Taking half a meeting to adapt to track conditions isnt acceptable at the business end of the season. Did the Glasgow riders mis-judge the track walk, did they ask for it to be ultra slick, did they even know what they were getting beforehand? Whatever it was it can't happen again, we have some hefty points deficits to claw back in our next two home meetings. Its all very well bringing in Andy Meredith to boost our GP or SGP2 chances next season but if it is affecting our core product its a no for me. Lets prep the track to suit our riders wherever possible, its brings the best out in them and allows the racers to shine.

Really important that the reopening meeting goes smoothly. it needs to start on time and run at a decent pace. Both teams are running R/R so many riders will need extra time.  get tonight right and mildenhall will thrive however if we go back to four hour marathon I fear it will be the final nail.  im looking forward to seeing some racing tonight and I wish everyone the best of luck. 

Do wonder if Pijper could have been given extra rides, he might have been given heat 12 ,possibly to beat Thompson? Heat 14 to replace Zischke? ( two zero’s from three rides ). Probably why I’ve never been a T.M.

Yes extremely childish. He had just won a fantastic race on the last lap and was full of adrenaline. Do you not expect a rider to celebrate ? Admittedly he was poor for the rest of the night, but maybe he knew that himself and he was trying to psych himself up.

The Premiership is in a mess,looking for get out clause.

It depends who you speak to. Race night is an issue. The preference is to keep Fridays. How strong that preference is varies a little. But at the moment, the Premiership does not have enough upside to mess with a setup they seem to be happy with (crowd numbers, mainly).
