Forecast was awful for the weekend probably enough rain on Friday to ruin the track any way , the plan was to show the SWC after the meeting . 

I think Nicholls' injury and their inexperience at reserve has probably cost Plymouth; Berwick always seem to have a habit of flattering to deceive however good their team looks. That said they have been excellent at home, but have fallen apart away once or twice when looking good for the win.  Oxford were the big surprise for me although with a fully fit Riss I'm sure they'd have had a much better year.

After three heats it seemed like Berwick were going to throw last night's match, some come back from seven points down. Congratulations Bandits, bonus point well and truly won!

Well yes I wrote Scunny off, what happened to Berwick and Plymouth I kinda thought it could be a great year for those two. In fact of course Berwick are still in with a chance of a double. (BSN 58-31 behind, after away leg).

I must have imagined it when I watched them all race in the national league then. Riders always progress, rather than discredit the opposition, I prefer to give them credit and think it’s great to see riders like Luke Harrison, Will Cairns and Cooper Rushen developing and not only doing well in the championship but in the premiership as well 

Poole and Scunny win those semis pretty comfortably IMO. Then you'd have to fancy Poole strongly in the final, although what a story it'd be if Scunthorpe did it having been written off by all and sundry in March.
