Impartial observer here, but yours seems the bizarre comment. If a match is balanced to finish 45-45 or 46-44, wouldn't you find 8+1 more valuable than 7+2, if the 8 point rider gets you over the line where the 7 only gets a draw? Of course 8+1 is better than 7+2.  The bonus points are only for the paypacket.  They don't count towards the match score, nor the riders average.  in both match score and CMA calculation 8 is better than 7. So sorry, yours is the bizarre comment. The pay for the second half races wasn't enough for Doyle and Sayfutdinov to take part.  Fair enough.   They're subcontractors and have their own rates in mind.    

Edinburgh got more guests than the local B&B 😉

I believe Adam used the Godden at the SRBF meeting. He has had a Godden motor for a long while I remember him having it at Swindon whilst he was there

This is what I have to put up with. I get the trolls will trip themselves up whilst creating their imagined reality but I expect a level of consistency from the same poster. I don’t think you’re a troll and we can put this down as a mistake but please can I ask for a little less attitude and insults, we’re all (hopefully) speedway fans and can discuss things on here in a civilised manner. 

Disagree. The better meetings will be the “strugglers” at home to the top three.  The hammerings will come from the top three at home, but the fans of the struggling teams will see the better meetings. The meetings that Ipswich have ridden away have been decent contests.

I think Oxford might nick this one for some reason. A lot will depend on Tungate building on his showing at Sheffield. You just can’t get away with your number 1 scoring two or three points so they’ll need him firing here, same with Janowski. Riss knows his way around here too so could be a good close meeting.
