I agree about BSN, especially as I've bought a season pass. But I am pleased to say that I bought the stream and enjoyed the conclusion of this 2 leg semi final. It was a bit strange to see riders you'd expect to see scoring a few points, top scoring and established heat leaders really struggling. But that added to the drama. Some out-and-out committed riding in a "true" knock out competition.  Well done to both sides on both nights. A real racing competition.

Yep, Batchelor, despite getting a lot of hate, has never missed a meeting for us and he travels a long way. He may have his off nights but he's saved us a lot more than he's let us down. True captain. UTC!

Careless words and all that! Isn't that what they used to say?

The only negative tonight is Ben barkers injury and hopefully it’s not serious but if it is it’ll be interesting to see if the may make two changes.    I don’t know off the top of my head if there is someone on a 7.57 that can replace Bens points at home. I’m not sure how far Riss would be away but he could be a straight swap.   However you could possibly make 2 changes with barker and Spencer and that could cover the points. Would have 9.57 to cover for two riders. 

R/R worked out again ending with 10+1. Batchelor seemed to have more speed this week while his gating remains elite as ever, whereas Jeppesen seemed to struggle out the starts Max Perry impressive again, really good signing for us. Found something surprising looking at the stats seems like Batchelor has rode in every Comets meeting since the relaunch in 2024, 61 meetings in a row. Unless I'm mistaken, can't be many riders in British Speedway on that kind of streak for one club? (Lawson, Harris maybe??) Probably used to happen all the time years ago, but not so much in modern times.  

Klindt is just Dick Turpin in disguise.
