Polish rider. Polish crowd, Polish stadium. No more to say.

Don't care what anyone else says on here - for me this afternoon that was indeed13 quid well spent...........Yes some will quibble about food/beer prices but all in all the whole arena, packed as it was, gave me exactly what speedway at its best can do for total enjoyment. Comets are back and it was great !!!!!......... Crowd estimates for me were above 2000..well packed in all available areas....the weather obviously added to the overall experience but roll on the next fixture..UTC.

Tigers win away , Monarchs pumped at home . If Carlsberg did Friday nights .

Replay shows Zmarzlik took out Doyle. Ref bottled it.

Awful decision, jus because of who he is and where it is.

Not even a racing line that Zmarzlik was taking... Far too narrow up the back straight meaning as soon as he threw the back wheel out he was going to make contact with Doyle.. Amazed Doyle didnt lamp him when he walked back... Bewley and Woffy both had chances to clamp their opponent on the line by coming across him, and didnt do it so got passed up the inside (again)... You dont win all GP's by just gating and going fast when in front... Interesting that when "chaos" was occurring the "veterans" that are always "full gas" ie Doyle and Lindgren come out of it in the best positions because they still go into potential dicey situations full pelt... Zmarzlik is certainly pushing his luck with his own health as for the past couple of years he has trodden a fine line between "genius" and "reckless".. One "unlucky" moment could have serious consequences for him...

He wasn’t in front tho Doyle was, he had more speed coming to the corner having made a longer straight but what’s Doyle supposed to do just turn right shut off and wave him through??? as others have said if it’s the other way round the decision goes the other way every time, zmarzlik gets every decision going it’s a joke

Good to see the Comets back, looks a lovely set up they have got. Best of luck to all involved.

Thats the wrong call, speedway is a shambles at every level.

Not for me, Zmarzlik forced a hole that wasn't really big enough for him to get through IMO. Lucky boy to be in the re-run.

No9 has been a problem since 2007. Speedway fans are a fickle bunch on so many levels. Tell them to stand in a place they don’t like standing to get a view doesn’t help. Then the stadium owners build a bus shelter blocking one of the few viewing positions. The opening years people would stand 10 rows thick in front the starting gate unable to see through the tall geezers at the front as the ground is flat. The stadium just isn’t designed for speedway and it erodes away the enjoyment of those first experiences for new fans. I’ve introduced four regulars 14 year olds they do love it. They go to Arthur Terry Four Oaks Sutton Coldfield. There are glimmers of hope. Get some bikes in the school, they must talk about it.

Sam Hagon looked good at Poole last Weds.

Plus we were all pisssed by the end

Any chance you lot could win a meeting at home?? Every week that goes by our result there looks worse

Noticeable that he tried it a few times, however, on such a small track he wasnt able to generate the speed he usually does on the bigger circuits for him to line up his "signature move"... The "bend three dive bomb" where he basically rides his opponents (who lift their leg up out of the way), up the track deep into bend four.. Doyle, Lindgren and Madsen are the three riders who seem to he able to stay strong and prevent him forcing them out... The rest all take evasive action and surrender position... Holder tonight showed some steel of his own, so maybe he too will now be less intimidated..

So if it’s a racing incident, surely common sense would suggest a rider coming from behind, travelling faster and consequently riding into the side another rider causing him to fall off then the rider that coming from behind has knocked him off surely! also zmarzlik front wheel was a fair bit off the white line, he could’ve left Doyle more room to turn also…but then the speed he was coming in at he was never gonna be able to hold the inside on the line he was coming in at, so Doyle’s choices were jump out of the way or get knocked off

He did. The race was over and should be awarded.

Save them for the toilets please

He's made a career of doing that. Has an incredible knack of always being on an employable average at the end of each season.

Brilliant cup tie that had a bit of everything and went right to the final heat. Pijper winning points from the back, very impressive. If Eurosport showed speedway like this it'd interest me again instead of endless FTG heats and Doyle et al finishing half a lap ahead of the rest. Knowledgable commentators also help enhance the product as they did last night.

I’m sure he’s a good guy and everything but he’s not bringing in the points

Unfortunately Vissing is renowned for being a dirty rider especially from the gate, he did try and take Douglas out when they met but failed

For that I'm about as good as the drains at Leicester.....

I'd say It's the same competition in the way the Premier League & the Championship are the same, the Elite League and the Premiership are they same and the Conference & National leagues are they same? The names may have changed but nothing else - apart from a 3 team final one-off final, which never happened, a 3 team final 3 legged event, which never happened. So now it's back to two teams for the final, it's virtually the same as the premier trophy, Championship shield, summer trophy etc

Great afternoon massive crowd racing was ok apart from the dust early doors!,one little niggle why was kelsey taken out of ht 14 surely harry was the one to be replaced,all in all great to see local action again .

Toft is a world beater when he rides for visiting teams at Scunny, put him in a Scunny race jacket very ordinary rider.

The biggest Homer referee of all time. Zmarzlik should have been excluded. Race should have been awarded. Holder and Doyle both robbed. Referee lost his bottle The speedway world is intimidated by Poland. When they say jump the rest of speedway says how high!

He's done it before, one of the better tactical divers.

Bloody boring Lindgren stole it. Rotten luck to Holder who had it stolen. Good news that Zmarzlik failed.

Justice.Zmarzlik even turned left on Holder over the line.

Shocking decision especially with all the evidence available.

Agree with that.. Shocking decision, cowardly ref.

Feel for Jack Holder. Had that in the bag.

Doyle knew what he was doing. Should be excluded for that.

Doyle laid it down.

Can't believe they've given Zmarzlik the Yellow?

Best 1st 4 heats in a GP for many a year

You really need to grow up.

The nature of the track makes for good hard racing.Blink and you history.Great track

Congratulations on your win last night Lisa commiserations on your relegation today I feel your pain on supporting a crap football team,my team Cambridge only stayed up on the last day of the season.

Think you'll find Mark builds the teams but obviously Garry does have a big input. But if you think Plymouth would be better with Matt as team manager you are delusional

They always are ,especially when there against your Team.

atleast mountain is racking a few quid for himself. He should have signed for a prem team. Leicester cough cough..

There’s nothing better than seeing your team win away from home, you don’t have to apologise for celebrating, most clubs just got no atmosphere these days, the happy clappers.

That competition you are bumping your gums about , can even remember who won it , was supposed to finish with a three team tournament at Sheffield. So when that got changed the three teams had more important matters to settle at the end of the season . Anyway back to last night , that was a terrific meeting and maybe we did go over the top celebrating at the end , but winning away from home is always brilliant

Watched the stream and must say what an excellent race track, best match I've seen this season, loads of overtaking

Hey it’s Iain B after all

Will never forget one of Mervyn’s first signings for Weymouth back in 1980 on a FREE transfer from Reading……Simon Wigg…..That has to be one of the best transfers ever.

Good luck to all involved!

No complaints from me ,poole deserving winners,Steve Worrall excellent.
