Yeah good point, never thought of that. No doubt he will have another season ending slide off in his opening ride of the first meeting.

Nothing would surprise me due to the farcical way the sport is run in GB!

Have Plymouth got a facility for Barker? If they have it shouldn't be allowed for a rider who has failed a drugs test. How is Kennett's 'injury' coming along? I suspect he will retire once Plymouth fulfill this season's fixtures!

No thanks.

Two joke line ups! Birmingham appear to have given up booking poor guests to save money on the wage bills. Both teams should have their licences suspended until they can track a half decent side of their own rather than 4 guests each.

Terrible racetrack. Worse than I remembered. Good night if you are a tractor fan though. Never seen so much grading at a speedway track on a clear dry night!

Birmingham should have forfeited the meeting to save what is going to be extremely expensive night for Poole through no fault of theirs.

Might see 14 guests in this meeting.

Poole are going to have a stonking wage bill to fork out for tonight.

Just let them get away with it then and it will happen more often!

Agreed. Apart from the odd rider like Doyle all of the 1st division riders also ride 2nd division. The 2nd tier is too strong for many NDL riders to progress.

An absolute disgrace. Birmingham speedway should be sanctioned for putting that team out!

Well done to Plymouth's 3 riders! Had Oxford down for the win!

Exactly.

Thought it was called the Mickey Mouse trophy.

Also the KOC 2nd leg up at your place in a week or so.

He would have to go some to do any worse to be fair! The signing doesn't overwhelm me at all but Roynon has had plenty of meetings to turn things around and had to go. They needed to try something different. Not sure Bickley is the answer but if he can score 3 - 4 points consistently then it's an improvement!

Doesn't matter where Roynon rode he struggled to beat the opposite reserves.

Fortunately no.

Unfortunately no.

Should never have signed him in the first place.

I fancy Leicester, Poole, Glasgow, Plymouth, Scunthorpe and now Oxford with addition of Summers ahead of Redcar at the moment.

Such a shame MPT couldn't finish the meeting.

He did mention that he was struggling with his fitness himself over the microphone a few weeks ago at Redcar when he fell off whilst a mile in front.

Carried 3 passengers at Birmingham last night and 1 all season. Not good enough and may miss out on the play off if a change isn't made. James Wright?
