Surprised Broc is struggling, thought he'd be okay there. Not surprised the pole is struggling though!

Do Glasgow need the 4 league points tonight to potentially finish in top 2 of the table or is 3 enough?

But you weren't talking just about last night. You said about them being rubbish at other tracks which obviously is nowhere near the truth and is what I was replying to, considering Redcar fans raved about Basso when we were there and also Cook at Glasgow, those have been their stand out tracks for each of them. Also Hume was good at Edinburgh. All tracks that will be in the playoffs too, so that helps. Excuse me but if you are top of the league then you must be quite good! Sorry if you don't like it but not really my problem.

The only advantage for being top is choosing what team to face in the SF's. But what if you choose the wrong one!

Common sense tbf

LMAO!! That's hilarious. Oooh 87-87 on agg, so Scunthorpe just as bad as us lol

It should be close I think. Redcar stronger now with Lewis Kerr. All of their top 5 have had quite a few meetings at Poole with other teams when we were in the prem. Jordan Jenkins also had one meeting at Poole in 2019 i think and had a few practices there, so only Ryan Kinsley who would be their first time.

Have to win at Poole and beat Leicester though. Or win at Poole by 7 and draw at home to Leicester (but that would be down to points difference?) Not going to be easy! As long as we can hold on to top 2, that's enough for me.

Interesting. Do Wolves really want to give Sheffield's weakest 1-5 rider extra practice before the playoffs If Wolves went with r/r, could everyone be eligiable for a ride?

Ian Rankin on Twitter: "Who doesn’t love the glamour of speedway? Edinburgh Monarchs about to take on the might of Birmingham!! https://t.co/4L2iCN0q1M" / Twitter Where I saw it and also in the comments, Richard Osman is 'always up for speedway' ! Who knew lol.

Think you've hit the nail on the head there!

Yes they prob wanted to stay safe so didn't race. I don't think any Poole fan is disputing that. However what makes me laugh is one scunny fan saying spits and spots before the meeting and one saying a downpour. There is quite a big difference between the two!!

Only thing I would say is it wasn't a 'must win' for Poole, someone has said Poole riders complained about the track. So they obv didn't feel safe on it. With playoffs coming up in both leagues they are not going to risk it. Esp when Stef's injury fresh in their minds.

This was already a restaging, I guess they are worried about not doing it before the cut off. No one got hurt, that is the main thing.

Plus over 2k miles this week (7 meetings in 7 days), he posted on twitter.

I hear Edinburgh had a famous fan in the crowd tonight!

Your point you made. But I'm not surprised you don't know what it is! Lol

Yes I'm sure the Brum meeting would have been fresh in their minds if it was as wet as you say. If one of them picked up an injury, it wouldn't just affect us, could affect Wolves, BV or Sheffield as well.

Not really. I just disproved your point. But if you mean your original point was irrelevant, then yes I agree.

Haha. Yeah, because you know we have beaten most teams over two legs. Doesn't mean we will in the playoffs, but will give the riders confidence.

I'd expect Glasgow to win but I have learnt this season not to underestimate Berwick!

Okay TP. Go through the fixture list and see who we haven't beaten over 2 legs. I'd say it's looking okay. Glasgow and Leicester main threats imo.

Ha, yeah. Quicker than Ussain Bolt on here when we lose! Lol. Scunthorpe were just the much better team tonight. Need to beat Redcar on 22nd now to make sure we stay top 2.

You mean you missed an actual legitimate reason! I can believe it

Why? Nothing was reported to be wrong with it. Sometimes you just beaten by the better team. With the two Ben's first time there, was gonna be tough especially if they didn't take a liking to it. Gilkes seemed to do alright, just not meant to be tonight.
