Why can't people just record the GP? Then you get to see more speedway. Could it be the admission prices, what are they like compared to other tracks?

Didn't tracks used to have to be actually waterlogged before you can call it off like in the 90s or whatever. I mean some days down here the forecast has been for thundery showers during an afternoon, and guess what? Nothing! Forecasts seem to be a bit risky in this country. I hope for the fans sake it was the correct decision as if Peterborough don't get many dates, it would a shame to miss one.

That's weird because when test and trace phoned me up cos my 9 year old caught it a month ago. I asked about if you had to do a test near the end of the ten day isolation, they said not to do another test because you can stay positive for up to 90 days!

Oh no!! This no2 position sure has a curse on it! I blame ZK if he didn't let people down (apparently) and get himself sacked, we'd be okay.

Ermm different tracks!! How many did he get last time at Poole? Wasn't that 2 as well? So no difference!

Someone's got their pants in a twist! No, I wouldn't want to watch speedway every week at Plymouth but then I wouldn't want to watch it at Eastbourne either. I am not a fan of small tracks and even less interested in whatever Zane is doing. Although wasn't Zane at Poole last week watching? Bit weird to attend a meeting when you've been sacked, but okay!

Roundabouts in Poole bigger than the Plymouth track! Not that I have a problem with it. But it was mentioned on the KL vs Sheffield thread that the reason Josh did so well there is because he prefers the bigger tracks, so not surprising he did better today than Tuesday!

Sam and Richie have ridden the Poole track loads in the past though. It was mentioned Josh likes bigger tracks? And everywhere must be bigger than Plymouth!!

See I told ya. Although Edinburgh took their time to get going! Good meeting though.

Well they were racing..... ....for last place!!!! I can understand when it happened when double points were involved but not so much anymore.

Poole is more of a fair track than Plymouth. I expect a closer meeting.

Oooh interesting! He normally rides at 3 for Plymouth so should do okay at reserve.

Yeah but are they putting sports on that would be on during the day later on instead of speedway? If Olympics aren't the reason then not looking too good!

Be interesting to see if more meetings are shown after the Olympics has finished!

Me either. But didn't Klindt recomend NBJ, so I guess he knows what he is talking about!

Haha, 3 top league meetings tonight and not one on tv. Maybe they miss us lol.

I'm sure it was discussed when deciding to drop down a league was being discussed as it was out in the media pretty quickly that Middlo wasn't able to do all the away meetings. But seeing as BCD isn't in the local area for the media coverage, we'll let his cynical view off, for now!!

On paper I agree. But depends what some of their riders think of the Poole track (who haven't been before). Also depends who is guesting for Ben.

Covering the league well then?! The promoters can't be getting much in the way of tv money!

I thought i read they came third overall?

LOL! Do you still have to win by 7+ away to get the extra point?

This could be a tougher test for the Pirates than Leicester potentially. Sam Masters Richie Worrall Josh Pickering Nathan Greaves Kyle Thomson William Lawson Luke Crang (speedway updates line ups) Obviously Masters and Richie know how to ride Poole well. I think Nathan has been at Poole before with Swindon, think he did alright. But I am not sure about the others? However considering they won at Glasgow definitely not to be undersetimated. Edit - not sure if there is any news on Ben yet or guest and I guess the no2 position isn't filled yet?

Poole at reserve for Sheffield, so they should do alright!
