I believe there were 2 involved in the argument. So barking was not on the end of an assault. Cookie then got involved with a piece of equipment in the changing room which is what he got pulled out of the meeting for. But since you think the sport is SO BORING now, don't you think that livened things up a bit and gave us something to talk about? And bye the way, don't you think a little bit of handbags between 2 consenting adults (well one and a barking **) is a bit different to what barking was allegedly doing on Sunday.

Never thought Barker was a good guy.

Cheers.

I think we're talking about the barkinger boy now gazc.

What's the Masters / Roynon saga?

That's quite good for you jenga!!

How classy.

You're right macca - still buzzing!

But Erik Riss unbeaten in his 5 rides. Coming on to some good form.

It looks like.... Ding dong The Fish is back....... Pity it wasn't the full 4 points but it's certainly 3 more than I expected.

Yep i reckon bandits by 10.

Thought the burgers were better this year at Rye?

Are you calling my points "petty"?

Has Jye ever seen snow?

To the Scottish Cup semi final at Hampden do you mean?

Dickie must be gutted.

Maybe they were mindful that there was a helluva lot of rain around the area so didn't want to add more to the track in case it turned up? Fortunate to miss the weather I reckon. Best part of the night for me was Paco so very nearly getting a paid win in heat 14!! A slight mistake let Tofty through on the last bend but he was a mile ahead of Perry. Maybe just maybe there's a rider there!! Ritchings was certainly trying some different lines but to no avail. Those 2 are certainly a huge achilles' heel for Ippo and I'm not sure they will improve enough over the season to pay their way. The other 5 looked ok. I would quite like to see Covatti try some different tactics occasionally other than the blasts around the outside, even if they are good to watch. But maybe I don't see him often enough and he does it when I'm not there!! I thought Grondal was being touted as the best reserve in the whole wide PL? And Tofty looked on a par with one of the pre-meeting kids in his first race!!

PL Select to win by 10. PL Select number 1 to score 13.

Handy, very handy.

Lawson averages 5.28 at Armadale apparently.

Middle of August for a week.

Dump flu when he's not been near the place? And by the way we are not warmed up yet.

Was hammering down rain and some lightning on the A120 between Braintree and Colchester. Need to get through the heats quickly.

Damn it I'll risk it. Ritchie has just said the sun is out so it must be on!!

Now you can add - Wells was too pally with The Fish to score many - we missed Lawson's usual high scoring at the Dale
