Thanks FP - I'll strike them off my list. Frozen chips I can cope with (once they are cooked) but not the fish.

And maybe they'll do a delivery service to the back straight?

OK thanks. Back straight might be a bit far to carry the new 5* gourmet fish and chips though especially if we have to clamber over a building site.

So how much in the way of spectating areas will be available on Saturday? Will it just be the home straight? Might put in a guest appearance to suss out the East Anglian opposition.

Can't disagree with that GB.

Adam is certainly not winning for fun tonight! Clegg's on fire though!

Josh by half a lap

Bold prediction.

Is that because his name is Barker?

From his radio interview he's not planning to retire. Wants to be back in 2 to 3 weeks though the hospital have said 6 to 8.

That might be a bit too brave for his own good.

When's he due there? Certainly looked an innocuous fall that put him out last year.

I wish I didn't live in Essex, but Berwick? Nah!!

Get yourself out to the Showground at Peterborough customhouseregular!!

And being without Simon L for a couple of home matches, which means a guest replacement, makes r/r even more of a hit or miss gamble.

It's fine as a short term. But reserves having to take a minimum of 5/6 rides plus any replacement rides puts a big strain if it goes on for a couple of months.

I think r/r for the number 5 puts far too much pressure/strain/reliance on the reserves if used for more than the occasional meeting. Especially away from home.

Agree Lukas.

Have you read his side of that story?

Still the same poncey background for the stills though! Better if a track background.

Decent video.

Poncey setting is it not?

Agreed

I'm totally ambivalent about them. Maybe because I'm not a big fan of race suits.
