What a spoil sport. We Want Harris - We Want Harris - We Want Harris.

Sums up speedway today - so Harris of Peterborough rides for Ippo against Worky on Thursday and then for Edinburgh against Ippo on Friday after riding for Peterborough against Edinburgh last Friday. The handcart has lost its wheels. Now if only he could guest for Worky against Ippo on Saturday!! (Well Rye don't have a meeting so who knows!!) Near perfect symmetry!!

But at least that's a lot higher than your usual position over the years!!

Top man Sedgy.

Stroll in the park for Ippo even if Cookie does ride - gallop in the park if someone else is in his place.

Despite the attraction of seeing Cookie wiping the floor with Danking et al, I am going to give this one a miss as part of my one man protest at the management approaches of the East Anglian clubs (and the utter ineptitude of the BSPA).

Wonder how many won't bother coming back after seeing no racing for a month or so and then and then nothing for an hour and a half after seeing just 1 race? Even us paupers have double paramedic cover.

Unbelievable performance from the weej... ... all that money and they cannae afford extra medical cover.

Certainly holder must have been in a race of his own in heat 15 - can't see him in the first 3!

Sedgy has been toiling with a shoulder injury for a few months now.

Couldn't have put it better myself!! You're catching on!!

Yes of course so he will. Silly me to forget that - I assume Buster will forget too.

Sedgy instead of Oystercard and r/r for BWD. Depends which Sedgy turns up. The Scottish Open winner from earlier in the season or Ippo's current version. And we have the Lesser Lindgren instead of Smiling Sam who'll be in hospital.

I knew I was right not to like Peterborough.

Every team would pick us given the choice.

Trouble is you seem to have stopped riding at home.

Well we kept it tight for a while. Well deserved humping by Real Tiggers. Can't rely on the heat leaders to win every race to keep us in it. Hope Smiler is ok. Might need a couple of miracles when Erik's big bro comes back but in fairness we have too many weaknesses to threaten even if we did scrape into the play-offs.

Not even top now though. As Simon or garfunkle once sang - "slip slidin away"!

Really tight match ahead with the proper tiggers (not the pretend version who were at fox holes last night).

Nope - guest / r/r as appropriate I expect.

Probably get a "facility"!

Obviously based on performances in the Aussie Champs. Watt was flying in the early rounds of them. Does seem strange to give him the slot when he's now retired though. Even Crumpie would have been a better shout but probably would have nicked a lot of points off some of the fancied runners.

Have to say that apart from the lesser twin, Weegies were mince.

And well deserved too. As is Smiler's place in the main gig.

Millionaires struggling at ippo tonight. Only good teams win away at fox holes.
