These newspapers will do anything to sell a few more copies. Disgusting. Strange old match last night. Meandering along in favour of Ippo, 10 points up and cruising and then wham bam, Good-Old-Pantomime-Villain Eddie knocks off the EL Superstar but not so good in the PL Joseph Jacobs and throws in a Dubbly Jubbly folowed immediately by a master class from Rye's two young Aussies #2015Legend Rob and Cammie Heeps over One-Trick-Pony Nico and all of a sudden the lead is down to 1 and it's squeeky bum time in Ippo. And what reward does #2015Legend Rob get for his efforts (2 wins)? Zilch - pack up your kit and go home Rob. We don't want/need you in heat 14, we'll stick with 2-point-Lanham. Hmmm. Wish you were back with the Monarchs Rob. But Ippo just about deserved the win, mainly down to British-Champ-in-the-Wet Danny King and Benjamin Yes-I'm-Wearing-My-Panthers-Kevlars Barker. Ippo's reserves were pretty patchy and well humped by Rye's pair, but they'll probably score more in the future than even folk hero Paco would have done. Track seemed a bit more like its old rough bumpy self. And the watering can was out a few times. A bit like the lights on the 1st & 2nd bends. Just like being back at Peterborough - "is there an electrician in the house?". And a decent effort by the BSF Massif. Shame we were pretty much ignored by the Ippo team - only Good-Old-Pantomime-Villain Eddie acknowledged our presence. And as for the referee - well let's not go there.

Did Mr. Heeps lose to Jye Etheridge on Tuesday Macca? Just interested since I heard Jye scored 6+3.

Nothing lasts for ever. Cookie was nigh unbeatable in the second half of last season and he has dipped a fair bit this season.

Sign Cookie and I might go every week!! But pay the transfer fee for him, we need the money!!

I think Nicholls has just got to the very inconsistent stage of his career. Not convinced he would be value for money on that average.

Kennett will drop at least 2 points, unless King has already sent his best bikes to Cardiff!!

That's a step too far!!

I always used the park and rides in Cardiff. And I don't like Lewis Bridger or Ashley Morris!!

What's Konopka doing nowadays? Or Dilger? They would do you proud. Or Jye Etheridge? I actually think he has been desperately unlucky this season and could make it over here. I heard he scored 6+3 at Kings Lynn earlier in the week in one of those new format trial meetings.

I've drawn a blank too!!

Dangerous. She'll think all speedway stadiums are like that!!

You sound like you know what you are talking about!! Come and join us!!

@amce41 I read that Joe Jacobs has now left IOW.

Need to be there by 6pm to join the queue Macca if you want to be sure you get in in time to see the first race. Should be a pretty close match I reckon. But don't see Robson scoring 10/11 away from home. When did he last? So I vote for a home win. Unless Rob #2015Legend scores double figures.

Wonder what the real world is for you? Anyway I'm pleased you're pleased with your 3 man team.

Well we'll probably meet up at ippo tonight along with various other BSF members so hopefully you won't be there.

Nice one! OK. Panthers are a 3 man team.

Not you NEP. Always very fair.

I've been quaking in my boots. He might send his ma round.

I see Rob #2015Legend had a heavy fall at Lynn tonight and didn't take the heat 15. Started with 3 wins so assume the fall was the reason.

Careful bruv - you'll get slagged off like me and Shads if you say anything negative in this thread!

Then run the risk of hour long ambulance delays before the main event can start.

The missus likes him - but I won't "Tell Her About It".

Will they have the Germany v France footy match on the giant screens on the centre green tomorrow night? And will there be a sound system which reaches the back straight stands?

I used to have one of these wooden ratchet rattle thingys. Must have lost it when they shut down Old Meadowbank in 1967.
