So, how are you enjoying that humble pie?

Just like to say Good Luck to Stuart Robson after he announced tonight that this season would be his last. Been a great servant to Newcastle and also British Speedway in general. Also well done Archie Freeman in winning the 150cc Youth Championship with four qualifying wins and a win in the Grand Final.

Maybe thinking wrong here, but did I not read somewhere that, because it's a re-arranged fixture, Comets are allowed a facility? Now, the problem is, I don't know if the Polish fixture is a re-arranged match as well!!

Not quite everyone. Eric Thornton (Newcastle Diamonds Speedway Star contributor) had you top of the league, in the pre-season "Bumper Issue."

Comets will use Aaron Summers and Kevin Doolan as guests for Klindt and Bewley respectively and R/R for Proctor: http://www.workingtoncomets.co/news/article.asp?id=101009

There is no problem with the forecast for Sunday at Newcastle.

A couple of added attractions for this one. The British Junior Championship Final follows the main meeting. Eight heats of qualifiers and a Grand Final (hence the earlier start time of 5.30pm) and also Kenni Larsen is over from Denmark and will be at Brough tomorrow night. It will be great to see him again: http://www.newcastlediamonds.co/news/article.asp?id=100925 Diamonds will use R/R for Matej Kus, not sure about the Comets line-up!

He put on Facebook this morning that his season is over.

Heavy fall last week while riding for Wolves, tried riding through the pain, but was advised to rest.

Yes, it is now. What I was trying to say is it didn't used to be.

You could never have a tac ride before heat 5. You're right in thinking heat 8 used to be protected, but my dodgy memory is telling me that was scrapped, but brought back this season, but I could be wrong though.

After heat 4 and upto and including heat 14, with the exception of heat 8.

R/R tomorrow too: http://www.newcastlediamonds.co/news/article.asp?id=100921

I thought Matty Wethers battled for his 5+2 as well.

I thought Ludvig would be number one on the new averages? (Ludde 6.77, Stu 6.69)

Anyone got the official 1-7 line-ups for this one please?

Anyone got the official 1-7 line-ups for this one please?

But the website said they were going to be using Anders Rowe (of Kent) last night.

In other words, nobody had the forethought of this happening when the fixtures where agreed before the season started. the fixtures were agreed to at the start of the season, so should have stood. This not through rose-tinted glasses, but from a neutral, who just wants to see rules and structure adhered to.

Mikkel B Andersen has declared himself unfit, so Coty Garcia guests:

I think you have to book in advance for the Panarama Restaurant, but the bar area will be open. Perhaps a Sheffield person (or anyone that knows?) will be able to confirm?

Line-up change. Stuart Robson (withdrawn from the Glasgow match on Friday night) OUT - Tero Aarnio IN

Ok. I thought (obviously incorrectly it seems) you could miss 24 hours either side of the event (presumably for travel arrangements to get to and from far off places),

As far as I can see, they used R/R for James Shanes, who was representing GB at the World Longtrack Team Cup, which is an FIM event, so can't see what Sheffield have done wrong (if this is what is being asked).
