You are a very sad person to keep coming out with the old schoolboy jokes.

Wolves choked tonight to lose by 10 at home.

Shame he wasn't spoken to when he was at Poole!

You see you can be amusing when you try!

No still has plenty to offer.

I do he would be terrific at a track he loves.

Can’t see them keeping it close and Batchelor will struggle to beat Thorsell and Masters at Monmore but this meeting Swindon should win fairly comfortably.

I think only light rain so hopefully not enough to call the meeting off.

Forecast isn't great Thursday so Swindon may have the second leg after all.

Hoho my sides are bursting!

The main advantage of finishing first in the league is to choose opponents, the reason most teams choose to have the home leg second is to celebrate with more of their fans if they win.

So you don't want the playoffs on tv anymore? I think tv has been good for the sport in general. I would prefer the home leg second so you can celebrate the victory if you win at your home track but it wouldn't have changed the result of the first semi in my opinion.

Poole had to have the fist leg, not their choice it was forced upon them.

I can excuse Kurtz a little but Holder has not been consistent at all, more often than not coming last in his first heat. Mistakes were made that is clear, I said at the time, they should have got Wells as a temporary replacement for Worrall to see how it went before dumping NBJ who had done little wrong, then we would have had more options, once that error was made as you say we should have got any rider of similar average to Worrall just to ensure Covatti stayed at reserve, I suggested Josh Auty as his average fitted but as long as the rider coming in was higher than Covatti we would have been able to cover an off night for another rider. Anyway all water under the bridge now but we need to learn from our mistakes.

I would expect Wolves to race at home on the Monday if they beat Swindon and if Swindon win then Swindon at home on the Thursday. I think Ipswich probably would be more flexible.

I would see how it goes with Wolves first before you gloat too much!

No lump in my throat, can't win every year. I wasn't sympathetic when you missed out on the playoffs as i predicted so no sympathy required..

Yep totally agree.

Yes totally agree Wells was a poor signing and NBJ should of been retained.

No excuses reasons, our top two riders didn't perform or show any fight whatsoever.

Also THJ was obviously injured which he should not have ridden.

Steve isn't making excuses just laying the reasons for the defeat. I thought it was a very honest and reasonable post.

Hope so.

Well done Ipswich terrific performance , Brady And Jack should hang their heads in shame.

No couldn't make it tonight, watching on tv.
