Yes but you don't want to play the strongest team in the semi leave the tough one to the final, so you try to finish top, pick the weakest team and let the other two fight it out and you never know the strongest might get knocked out.

Iversen should be in that class, i know he isn't Tony Rickardsson but he should be able to beat our heat leaders.

We won't know if THJ is going well or not as his meeting for Berwick at Birmingham has been postponed.

Top riders don't need to have ridden a track before.

Exactly what I have been saying, we can only hope he gets back to form and to a lesser extent Klindt as well, probably find out tomorrow as they both rode well last time we were at Ipswich.

I thought I wasn't going mad, well not yet!

He could, he shouldn't but he could.

I thought Sundstrom did well over here , wasn't great for Poole though.

NKI is the best rider in either team, he should get more than 11, I would think 13. Sergeant could beat Wells the form Ricky is in , I don't expect him to get zero. Allen was just coming back from injury so expect much better this time. King has been in good form should get double figures. Lawson rode badly last time couldn't even pass Doolan, needs to improve massively on that form. Harris is so poor at the moment not expecting much from him either. Jack rode well last time but has been up and down should get double figures. Brady hasn't ridden there lately if ever so who knows probably get 6-8. Klindt rode well last time but has been poor lately so expect no more than 5-6 Josh rode well there but will be carrying an injury if he rides . Ricky rode well last time too but lately has been poor. Covatti rides the track well but not at reserve now. THJ has probably never ridden there, he isn't a gater so not expecting much. All in all inconsistency everywhere! Could be a cracker which is why I am going, got to be better than last time, we won last time but not a great meeting.

I don't think you saw the exclamation marks! On paper a close meeting could go either way.

I don't think Kurtz has ridden there for a long time, Covatti can only take one of Josh's rides plus he isn't at reserve now, Heeps is a big blow although he only got 3 last time Poole were there also Lawson scored poorly. a lot of ifs and buts so maybe a good close meeting, hope so as I am making the trip.

Gavan getting wound up about Poole surely not!

No true Wells should be replaced too.

The point with THJ is that he may fail and only score 2 or 3 points a meeting or he could score 6 or 7 , is he worth the risk ? absolutely.

I don't care what you call him as long as he scores lots of points!!

Can't see Belle Vue making the play offs.

He has never achieved that level in the uk whatever you think he should have done, 4.64 is his official rolling average .

yes he did I know i was there!

Yes but a bad decision at the time, i still think Wells needs to go, we need riders who will pull out all the stops for their team and he isn't that person.

I agree Wells was a bad signing should have kept NBJ but NBJ is injured now so would have had to get someone in sooner or later. Wells seemed to ride better when he guested for us.

Wells goes well at Wolves but he got zero last night!

If Swindon didn't have such a good team we would!

Maybe Swindon should lower their budget then they might lose less money.

Totally agree but he has gone off form lately but hopefully will be better in the play offs . I was just pointing out the lack of options.

Exactly Steve, who would you rather have THJ or Josh Auty or similar, there simply is no choice. the only other option would be to re-jig the team completely with a 3 pointer and maybe a rider like Klindt to get the sack.
