Sheffield have overall strength now especially at reserve although Sedgeman maybe a concern, Kerr could be a great signing at reserve, Belle Vue have a definite weakness at reserve.

I expect Doyle did not take part as he had a fall earlier in the meeting.

It is what happens when the teams are mismatched.

Zach seems to have gone up a level this season which is to our benefit and Belle Vue's. I agree Tobias was very impressive and now he has had a season he will be better at away tracks too. Apart from Marson I thought all the team looked good, didnt think Starke was great at Oxford but was better last night although against weaker opposition.

Marson is a poor rider, we just have to cope with 6 riders at the moment and it was boring for some partly because the Pirates have a much better team, Plymouth looked poor and partly because we won which doesnt suit some peoples agenda.

I doubt if the forecast is much different in either area and the NSS has far better drainage so I cant see why anyone would think they have a hidden agenda. It could be said having guests improve the team!

To be fair I havent seen him ride much this season, sounds like his attitude has improved, always had plenty of ability.

I dont really rate Flint, he usually has quite a few off nights, Kemp has definitely improved but I still think he has a attitude problem.

Could be another long season for Plymouth, expected better from Klindt .

Yes he is a likeable lad and to be fair Gilkes only passed Starke but looked a great move at the time. I really thought at the start of last season Sam was a great signing for Poole but seemed to falter as the season progressed.

He did make a great pass on the last bend in one race though.

Yes I agree he deserves an injury free season and better luck and you are correct early days. Hope he has a great season.

We must be doing something right then.

But that wouldn't fit with Gavan's anti Poole agenda.

Yes I am sure you are right, early days, shouldn't judge after one meeting, Anders will be better too, I would rather riders stayed safe at this stage of the season.

Kerr is meant to be a top rider in this league. Anders will come good, not so sure about Kerr, very impressed by Zach, top performance.

Anders will be fine, 6 points away in your first meeting is not terrible. Kerr is more of a concern.Marson looked poor not sure he would do any better against a 2 point reserve.

Kerr was a worrying signing for me and not a great start to his Pirates career. I agree we should have got Vinnie back, Starke did ok but Foord is a rider who is hungry for success. Anders started well then faded but I think he will be fine.Lawson hasnt been great for Kings Lynn but looked better tonight, different league I know but definite improvement.

I think you will nick it and your debutant looks a decent prospect although wouldn't expect too much in first meeting. Looking forward to it, should be good in the Oxfordshire sunshine.

We will make up for it! Hope it is a good meeting, don't expect to win but should be close. Neither Lawson or Masters on top form currently and we have new superstar Matt Marson!

No I am expecting some riders will have off nights but we have a rider at reserve who should be able to take extra rides and get points. I think Hodder has potential to be that rider with a little improvement.

Be interesting to see how he goes, sure to beat Matt Marson I would imagine.

Ellis had the audacity to beat him after a bit of jostling at the tapes which Wright didn't like I expect.

The trouble is when one of the top five have an off night and I can see Flint or Boughen having a few.

Ok well he hasnt hit form yet like so many others, be interesting on Wednesday to see who performs better Masters or Lawson as they both struggled last night
