He rode last night, they are away tonight.

You knew where he was, you were watching the SEC!

Dirty Nicki at it again in the 18th. I seriously hope he was checking on Ljung and not blaming him for the exclusion. At least he admitted he needed to be excluded even tho he said he was ahead.

Can't see past belle Vue winning although the experience of Poole cannot be written off.

Agree to a point. Enough stay to watch the DL to make it worth pursuing. However like you say it's a minority. Plenty of amateur/next generation riders desperate for track time to give those who want to watch more racing to make it worthwhile.

Given our 2 performances at Wimborne road this year it would make you overwhelming favourites if we are paired together in the PO's. Like you say over 2 legs 'shouldn't be a problem'.

Wolves have 6 home matches so it's not impossible for us either. However with the Aces having a match in hand and 6 home matches to come as well its unlikely they might suffer a late season collapse. Poole are in an even better place with the meetings in hand. Winning those meetings in hand is a different thing however. You have 6 away meetings to, it's assuming you can get something out of those matches. If you do then it makes Poole and the Aces overwhelming favourites for the final. Belle Vue still the team of the year so far.

King? What meetings has he missed? He hasn't been injured has he? Yes true I'm aware of that however all have been back in action for the past few weeks haven't they?

Barker as a squad member has replaced Garrity until he is fit. Who else has been missing then??

Holder has 13+1 on official site say has to be paid 2nd in 7th so must have been 3rd.

Can see a Leicester win of 10 or more.

But it was a big part! Joonas got 10 last time, Schlein got 2 this. However your other points are pretty valid too.

No way thanks. That would be awful.

As expected a comfortable home win. Wright scored to Pedersen's average so not too weakened. Wolves on the other hand had a dreadful replacement. Good to hear a good crowd in to watch one of their play off rivals.

Lions can nick this one.

Aces by 12.

Schlein is hardly in any good form tho! Joonas top scored with ten points last time so he must have decided he likes it a bit now. I'd be surprised if Schlein gets half that, obviously I will be delighted if he matches it!

Bad news for both sides with the sad news for Bjarne and Kylmakorpi ill. Schlein will give it his best but is a poor replacement for Joonas.

Who is this Lindberg fella? I'd like to think we can take a point but it will be extremely tough. 48-42

Has it started raining yet?

Lambert is the real deal. His 3 points were scant reward for his efforts. Rather lambert than Fricke any day.

The A fixture was the best meeting of the season at Monmore from a racing perspective so if the weather holds out I hope for something similar. The Bees are always a danger at Monmore so despite their rather rubbish side I wouldn't write them off pushing us for a result. On paper 53-39 but it might be closer than that.

It would have made much more sense having Hancock and 3 of the next generation in the line up. Fisher and Janniro are no different to Hancock being in the line up. The next generation would learn more from Hancock.

It's clearly wrong then.

Yet are allowed in Cardiff, a much grander stadium. There is clearly a reason for the ban but it makes a mockery when they are allowed in other arenas (noise pollution exempt).
