As a neutral I was at both and enjoyed both meetings but the Somerset meeting and track was far better than the Poole one. The thing is the meeting at Poole was pretty much standard for what I've seen there, not brilliant but not bad whereas the meeting at Somerset was a bit below the usual standard but still some cracking racing. My view only but as said I'm a neutral with no bias either way

At 17 he should be getting the riding / rest balance right. He won't because all youngsters want to do is ride there bike. Hope doing to much doesn't cause tiredness resulting in an injury. Cracking looking rider though. Luckily for me I'm in the lakes so missed last nights defeat

So why have it then, won't stop me going like TWK but a bonkers rule. It's supposed to be a professional sport not its a knockout

The only way it can be the stars fault is if they don't hand over the copies on time,so someone's telling porkies. I know who my monies on

It's not the stars fault it doesn't get delivered on time it's the useless Royal Mail. I worked there long enough to know the place is a shambles. Besides ,it being 24 hours late is not the end of the world

I think that's what he said about the Belle Vue and Wolves riders

He said on the mic at Somerset he didn't want to run with it because he felt it short changed the fans

Bet they sort al-Qaeda out before they sort British speedway out

At Somerser last night the announcer said if there's any newbies here talk to the person standing next to you to explain the rules. Good luck with that I thought

Looked a good crowd at Exeter

Very true in marriage as well rd

Ok thanks for that Steve, couldn't remember anywhere to put a seat

Fliss44 , let the family down they'll forgive you. There will be other family lunches. The wife's just asked for a cup of tea before I go to the speedway tomorrow. She asnt asked where I'm going or what time I'm getting up. It's Poole and I'm getting up at 5. I apologise in advance for the swearing in the morning which most of you will hear. Lol

Bringing a couple of chairs along to watch from the back straight at the ota , is it worth taking them into Poole, if yes where's the best place to park ourselves. I know there's seats but imagine they will be rammed

Anyone agree that both teams shouldn't have r/r , this league should be more about giving the youngsters meetings. Surely two similiar standard riders could have been given a meeting

Saw him at Swindon against Poole I think it was just before he's accident and couldn't believe the lines he was taking and how wide he was going. Remember thinking at the time how special he was on a bike, tradgedy for speedway and the fans but obviously more for him

They don't seem to get it do they. Haven't been to Stoke for a few years because it's a shambles. Should be a decent track but it isn't . I know some fans say if you don't support the tracks they will shut but to be honest some of them don't deserve to be running. Since we came back I can't remember one meeting Monmore Green where it's been run poorly. There's been a couple of times where the track could have been better but in every case there was understandable reasons for it. As far as I can remember there's only been the once at Perry Barr where they got the track wrong

Ok, thanks for the info

I'm a few miles from monmore, was thinking 5.45 should get me there for a little after 9. Gives me 2 hours to spare before the meeting starts

The way I feel il be happy to get to 60!!!!! Then have a try for 70

Setting out at 5.45, can't really start much earlier, it's gonna be a long day. Hope it's worth it

Might be boring but important when travelling over 3 hours to put money into Pooles coffers and want the car to be safe to able to get upto Somerset later then to get back home. Thanks to all who gave parking info. Sorry to bore anyone not interested

Coming down for both of these, although I've been to Poole a few times what's the size of the car park like. What time do you recommend to get there to park up ok

At least with wrestling it doesn't try to claim to be something it's not
