Great ride by Cook who was hugely impressive all night, but Worrall suffered a puncture on that last lap, his rear tyre was as flat as a pancake going over the finish line.

Heat 14.....

But I think I agree with crescent girl, other than the four point result (away win by 7 or more) which is exceptional, all the other scenarios involve three points being won or shared....in effect an away loss by six or less meant pinching a match point off the home team and provided more last heat deciders. As an aside I'd get rid of tacticals for the home team, if you are that far behind on your own circuit then hard luck.

Oxford Lambert & Bewley graduating to world class status BSN Workington's 'new' track Brennan, Flint, Edwards and Jenkins all making strides as FTR's Struggling after that!

Feel exactly the same about him at Lynn, he is on quite a high figure in the Prem but I'd have him back for 2023. Mr Dependable.

That would be utterly ridiculous. It's not complicated, just get the season done earlier.

Pairs and CLRC?

I'm not sure a practice session can be compared to hundreds or thousands of laps round a teams own track but it is what it is and once Poole got dialled in Leicester came up a long way short. The fact that Poole's top three dropped one point to the opposition after heat three says it all. Even though it was cold it was an enjoyable night's racing and good to catch up with a few people before the winter. Wish the track could be like that more often, just too grippy in the summer months.

I expect you are right and I wouldn't be surprised if Lynn have their team sorted anyway.

Lots of bleating from the Poole lot that the Thompons were dirty on Kemp but didn't see it myself, was a good, hard race.

Anyway the main reason I came was for the racing and in amongst a few FTG's it was pretty good, Lynn is at its best when it's slick.

Pirates at a canter even though they are a five man side, as expected the Cooks had no problem getting round Lynn. Feel for Leicester, they finished top and haven't had a home leg but the most important thing is that the sport learns from this shambolic season and if it doesn't the clear the hierarchy out and start again.

Can see every club in the Prem going after him.

30th heat of the tie, not sure I'll be hanging around for too many races of the second meeting!

I'm going tonight despite having only been to a few Lynn meetings this year and as well as all fourteen riders being there with no R/R or guests the fact its 50/50 is a massive draw for me. Its gonna be cold so hopefully the racing will be good and the result goes to the 30th heat!

The Cooks should take to it like ducks to water, Aussies always have.

Seeing as it was dark by ten to five last night I doubt it Maybe a moon delay if its too bright

Forecast is unbroken sunshine and moonlight for today in Nelson's county! As for practice, I'd have thought any team can do it an any time on their own circuit, and that exactly what Leicester are doing today so it's not even an issue really.

And Jamie Smith's dad going after Roger Lobb with a massive spanner.

But probably better than not running a second leg at all.

I think the only people who can possibly answer that are those who have set foot on the Leicester circuit and the AFA, anyone else (ie you, I and the vast majority of forumites) are just guessing. What I would say is that there is no other reason Leicester would logically want it moved other than the fact that they can't stage it.

Why can't Jakobsen (an Extraliga rider after all) get round Owlerton? Weird.

VERY wet in Norfolk today, forecast got worse over night and due to rain til lunch, and then what looks like a sunny dry day tomorrow. Happy to post weather updates in case any of you lot are planning to take on the journey

Because the whole reason we are trying to get the biggest meetings of the season ridden in October and November is the shambolic summer fixture list that he oversaw. Might pop along to this if the weather is ok and I can be bothered, for one last speedway fix. At least all fourteen riders should be there!

Klindt CBA?
