I can't imagine the UK being on his radar until the Polish league starts to wind down. Which is a pity as he would transform the side.

I wouldn't get too wrapped up in averages after just two or three meetings but you are right, if there are points available then we need to be ruthless and use them, will be tough on whoever gets the heave ho but we need to win meetings

Six hundred and sixty six pointer at the AFA next Thursday.

He definitely had bike issues, three primary chains went in three rides. Just one of those nights you can't account for. We need a win and a bit of continuity. Hopefully next Thursday v Brum, with seven fit riders one would hope.

Well done Monarchs, didn't think they'd get anywhere near 40. Definitely have a chance in the second leg.

I'm disappointed as his first two meetings were very encouraging. But it is what it is, I expect his Polish team have pulled rank, you wouldn't be surprised if the same happens to Wojdylo before long.

It's for Tarasenko withholding his services.

Really hard to say what will happen without knowing the Lynn team. If everyone is fit and available we ought to be pushing Oxford close but with a few debutantes at the circuit anything more will be a big ask. Nicholls guesting is a big bonus for the Cheetahs.

What's all this ranting and raving based on? Was anybody expecting us to go over and beat the Czechs in their own back yard?

I don't disagree but it's to get his third ride out of the way surely?

I think his poor score in Poland has led to one or two people putting two and two together and getting considerably more than four. By all accounts it all seems completely beyond his control and just one of those things, I guess it might make him want to get an earlier flight in future so there is some wriggle room if necessary.

It's not the bottom league, it's the second division of three. And it's a pretty good standard. Milik is better than his scores for Brum so far.

There must be something going on, I can't imagine it's Basso & Puk being absent as the two guests looked good. There must be riders from either (both) teams who can't/won't travel from Poland or something. All very odd. Unless they are privy to a forecast that nobody else is but that seems highly unlikely.

There's literally no rain forecast by the Met Office tomorrow.

Lawson and MPT as a pairing is interesting

Whatever a rider's gender, surely you give them more than three competitive fixtures to get used to UK racing? Especially if the team has won them all.

Yep that's how it works AFAIK.

60+ for Poole I'd have thought.

Not all, I'm pretty sure King's Lynn were more than happy with Lewis Kerr and Lewis Rose.

But his prediction is based on 25 odd meetings between now and October.

I'd probably wait until the end of the season before calling folk out. However they both look in the right frame of mind and as a result Worky look a really good side at the moment. Reserves look a bit weak but the top five are pretty awesome. Redcar meanwhile have had a really unfortunate start to the season. Hope their luck improves.

Whatever the track is like I think this is a very tall order for Lynn, remembering Sheffield at the AFA last year makes any Stars fan shudder. If Ben is still out its a big blow. Paddy needs to show something much better this week after two poor meetings.

But are the contenders ready
