Thanks everyone. I don't have Sky but will try to catch up on IPlayer, when I will then probably realise I have already seen it. Afraid I tend to record Eggheads then wizz through to the first round so probably missed the bit about the team being Speedway fans.

Better still clean the 'flying finally sorted out' bikes at the end of the season and put them safely away in October ready to for once hit the ground running in March? Doubt it will ever happen though because some riders, although saying they can't manage and might have to retire if they can't double up, always seem compelled to get new stuff.

Nothing to do with the club he's riding for. He always wakes up about July time after struggling with bike set-ups for months. Nothing new ~ happened for years when he was with Coventry. Lucky for Poole they've signed him at the right time.

Happy Memories of playing this for many years with Kath, Graham, you and the rest of the gang on the 4th bend, even though my predictions were usually rubbish.

When was that on then? I always watch Eggheads on BBC 2 but all there is at the moment is almost 3 hours of European Championships....... whatever that is.

I don't think they know, hence all the changes that unfortunately haven't worked so far.

One down ~ two to go.

Pretty good prediction, but then it's easy to predict Leicester's expected results.

For various reasons ~ one of which is Coventry usually riding on Sunday's ~ this was our first visit this season and I thought the racing was a lot poorer than it has normally been. It livened up towards the end and heat 12 was brilliant but otherwise mostly gate and go, although the scoreline kept it interesting.

1] Yes easily. 2] 50 something 30 something.

Nowhere? I wouldn't be too sure about Andersen riding the track well either being as he won't be riding for Poole. Fully expecting another trouncing in the region of 16/20 points.

I think it will be similar final scores to this at all the Lions away matches next week.....unfortunately.

Yes I really enjoyed the racing which I thought was the best this season, but unfortunately a lot of fans just want to see their team win and don't particularly care what they are watching as long as they do.

I don't think it was ever Coventry's intention to run matches at Leicester after this season so the answer is probably nothing is going to happen, apart from the fact Leicester may use some of the current 'Bees' NL riders who will be familiar with the track.

Not 3 more changes.

As Danny won't be riding again this season we can keep Charles can't we? Don't fancy any more changes with only 3 home matches left and as we'll perhaps be bottom of the league by the end of next week it's not really worth it now. Just hope the remaining matches don't completely destroy the confidence of Connor Mountain as I think it's a season or two too early for him to be riding in the Premier League.

I beg to differ. I would say Leicester. 8 rides between them on Monday and just three points scored.

Yes so do I but unfortunately he blinking well beat him 3 times on Monday.

Yes July again. That's the month when he has usually sorted out the bike set-ups and starts flying. Now wouldn't it be sensible if just for once at the end of the season he cleaned the bikes and put them away as they are so he can hit the ground running next March instead of investing in new stuff then struggling for months to get the right set-ups?

I knew he would do well in this match. Stick him against Scott Nicholls in any race and he goes mad. Good match report from Steve Shovlar. We spoke before the meeting started and he seemed to think it would be a last heat decider whereas I said Poole would win easily and Bomber get 11 or 12 points. Can't say I'm happy to be right but to me the racing is more important than the final score and I enjoyed it after watching some diabolical stuff this season. The track seems to be improving now thank goodness so well done to the curator and all the others who work on it. Well done to Poole too. Can't see any team stopping them being champions now.

Very sensibly called off due to heavy rain overnight on Saturday and a bad weather forecast for Sunday. Incidentally this proved to be very accurate as it chucked it down from about 4pm onwards.

Surely if that is a fake account from years ago and someone was using your name and identity you could get it removed as soon as it was set up, yet it was still active in December last year?

Now you do.

Was just going to say that. Bit rich from someone described as a Porn Baron when 'googled'. Probably another Steve Shovlar who supports Poole Pirates. https://twitter.com/steve_shovlar?lang=en

Unfortunately I think that 'If' can be replaced by 'When' and the 'may' replaced by 'will'. Fully expect the Pirates to win tomorrow by at least 6 points.
