Rule No1. All Rules must remain as ambiguous as is possible, so as we can all get them interpreted in our favour as and when required, to suit our own specific agendas throughout the season... Rule No2 Rule No1 must be followed at all times..

The Month of March for Testimonials, Challenges, and Individual Meetings like the PCMM.. - Gives riders a chance to prepare for the club racing ahead... 01 April to 31 August - The Leagues September - The League Cups October - The British Championships, League Riders Championships. Pairs events... Cannot be good to expect fans or riders financially to cram in so many meetings at the end of a season... Fans, particularly of successful teams, as they fork out for several meetings home and away for their team in one months salary, (this must hit the potential away followings especially), and surely better to have Leagues and Cups decided in better weather to attract more people? And riders, as currently one injury that means just a week out, can take out a lot of rides and earning potential after several weeks of inactivity. And also the stress on man and machinery of racing so much so frequently. Forking out money in the last weeks of the season for instant repairs won't be too popular I would suggest... Still. As it ain't broken, it doesnt need fixing does it....

Same plan as Thursday. .. Let Doyle win his five races, no risks taken racing him if he is in front, and win the majority of the other 10 races... Good audition for Klindt for the final too...

When you put it like that it shows how great this season has been for Bewley and Lambert.. Two Russian superstars or two truly world class riders have places "up in the air", whilst both these lads are already nailed on...

Maybe Sam Ermolenko could do the working out of the permutations for them.. ...?

And their respective average speeds per GP...

So Fricke qualifies?

You would think the commentary would have mentioned third place permutations wouldn't you?

Doyle wiped him out... But apart from that... Unlucky Doylie...

No idea why Dan keeps picking Yellow for his first ride... I realise later on he gets the inside twice but by then it can be too late... Especially as the dirt moves out later and the outside gates improve... Take a 'safe second' or at least a thitd in your first heat if you cannot win..

Both Belle Vue lads...

Might get a decent crowd if THJ entered...

Never work... The BSP would not be able to source enough extention leads long enough... And even if they did, they would inevitably all get tangled up by the end of lap four.... No doubt it is the future, so no doubt the BSP won't do anything with it... The real opportunity is to source 8 per team and just run then with box standard kit... Move the sport back to ground zero and start again afresh.... Would give a whole new meaning to "Ohm" advantage. ... I'll get me coat....

Of course it makes more sense to potentially have four different riders riding in the play offs for the Aces, all from other teams in the same league, rather than making a signing to ride for them in all the matches... More sense to those who run the sport (appallingly), obviously.... They spend all season borrowing each others riders so I suppose four more times wont make much difference to how the sport is seen and judged... And whoever wins the league will get hardly a ripple of publicity anyway.. Just a shame an opportunity to being in another 'World Star' wasnt taken..

Fait point.... As he hasn't rode over here for 3 years he really ought to be downgraded to a 4 point assessed man... Only if he signs for the Aces obviously.....

My lad said "he looks like you"... Japanese top knot excluded obviously... I told him... "Valuvicivic went past Vaclac Milochictic like he was standing still, down the straightaway.. "

Because that is all they can afford to run at...... When success costs too much in the top tier and they drop to mid table and lower, their fans foxtrot oscar leaving them with no profit... Hence better to run in the lower tier and make some cash with the usual glory hunting success...

The one that offers the easiest rides? Human nature...

A different level... No Zagar, No Kurtz, No Doyle when he rides in the lower tier to take points off him.. A good, honest 100% GB rider... But he has a level...

Great from the Aces engine room.. So often the weak link... Tom B also showing that he is "quite good" at the top level.... Well done Cookie too, won and got second in important races... The young German lad looks a talent too... Let Doylie win and pick up the pieces... Could be a team manager me...

"Hello Mr Left Side"... "Good evening Mr Right Side".. "What are your doing?".. "Absolutely no f'king idea"... NB: Given it involves UK Speedway there is a perverse synergy about this isnt there? Fred Karno will be turning in his grave...

Ouch!!!

Danny King for me is always a catalyst for his teams come play off time... He always seems to end seasons well as the tracks get a bit more gripper and damper... Wouldn't surprise me to see him get a good double figure score tonight....

I remember once against Cov when they let Crump score a full house but sat in behind and collected 3-3's... When is say 'let' they probably didn't but he was too good, so the game plan was just not concede heat advantages in his races... Same tonight for the Aces would work...

So the dogs are not closing...? Meaning the track will be viable...? So the Speedway can run....? As Jim from Friday Night Dinner may have said. .. "Confuuuuuused"!!!!.... The other question of course is that even if the dogs were closing, (which they now 100%, no chance, err err, no sureee, never on my watch, are now doing)... How do the many non dog track stadiums that run Speedway keep it viable and Swindon (with a bigger than most fanbase) couldn't? Must have been some serious crossed wires when they launched this new company mustn't there?
