Niklas H is back for the Comets on Saturday, so I guess that guest booking has been cancelled

JD said he's having a scan on his interview (tomorrow I think) can't see him riding the weekend especially at Armadale unfortunately. Klindt would be a mighty fine guest though 😆

Funnily enough, Kyle Howarth probably cost Workington a place in the BSN semis by taking the booking here instead of at Berwick. He would of scored way more than the 3 R/R got for Edinburgh, the Comets would have got beat at home anyways whoever guested. Plus he also didn't match what Cookie would of scored 😆 Simon Lambert was on standby to ride at No.2 but then couldn't make it, would have ran R/R for Cook instead

Would imagine it'll be Dayle Wood and Simon Lambert on Friday at Armadale, pretty limited choice with only 3 teams not riding. But think those 2 make the team strong, can't be going R/R at number 2 again.

Berwick scored 57, so on to the league season it is. Hopefully with better guests or riders returning

It was a pretty decent meeting and crowd again today, track looks totally different without the sun on it. Bears did their job congrats! Comets team was lacking today and just wasn’t set up for heat advantages. It was always going to be a struggle, need our injured riders back soon. Looks like Comets need Berwick to score 55 or less to finish ahead of them and still qualify for the semi finals. 56 would mean points and points difference will be level. Assuming Edinburgh don’t go and win away at Glasgow that is 😆

Not sure what the rumours could be (that someone has probably made up) But he's been having oxygen chamber therapy today to assist and speed up the healing. I've had it myself and it actually works.

Jake Mulford (2) and Sam Hagon (7) are guesting for the Comets tomorrow at Scunthorpe.

Rushen should come in to replace him in Heat 14 😉

Tbf 300 is the perfect game in ten pin bowling

I’m pleased Max Perry has signed, he will be at least on the pace. We made the play offs in 2024 with Sam McGurk averaging 1.64 Not expecting anything spectacular from Max, if he averages 2.5+, job done from him. Just looked and he averaged 2.79 (3.15 with bonus) away from home last year. Home average was worse than away

Ha fair play, it’s all a bit of fun. I’ll take you up on that offer. Good luck to Berwick in the semi finals, it’s about time Berwick won something again 😝 Captain Jye is all refreshed after a season away and could be the one to lift it.

Eh, what the hell are you on about how is that blaming the trees 😂 A meeting that has about 25 passes isn’t ran on a crap prepared track. Well done, argument lost 👏

Saying they were poor is being kind tbh. They would have been in with a chance of more like a 10-12 point loss if they could gate. Shielfeld is like Derwent Park was, has its limitations because of its dual purpose but is exciting to watch riders fly into the 3rd/4th bends at speed. Third bend is the best place to stand imo.

Makes a massive difference because in the afternoon the track has zero shade, after 6pm it’s behind the backstraight and all the trees. The sun just dries the track out in no time.
