Crazily the ref said he'd have a look at the heat 12 fiasco AFTER the meeting! Don't bother mate.

We get this doom and gloom virtually every match and we come out and win. It'll be close and I think Swindon will take a point but I think we'll get a small victory. Depends on who we have to guest for us obviously. Swindon will probably be even weaker at reserve so will probably only get a few points between them. Don't get me wrong over a 2 leg play off situation I don't think we'd win. Swindon are really low on choice of guests for Friday looking at it. Looks like Clegg or either Greenwood from tier 2. Is Blackbird riding anywhere Friday otherwise Swindon can only pick from the Tier 1 guest list. Edit: Blackbird is riding Friday too.

The 2 key moments was Harris losing it when a possible 5-1 was on the cards and that heat 12. Adam Ellis was extremely lucky to only get one warning after 2 jump starts and delaying a heat along with Garrity.

He said a couple of days I think so I guess he'll ride Friday. We can get a good guest for Hans and who knows what's happening at the number 2 position. Garrity will be fine to ride, he was tonight

Kylmakorpi was unlucky, was about to get a 5-1 with Bomber until Bomber went off then Hans did him no favours. I'd say we will win Friday, our reserves are too good with what Swindon will have. Aren't Swindon missing others too?

I didn't see one that thought Sarj moved.

I agree he fenced him there, didn't look! Still 10 points from a number 4 away is what we should be looking for.

With a heat 15. It's a decent score away from someone 4th in the averages. He did get in the way in a couple of heats

Hans no good as a 2nd string? He's scored 10 so far! After that heat 12 fiasco you could tell we were going to get a stuffing. A change at number 2 please! A truly shocking decision from the ref in heat 12, get me an application form lol!

Kings Lynn 48-42 Coventry.

You need to give a few weeks to get the play offs completed because of the weather. If you start the playoffs in October you really do run the risk of it not being completed. Starting the playoffs in the middle of September is sensible.

Why? If you have 2 or 3 guests signed in a squad clubs can pick riders which averages are suitable to riders they know are likely to miss a few meetings. If for example you have a d/u rider who you know will miss meeting you sign a guest rider to a similar average. Or course injuries will happen but it wouldn't stop clubs signing riders to replace if the 3 guest riders are not suitable.

Yeah agree with that, he has been slow at the bigger tracks. Hans can make the gate and now facing so called lesser riders should help him stay out in front.

We will see, King and Kylmakorpi have managed it so Hans will have too aswell.

Hans just HAS to produce in a 2nd string role scoring 8+ regularly. Easier heats so he shouldn't get passed as often as he has in a heat leader role and should be dominating at his new role.

At Brandon I'd prefer Thorsell anywhere else it'll be Lindgren. Lindgren would still be a good option though.

Agree Thorssell usually goes well around Brandon. I'd say there must be plenty of options available to guest for Hans. I'd agree with SCB go r/r for Robbo.

Garrity rides tonight.

My view is that clubs are spending extra money on guests anyway so why not nominate 2 or 3 guest riders for the season as part of a squad. For instance Bees often use Summers as a guest so sign him as a guest for the season.

Let's be honest I very much doubt Lambert is the one asking for an increase, he's only young remember. I'd guess the people looking after him are running his finances and making the demands.

If I had to guess I'd say Garrity will ride, we all know what he's like! Kus for Robson is fair enough but I do have to agree a change will need to be made if we are to win the play offs.

I think Darcy will win a world title at some point but I would bet on Tai and Holder winning more than the one they have.

The amount of points he is getting at reserve I'm sure he's earning plenty. Its just a natural progression for him to be in the top 5 next year.

A bit of a bonus for us Bees fans that can't make the trip.

Are they sure because they gave a Belle Vue v Swindon result out when they were on heat 14!
