Was also beating Doyle who had been riding well

Easy win for Eastbourne as unfortunately Coventry Storm have now lost Crang and both reserves to injury.

@gerhardengines: What a Heat! Congratulation @BomberHarris37 for that amazing performance with the GTR!

Belle Vue website now has the line ups. Kyle Howarth guests in place of Robert Lambert. Lewis Kerr is listed as riding

From watching that video, it doesn't look good for Tungate. Looks like he did it on purpose

Definitely looked like he was on a different bike for his heat win

That's what I wondered. He is near the top of the tier 2 draft in Elite league. Surely it would benefit his own personal development to ride in PL as well as EL instead as stronger & more competitive. NL is more of a development league. He's too good for it now.

Yes as I pointed out 5-10years is £4 whilst it's free at other clubs. my friend & her husband were thinking of going to play offs there but said if they have to pay £16 to take 4 kids when it's free everywhere else then might give it a miss.

Opps hadn't noticed I'd put the wrong name. Thanks will edit 👍🏻

I really hope the weather forecast is kinder to Belle Vue for this one. 🙏 It's a shame this isn't on sky esp when it's between two potential play off teams. I think a lot depends on which Zagar,Cook and Bjerre turn up as their points will all be very important. Does anybody know if Kerr & Lambert are back for this?

That's terrible esp when this was his comeback meeting from injury. Surely this should be investigated. Peter Clarke yet again could have prevented this. After the mess he made of the Coventry V Poole I'm not surprised though

I'm very surprised that Poole charge for children under 10 years old to get in. With every other club it is free. (wolves £1)

I thought the same. It's the Aussie temper striking again. Has Auty's injury been confirmed anywhere?

Will Kerr be fit for next weeks meetings? Any updates on him? I think a lot will depend on which Zagar & Bjerre turn up as both could make a big difference. Also Cook's EL form is often a lot poorer than his PL one. I think King's Lynn should be strong enough at home (but I'm hoping the rain behaves and Belle Vue can get the points on Monday)

He easily won heat 2 and would have picked up important points over Birmingham's reserves and Wilson along the way. He was the strongest of our reserves so yes, he was a loss

Interestingly those with me tonight that I took to their first NL meeting said it would be okay now and then for a change but how it misses the excitement and quality of the ELThat said they agreed that it's great to see Birmingham back racing regardless of which league they are in.

That's how it should be. No one rider should think they are bigger than the team, even more so if it's a rider who's lucky to be offered a team place after a ban

Sadly judging by the recent display I witnessed by wolves (and with Blackbird missing) Poole could go out with a 6 man team and still get 4pts. I feel for Wells & PK as they have shown how well they can ride as 2nd strings, however they are out of their depth as heat leaders esp at no 1

Crowd was quite good although seemed to be more Away fans than home. I think having Coventry in both leagues does effect attendance as people choose their meetings.Good to see a lot of Birmingham fans

Gutted for Josh Auty. Has only just returned from injury and was having a great meeting and then he is injured again. Very sad to hear another rider may have done in on purpose. If true he should face a ban, the sport doesn't need riders like that

Congratulations Birmingham on the win. Unlucky for Storm to lose Dwyer so early on but did well to still take it to a last heat decider. Even with it being close it wasn't one of the most entertaining meetings I've seen. Only really Ellis & Knuckey offering any real racing without coming off. The rest was mainly from the gate. Surprised in some ways that Ellis is still riding NL as there is a huge difference between the EL & NL and he is doing well in the EL. It's great to see Birmingham Brummies back racing. I hope one day we see them back in the EL

not elligible

How long was Rose likely to have been out for?

This will be a big away win & 4points for Poole. Wolves riders sadly look very low on confidence and the team is made up of 1 heat leader in poor form and four 2nd strings. Blackbird is signed off with back pains so major doubt for this meeting. Wolves have lost nine of their last ten meetings 34-56

This will definitely be Coventry's hardest home meeting of the season, shame it has to be their first. Birmingham have been the stand out team and the strongest team In the league. They have not lost a meeting yet which says it all. I think this will be a Birmingham win tonight. I just hope there are more Coventry fans attending than there was at the fours. Yes I know we have two leagues to support Coventry in put with bees not having a home fixture for a couple of weeks, hopefully more will come along.
