Whoever wins this year will be a paper champion. Everybody will know Emil and Artem are the real champions.

Based on current averages, it would be Bjarne for October.

Wolves won't finish top. Mark my words. This Panthers team are on a mission. They're like a dog without a bone.

Bookies not giving Ipswich a chance. Panthers are 1/5 on to win tonight. I'd personally have the Panthers 1/10 on, Ipswich won't know how to deal with this Panthers side.

If Eurosport wasn't part of my Sky package, I would have binned it.

Deadline has been extended is my understanding. Covid has caused a lot of disruption in the speedway world.

Not good enough IMO.

If Russia has the same number of rounds as Poland, I think Artem would be right in the race.

That's a very good shout, he's top of the 2nd division averages in Poland. He's ahead of some very good riders.

Anders is a good shout. What does a 8.29 championship average from 2016 convert to? Gorzow are in the play-offs though, not sure they will let him ride. Anders has a habit of getting injured.

Pawel Przedeplski is the best rider available, only riding in Sweden now. I think he would come in on a 7 point average. Would be expensive, but would be a real statement. He also has British league experience from his time at Leicester. We have had good crowds all season, Buster should use some of that money to try and win us our first league title since 2006.

Wolves are running out of steam. Can't see them challenging for the league.

No thanks. Woffinden on 7.03 is who we want.

Buczkowski would be my pick.

Why do people compare us to Poland? Speedway is a much bigger sport there. Do Polish people compare their football team, cricket 11 rugby squads and boxers to GB?

Rob Lyon is a very good manager. If he wins the league this year, he will join Trevor Swales in all time great Panthers' managers. Trevor has the edge though in my opinion, purely down to the way he used his double point tactical rides in 2006 vs Reading. He executed them perfectly.

Not everyone is retired. A lot of people have to finish work. I'm tied up in Canary Wharf until 6, meaning the earliest I can get to the Showground is 7.30.

One idea to make up for the lack of summer nights is running double-headers? Make it an entire day's worth of activity for the family. You could hire a clown and bouncy castle for the kids.

One thing is for certain, if Wolves finish top, they will have done it through luck. They are not the best team in the league.

Huge queues here. I'd be very surprised if the Panthers aren't making a profit this year.

Winning tonight would lead to a Wolves capitulation. That would lead to us finishing top.

Finding it very hard to concentrate at work. Worried I might get some digits the wrong way round in Excel. Tonight is a huge meeting, winning would get us top spot IMO, Wolves would capitulate under the pressure. We need to treat every heat like it is heat 15.

Douglas at reserve shouldn't be allowed. The reserve spots are designed to help young riders develop. Teams are abusing the reserve position.

Speedway is trying to position it as a family sport, but that market is so competitive. One thing that speedway is really enjoyable at is betting. It's a sport made for gambling. Short 60 second races with lots of excitement. Greyhounds and horses have cornered the market, but speedway could come in as an outsider.

We are going to wait for Crump to get his new average, he will then guest in the play-offs.
