So I reckon its Somerset to win by a couple of points. Garry May will have them well and truly psyched up for the 'bragging rights'!! Poole will be fortunate to get a draw and then hope that the Robins don't roll over at RH now they are confirmed as finishing top. If Poole do manage to hold on to 4th place, then with Starke dropping back to reserve and Timo up into the 1-5, I can't see us progressing past the semis. ;-)

It won't be Wednesdays as the BSPA have a good relationship with the Danes and more Wednesday fixtures would undoubtedly see fewer Danish riders over here!! It has to be Thursdays for the Premiership and with talk of 10-12 clubs then one must assume that the likes of Ipswich and Sheffield will step up - as they have both previously stated that they are keen to do.

????

I would agree with that. Well done to the RH promotion (even though I want Poole to retain 4th spot). I would expect the BSPA chairman to get the cut-off date extended to allow for the rearrangement of KL v RH. He'll do almost anything to scupper any hopes Poole may have!! ;-) ;-)

Good luck Swindon for the continuation of the winning run - Don't slacken off just because you're guaranteed top spot!! :-)

I agree with most of what Doyley is saying - except the point about 'more accidents' in UK, as referred to above by Perton Wolf. There have been far more serious accidents in Poland (and Sweden for that matter) despite the so-called better riders and better tracks!!

...because Doyley won't let him!!!

He's not suffering with dizzy spells, as I corrected earlier on the other thread. He's had a flu-type virus for the past week. He just felt a bit 'dizzy' ( or wobbly as he later described it) as he approached the 3rd bend in heat 1 last night. He was fine after that - if a little tired!!

If it upsets you so much Steve0 then stay off the thread - Simples. Although I suggest you keep an eye on this one. Lol

It almost sounds as though Swindon are getting a bit jittery despite their terrific winning run and topping the league??!! lol Me? I'll just be very pleased if Poole hang on to 4th even if Lahti does revert to the 1-5 from Monday!

Poole without Holder and Shanes too!!

Strangely and very unusually at any track, there was a 2nd 5-0 at Rye House on Tuesday after the one v Poole the night before!! No Aussie riders involved this time!! Incidentally Jack Holder's been struggling with a flu-type virus!!

I have to admit this has been quite enjoyable so far!!! lol Should keep a few occupied over the Autumn.

Its well known that Lambert is carrying a knee injury which makes the knee swell up after too much pressure on it - thats why he didn't ride in the 2nd meeting last week and why his races tend to tail off towards the end of a meeting. Buster has stated he has riders in place!!! Barker is missing for Rye House due to a fixture for Redcar.

I have to say I felt a bit sorry for the KL riders and fans last night. They did try hard - that was obvious especially in the first half of the meeting - but the Poole team continued with their Jekyll and Hyde season by really turning it on when they needed to. Just to clarify my earlier comment about Jack Holder's 'dizzy spells', I have now listened to the post-meeting interviews again and what he actually said was 'he was feeling a bit sick and just felt a bit dizzy going into bend 3 in heat 1'. He did ok for the rest of the meeting.

Yes! ps. So good to catch up with THJ again last night.

Its being reported that Lambert is only riding in the first meeting v Poole and will not ride v Rye House. I hope Buster has got a decent guest or I'm sure Poole will protest!! Rye House missing Barker.

Not in as big a mess as Sweden!!!!!!

Holder was ill tonight!! In the post-meeting interviews he said he was sick and felt a bit dizzy, which is what caused him to nearly take out Brady in heat 1

Where have I said NO to all the 5 pointers?? Where have I said that the rider isn't riding in this country? All I said to you was to re-think (maybe reconsider was a better word) your earlier options. Of course when I also said the answer was YES to 2 of your questions - that didn't rule out the same answer also applying to more of those same questions?!

Bewley is a big loss for the Aces and Lasse Bjerre is no substitute for Worrall!! Whilst watching the anticipated demolition at Wimborne Road (although a wet and claggy track may favour the Stars), I'll be keeping an eye on Updates!!

There are apparently 2 big articles in the Speedy Star this coming week - by Chapman and Van Stratten. Should make for interesting reading!!

Very true. Not Klindt though, even though he wants to be back.

All those named above are currently employed this season and still riding for their respective clubs so it would be both unfair and somewhat disrespectful to name any names - even assuming the rider is one of those above??!!

Still says Wright on their website meeting preview?!
