Interesting that Matt did mention the likes of NKI and AJ not being able to ride Premiership but did not specifically mention Chris Holder.!!

Well if the capacity+ crowd at last night's quiz night is anything to go by I can't see much of a drop in meeting attendances - despite as Matt said the amount of negativity whenever there is a change. Great quiz too - with worthy winners who led the 19 teams and won the play-offs too!!! :-) :-) ps. Final rider will be confirmed and announced next week - according to MF on BBC Radio this morning.

Brief positive(ish) statement on SpeedwayGB twitter today

There are brief updates from Buster Chapman - both Leicester and Belle Vue - on the SpeedwayGB twitter this morning

3 wise monkeys and their Ipswich stalker!!! Apologies Robins fans.

Hasn't Buster been away on hols?! Should think he deserves at least a short break after all the sorting out he's involved in!!

Drawing the raffle as usual!!!! :-)

Just sharing what it says in the paper!!

Welcome to the Poole asset base - Charles Wright!! and before anyone jumps in and tells me I'm wrong - its in today's Echo (alongside the Darcy article)!!

Good to hear that Charles Wright has recently become a Poole Asset!! :-)

Thought Klindt made it clear that he'd prefer not to race at Wolves - which is why CVS didn't try to persuade him.

No body knows officially!! Just surmising from many.....

So the sixth rider announced tomorrow as expected - With James Shanes and Nicolai Klindt also in attendance. Should be another good evening.

Not far out was I?? But a good team assembled within their budget so good news for sustainable Speedway in Somerset.

Truly amazed at all the positivity on this thread!!!!??

If Somerset couldn't agree afford terms with KK or PK what makes people think they can get Chris Holder?! ;-)

Are you a referee or something??

It'll be good to both start and end the season with Wolves v Poole!! :-)

Speedway will always continue in one form or another - even if it becomes more of a semi-professional sport again! Anyone who still truly believes that it is a 'family sport' and should continue to be promoted as such needs their head examined in my opinion!! Comments as above like 'it'd be worth going just to watch Garrity and Barker' are hardly 'family-friendly' and rightly so. Much more should and could be made of the thrills and spills, grudges between teams and riders etc etc.

How and why is Lasse Bjerre a Poole asset?? Was it some sort of under the table swap deal? If so with whom?

Same for Josh G!!

What's that old saying? 'Too many Cooks................!!' maybe. Still 'all's well that ends well'!!

I'm pretty sure Kyle (Newman not Howarth!) will be announced early this week as Kyle usually attends Poole's REF quiz nights - the first of which is on Wednesday 7th!! Lol. Someone clearly stayed up way past their bedtime!!

Nice win for Batch in Victoria. Helps to get his 'mojo' back!! NB. not sure why people keep suggesting NKI as he made it quite clear in the SS that the new Polish rules had 'screwed' his plans to race in the UK - unless he takes 'em on??!!

It wasn't anything to do with what I deleted!!!
