Wykyk!

I guess you won't want any more Pirates to guest for you then? Although I note Garry M was in deep convo with a couple of them on Weds.😇 or maybe that was for next season......!😉

Just to add something to the 'debate', a start marshall remains on the track when the ref starts each race as he walks away from the start line but still on the track. In fact when the start marshall has to use a pole/bollard on the line to stop the tapes from billowing, he has to return to the startline to remove the pole while the first lap of the race is in progress. Also aren't start marshalls, like refs, SCB accredited?

...and none are moaning about Thomsen either.

Matt's the owner so after his 'motivational' team talk in the pits he's entitled to keep a 'watchful eye' on his riders' gating.

Out of interest why were Oxford weakened when their reserves scored paid 19?

Correct! After the meeting Starke and Cairns were trying out different set-ups under the watchful eyes of Matt Ford and Richard Lawson until the ref got impatient for the second half of upright races.

He is a heat leader. Just choosing to ride at 4.

Except for their guest Zaine K!!

Speculating about riders for next year is a bit crazy when we are not sure of the league(s) structure or points limits, despite what was 'agreed' at the AGM! Rumours of discontent in a few of the Premiership clubs whilst definitely losing Birmingham will mean changes in 2026 imo.

Cairns is already 4.15 as at Friday 1st August. Still at reserve though.😜

No.

Three, with Cooper Rushen who turns 16 in March 2026 I believe.

Watched the BSN stream mainly to see how the 2 Pirate guests did! Shame the meeting was so drawn out as I switched over at 9pm for the AFCB match on Sky. Well done to Tobias and the Glads. Unlucky Starkey! Let's see what Oxford bring to Wimborne Road on Wednesday!!

His mum was likely very unhappy.

A senior Dane to a Wednesday track? Not sure that would work aside from any lack of weekend availability?! Also despite what was agreed at the 2024 AGM re. points limits etc., nobody is certain what the league format or number of clubs will be for 2026!

Ah yes, The News of the World? Where are they now......!?

As Havvy explained it was a 50p jubilee clip on the carb that broke off.

Great start for Kerr! Less so for Rocketman

Isn't there a rule that says you can't sign any replacements if you've completed 75% of fixtures?

Similarly if the opportunity arises to revisit Northside this season there is no way Poole will perform as badly as 2 weeks ago!!

Tate was there as much to be with Darcy Ward's family as supporting his team mates.

Yes, Thomsen

Does he ride in Danish or Polish Leagues?

Jeppesen.
