Deadlock broken at last.

Standard fodder from Ipswich. Swindon riders proving too strong.

Another Swindon race win. Getting predictable now.

He might have but he was never in front of Harris. It was the right call. I am completely neutral and don’t favour either team. Call it as I see it.

All three back.

Ellis was never in front. Tried to go around but Harris had it covered. Good effort from Ellis though.

Ellis has to go there.

This is looking ominous for Ipswich already. They have no one to beat Swindon’s top riders.

Track will slicken off to suit Swindon.

Typical rerun never the same result.

Thought Doyle was cheating but replay shows different. ‘His steel shoe might have saved him there.

Hoping for any kind of lead for Ipswich to make a final of it. Let’s hope for some decent racing tonight.

No a jab.

I had the flu in 2003. A cold it is not. Man flu it is not. I was laid out for over two weeks in bed and affected for well over a month Totally exhausted before slowly recovering. It is true to say that line that if a 50 pound note had Wafted past my bedroom window I would not have got up to pick it up. It really can be a life threatening illness for the weak and elderly. If a jabs available for free from the doctor don’t hesitate IMO.

Track covers could at least kept the track in a dry condition even if not rescuing the meeting for tonight. Two sets of track covers, owned by the BSPA could have been laid in advance to help keep the tracks from turning into slush.

I don’t believe the change of race night has made the 20% drop. I believe there are several other factors.

I don’t believe moving back to a Wednesday from a Thursday would make any difference to crowd levels.

Yes you are right. I was a bit quick off the mark and very disappointed to read and hear there was a risk of us dropping down. Hasty is the right word. I have always much preferred the highest quality racing, as I prefer top league football. I went to Swindon Town v Newport recently and what a load of crap that was. I did enjoy Poole when they were in the NL as I didn’t have anything to compare it with. But the sport has changed completely from the 1990’s. And when we moved up the racing was just so much better. I might not feel like it now but if Poole do drop down, by March I will probably trundle down the road to the stadium. It’s in the blood.

Just had the flu jab last week. Grotty for a couple of days but ok now. Worth having.

Good luck with leaving on the 31st.

Thought at the time, there’s a brexiteer.

Men against boys.

Neither stream seems to be working. edit. Maniac now working.

You wouldn’t want Klindt?

I wasn’t sure though had an inkling. In which case they are stuck with him.
