Brady out of the meeting. All over now if I am honest. Outgated and out ridden so far tonight. Well done to the Rebels. We can’t compete without Kurtz. Clipped Holder and that was that. Have to sit in front of the tv next week as a neutral.

Huge queues at Poole. Carparks full 30 mins ago.

Last season Howarth score 7 from 5 and 10 from 5 inc a heat 15.

Howarth, Covatti, Allen can take r/r rides. Howarth a good guest. Those three likely to score more than Summers. Pirates need to be on it from the start and not allow Somerset to get an early advantage.

So where did Summers pick up this sudden injury? Somerset using every single trick in the book to strengthen up tonight. Howarth in the past can be very good around Wimborne Road.

Have Kings Lynn been beaten by ten points at home this season? Are Belle Vue understrength, having lost Cook and Bewley? Kings Lynn are home and hosed.

Why would the sport increase and the crowds all come back if Matt Ford quit the sport? The sports needs many more Matt Fords to get the sport out of the sick bed. It’s like saying, “For the good of British Speedway, the sooner they go (Belle Vue), the better. It is no accident that since they have moved to Kirky Lane and then onto the NSS, the sport has been on a steady decline. That is an undeniable fact”. See what I did there? About the same amount of twaddle as one of clubs post.

None of those teams play in the southern premier league.

Proof please. His season ended when an out of control Fricke smashed into him at Leicester. I was there and saw it myself. He then posted a sickening picture of the injury. He tried to make a comeback at Pila but pulled out, and didn’t ride again that season. Poole had no choice but to find a replacement but we were never going to cover for Andersen, as it so proved.

Looks like the party is just about to begin. Been a good meeting but Leszno had too much fire power against the Gorzow reserves, Walasek.

Prefer the girls arses in tight trousers/leotards myself. These are a bit over revealling causing saggy bum cheeks.

Kurtz saving himself for the important meeting on Monday.

Completely different age demographic to the UK and Sweden. The problem for uk speedway was a lack of investment 15-20 years ago. We haven’t got a younger generation watching. All into football, where the football premier league dominates worldwide. Need major TV money to bring in the top riders, etc. Not going to happen.

This ref is an arse. Is it the same guy that excluded Tai or does Poland have two idiot refs?

Great race!

Hampel. Such a boring rider. This is going to be a stroll I am afraid. Time to start the party for Leszno fans.

Was it sold out before today or were people paying on the gate?

First leg 46-44 gorzow.

This is it. Second leg of the final. Can’t remember the first leg score but I think its all over bar the shouting already.

What a monster sized crowd. Huge.

No he didn’t. Read the article. He rode at Pila in an aborted attempt to come back and failed. Andersen told the Daily Echo: "I'm not going to ride. Apart from the meeting in Poland, it's been six or seven weeks since I rode a bike so I've decided to call it quits for the season. "There is a saying that you are only as good as your last race. Having not been on the bike for seven weeks, my performance would be different to what it would be if I were race-fit.”

What part of out for the season don’t you comprehend? I posted a link further up this page. Suggest you read it.

What on earth are you on about?

Just for those who say Andersen continued to ride abroad for the reaminder of the season. https://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/news/14796337.Speedway__Broken_leg_would_have_been_better_than_broken_finger_says_Pirates_star_Andersen/

If you repeat something enough times it doesn’t make it true.
