He comes up and chats every week. Friendly guy. Spoke to Kelvin. He said track is hard. Harris is one to watch. Crowd isn’t great.

Just spoken to bomber and said Someone had posted on twitter he wasnt riding and it was r/r. He said whoever said that was a w@nker.

Lovely sunshine, dry and no chance of this being off.

If this is not true the mods should ban you off here for life.

Ok thanks don’t use social media.

Whats speedway banter?

Why would a Poole victory be against the odds? We are favourites to win tonight and it would be disappointing to lose against Somerset, though not the end of the world.

Stopped now. Just a shower. Lets hope they don’t spring up this afternoon.

Raining here in Parkstone.

Somerset won here convincingly earlier this season. Just saying.....

Let’s hope it doesn’t affect his riding because we will need all 7 to be on form tonight. As Poole is such a fair track with little in the way of home advantage, Somerset as a team all ride the track well. Our worry is if comes down to heats 13 and 15, with Holder and Doyle both capable of blasting away from the tapes for max points. We need to make sure BWD, Allen, Greebo and Summers have quiet nights. Covatti I expect to do well.

I would put Milik, Jack Holder and Lambert before Fricke. I could well be wrong but don’t think Fricke is going to make the big step up. Guess we will know in the next few years.

No. I don’t believe Fricke is anywhere near GP quality. Much better options out there.

You predicted Poole 43 47 Somerset just two days ago.

I will add that after both were read the riot act they have made up and get along ok. Something to do when they were at Peterborough.

Now that was balls to the walls team riding from Magic and Milik over Helium.

Not that it matters but Lambert was in dreadful form this afternoon in Poland, costing his team a shock home defeat. However, tomorrow he may have completely different bikes so probably not much to read into it. Expecting 52-38ish.

Bwd at Somerset.

Both Doyle and Jack Holder in very fine form for Torun this afternoon. Hilders gating was very impressive. If they ride like that tomorrow it’s going to be very tough. We can’t afford silly points dropped by tapes/ef’s and falls. We are more than capable of winning this, so Middlo needs to drill into them no complacency. The tracks had a good soaking today. Hopefully will give us some great racing tomorrow night.

Don’t ever remember Darcy telling Matt Ford to f off and starting fights with his team mates. Gary May has already had to seperate a fight between Jack and one of his teammates this year and said anymore trouble and he is a goner.

Another great race. Gdansk suprising Lublin.

Funnily enough, I am not ginger.

Rubbish. Just A few Kings Lynn fans still not over getting their arses kicked over a week ago. Get over yourselves your team was crap!

Jack Holder absolutely wanted to be at Poole this season and when Matt Ford told him he wasn’t being considered he couldn’t believe it. You don’t act like he did, turn up drunk as a skunk at a sponsors evening, tell your boss to F off, as well as other incidents, and expect there to be no repurcusions. He is talent on a bike, no doubt about it. He will probably go all out tomorrow night to prove a point, but the damage was done with the way he acted last season.

Well it’s hosing down here this morning and if this rain had come a day later there would be no chance of the meeting going ahead. Luckily tomorrow is forecast to be a dry day with sunny periods. Somerset dished out a drubbing earlier this season so we need the team to click as one to gain revenge. Should be a thriller.
