I didnt want hans back. Too much a journeyman Nowadays. Will have good and the bad.

Dc2 is very wrong. Chuffed I is. Salvaging a point at the death was great. Take that no probs. Most of us predicted a 4-6 point home win and so it turned out.

Chuffed. Had given up on anything. Long trip but happy. Poor meeting though racing wise. Worst meeting I have been to at nss.

Got out of jail there. Fricke and Bewley excellent until it slicked. Josh very hard of Max when he tried to come around him on start of second lap and hung him to dry. Suprise point. Dreadful error by bv not using Bewley in heat ten.

Result! One point for Pirates.

Brady is 100% trying. But missing the starts. Got level with Fricke but Max had him up theinside and gone.

Brady riding in Poland is no excuse. So did Fricke, PK, Bjerre, spanner, Linus, Woryna.

Shocking error to be honest.

Interval. Four in it but likely only one winner tonight. Passing at a premium though plenty of close races. Poole boys have struggled out of the gate and can’t get back the lead BV picked up at the start when they left us for dead. Fricke and Bewley simply untouchable tonight. Brady has missed the gate badly twice tonight and chased shadows.

We are being mullered out the starts. Chasing shadows. Woryna made a pass as did Sundstrum but not good racing as the bv boys have gated and gone!

Can you give me the time of heat 6 please. I missed it.

Went to Old Trafford and the city ground last year. Not very impressive. The Emirates is far superior in every aspect. A shame we won’t meet. Was going to ask Phil or Rob Beckingham to point you out.

Had to drive past two proper football clubs. Got the tissues. Will give them to you later.

Up in Liverpool at the mo. Weather good. Heading over to BV after driving by Anfield and Goodison.

I agree it’s likely to be a home win but what inconsistency?

You didn’t read my post correctly. I said I don’t think he will get to the same standard of those riders, as well as Harris and Nicholls.

One of the true greats. RIP.

We are far stronger this year. If other teams don’t strengthen up we should win it. And who is to say we won’t strengthen?

I am pretty much in agreement with that score. Early season, riders that haven’t seen the track. Close but a home win.

KK is starting well this season. Messed up heat 14 but is determined and fast. Seems to have one good year followed by a stinker. This year he looks good.

Sour and bitter when we lose? I don’t think so. I am quite gracious in defeat. Not that it happens very often over the last 15 years.

Well Lidsey taken out of his first ride. Will he get a spin?

What over Kildemand? Never!

It would cut out the start marshall having to order the riders to tapes. If the rider isn’t there, they are out. The riders attitude at tapes would be sorted in an instant.

Wish he was. Visa not finalised?
