Poole return to Leicester on Saturday for the B fixture. It was a stroll in the park in the A with a 34 56 win. It certainly won't be anything like that this time around. It looks like a decimated Pirates lineup with the U21 team event taking place. No official word as of yet but no Kurtz and Holder is likely. A big loss for Poole. Brady was untouchable in the A with a max and no KK who only dropped one point in five rides. Zengota has never seen the place. Be interesting to see who we will have to come in for our missing riders. Not sure if Leicester will be affected. Thoughts?

The Poole juggernaut comment was slightly tongue in cheek for those that take everything so seriously.

Yes got to m42. On oud way back. Cant help think Nicholls absence has helped make their minds up for them. Rain is set to clear.

Totally agree we turned around then turned back again. Angry people in the car. Never annouce off unless official. Early calloff imo. Rain due to clear shortly. A calloff at this time helps no one. Peed off waste of a day.

Because Nicholls is not going to make it. Wolves runnng scared of thd Poole Juggernaut. Seriously the rain should be clear by4.30 to 5 at the latest. 4 pm very handy. Doesnt savd anybody anything.

Dont f us about we have turned around

Rain in Wolverhampton?

Its Gavan logic. To the rest of us its clear Wolves are stronger tonight than the A fixture, and that's without Lindgren. Anyone with an ounce of speedway knowledge would know that.

If it is wet surely the Wolves meeting takes precedence?

Don't Wolves ride Mondays and the lodgers ride at other times?

Modern technology means we can see what the weather is doing anywhere in the world in the matter of a couple of seconds. See you later Baz.

I can't recall him being better than he is currently riding. Remember him being a lot worse though.

Looks ok at the moment but showers could develope and cause issues. I suppose the meeting could be put back a couple of hours if that's the case and cancel the second half. Leaving at 2pm. Hope the traffic isn't too bad.

Ref decided the tapes didnt come up straight. Looked ok but of course in a rerun the result always changes.

Refs a homer in this evenings meeting.

Nicholls a very good guest for Lindgren. A track specialist so Wolves wont miss Lindgren very much on this occassion. Possibly score a couple of points less but in the scheme of things not enough of a difference for Wolves fans to get worried. As I said in an earlier post, if we can get a point tomorrow it will be a great acheivement. More of a worry is the team we are going to put out on Saturday.

Artur Mroczka again sublime today for Tarnow.

Brady was unbeatable there last time. Riders missing ike this can be a real pain in the butt.

Think Robins should win this by 8-10.

Thats disappointing news. Holder has been very good recently and losing him is a blow. Means we will have to use Klindt to cover his rides meaning Klindt won't be available if another ride is having an off night. Puts a lot on pressure on Klindt and if he has a bad night we will be sunk. If Lindgren is out he can easily be covered by the Wolves riders. Sure it will weaken them in the scheme of things but Wolves riders are so dialled in and with Thorsell, Masters Schlein and one of the others able to take a ride he will hardly be missed very much in a one off occasion. Think Poole will miss Holder more than Wolves will miss Freddie, though I reckon he will ride. As of yet he hasn't pulled out of his Polish commitment tomorrow. Lets hope the rain holds off and we get the meeting on.

Rubbish final. Well a Polish 123. Looking ominous for the swc. Well done to Piotr who has had a poor season before this evening!

Doesn't have the speed or the intensity to challenge the top few. Looks like an also ran at the moment.

Great second semi.

Well Tai, you are clearly not making it work riding Poland and Sweden only. No way will you be challenging for the WC this year on your current form. Perhaps you should consider asking if there is any room at the inn back in the UK to get some more racing in?

Looks like Zmazliks night is over.
