No I haven't either. Can you point me to it? Gavans departure was completely self inflicted and the forum is a far better place already for the major majority of posters on here sick to death of his bile. He completely lost it and was told by numerous people to calm himself down. His rants were out of control. I just ignored and blocked him. Seems now that you are trying to take over the Gavan mantle mentioning me in virtually every post you make. Are you sure you are not Gavan in dusguise? Anyway enough replying to your condescending batherings. I will walk around the first and second bend tonight and look out for you. Happy to introduce myself. As for the meeting, weathers Ok so all systems go. Let the best team win and lets hope for a racing classic.

I believe tomorrow is going to be a very exciting meeting with loads of great races. The result is completely unpredictable. Anything could happen from a Poole win, a Wolves win and anything between. Can't wait. Be there early!

Not scared stiff, but obviously wary that they are more than capable of beating us over the two legs. It's not easy to call. It will be down to who wants it most and whatever luck one side has. If we lose then we would have been beaten by the better side and well done to them.

Human nature. Do I moan if she glances at some fit bloke on the beach? Lol its life!

My wife is a modern woman and isn't bothered in the slightest. My daughter is a child. Not going to discuss my family on here!

Wrong again. Dear oh dear. My wife and daughter will be pleased to know they don't exist.

True. Wolves asked Poole to go first because of the problems with unavailability. For all the effort of finishing second, it made no difference because in the interest of the sport Poole allowed Wolves to go second.

Interesting that There was a mention of Tungate riding in this meeting but not on either team sheet.

If its only an hour on the teain the gp organisers could work with the railway to put on a speedway express to Pardibice and return to Prague. Been to Prague a couple of times and its a great weekend with usually poor racing.

I am on here when I want to be. The joys of running a very successful business mean I don't have to answer to anyone other than myself. My property is just outside Bridport, which is further than Southampton. 55 minutes to be precise.

Fair enough. Going to be easy semi. And if one of the Hammers gets injured early on the second leg might not be required.

Just checked out the gs. Got has on that one. Masters at reserve would have been game over.

I think its going to be pretty close.We need 8 point lead minimum to take to Monmore and its not going to be easy to get. Woffinden is capable of a max, Lindgren double figures, while Thorsell is in the form od his life. Add to that Masters in decent form and Howarth improving every point lead is going to be a battle. If we come up short then fair enough Wolves are capable of taking the title, and as I said earlier the winners of this semi final will likely be EL Champions. What I hope for is a brilliant semi final with some great racing. Glad its on Wednesday as the meeting would have been rained off today. Hasn't stopped raining here all day. Edit. Just read Masters is at reserve? Advantage Wolves.

So they need a guest fir the first leg only. Surely there's a rider out there who could do a job. Harris?

Absolutely. Great news he is fit to ride.

If Lakeside go with r/r they are waiving the white flag before a wheel has turned.

I walk away from speedway every week. Across the car park, into my van and then home.

Spoke to him briefly at Belle Vue.A nice guy. Told him I watched him do interviews on dodgy illegal streams. He said thousands do.

I think he should do the qualifiers next year and come back through the gp challenge. Not sure he is still as brilliant as many think. Certainly a very good rider but he didnt really challenge in the sec. I know I am in the minority here with that view.

Better to go with your own assets than guests any day but I think Guests would be more tuned in to the Poole and Monmore track than a rider who hasn't been here for nearly a decade. But if we had booked Harris at Monmore we would be accused of using a rider better than Hans around there. A no win situation. I believe whoever wins this semi will lift the title.

Why do the sgpnseries use Prague as the czech gp when they have this track to use? Far better than Prague. Adam Ellisvwhen interviewed said he loved the track and was keen to come back.

Of course it's not. But they have to slag off Poole somehow regardless of us losing our captain and second heat leader. Some on here think Lindbacks going to go through the card but he hasn't ridden here for yonks so the chances of him doing better than a guest are slim at best.

I have been told from a very reliable source his average was altered from 6.34 from 11 meetings to 7.

I though heat 14 changedvthe complexion of this ties a terrible crash and quite amazing both walked away from it though they really didn't have the time to recover, giving a 5-1 to gorzow. Think the final is still on a knife edge. Gora thought they had done enough but came up short.

The 6.34 was from his time at Belle Vue. The bspa have taken the 6.34 from 11 meetings. Some bv fan will surely have the stats from the time he was with them.
