According to Sky Charlie via Twitter, Hans is testing the injury today. Who would the Danes go with if both Hans and Nicki are out? Klindt and Mads? Paddy? Will they stick with Bjarne who was shocking on Saturday?

Firstly I want to stand up and apologise to Danny King. I thought he would be a let down but he was awesome and he has a new fan this morning after the determination shown last night. Heat 20 was easily the best race I have ever seen and I've watched speedway all my life. Crumpy is a total legend and I would give my right arm (and my leg too) to have him back at Belle Vue!!! I really enjoyed the whole meeting and am back in love with speedway again. Bring on Thursday!!!

Give the poor girl a break!! She's only mentioned it in passing as she does most stuff about Speedway!! Plus she's a pretty reliable source..... Is it her fault that no-one has thought to make an official announcement!!

I presume you mean Slovenians? I think that with Rico in this side we could have challenged for the win with the Aussie injury worries and the Polska's having some temperamental riders in their midst. As it stands we will be fighting for 3rd....

Will be interesting to see what side the Aussies put out with nearly half of their team having bad crashes last night..... Adams back in? Batchelor?

Maybe Ryan has been selected for commercial reasons too? Being in Peterborough he may get a few more through the gate? I know that I'm thinking of going along now he's riding and wouldnt have considered it normally!

Maybe there will be a tactical cold for Freddie if he is already a cert for next years series and Lindback will get in??

Line up should be Jurica Pavlic Jarosław Hampel Fredrik Lindgren Maksim Bogdanov Chris Holder Adrian Miedziński Piotr Protasiewicz Martin Smolinski Kenneth Bjerre Grzegorz Walasek Jonas Davidsson Kauko Nieminen Chris Harris Lukas Dryml Magnus Zetterström Dave Watt Some of the names expected to be there are missing out - including Zagar, Lindback, Schlein and Pedersen.... So we are 12 weeks in advance.....Who do you reckon for the 2010 GP series??

9 for Bomber which should see both him and Smoli into the Cov meeting!!

Thank you Shcked at the lack of Zagar and Lindback in the top 8........

Its been a while since any updates. Gafurov got a D in heat 4.....a D isnt some kind of crash is it??

Surely it will be the top 8 as long as 1 of Harris or Woffinden(bad start) qualify? Or am I being logical again? Lol! Hopefully Smolinski won't miss out on this basis!!

Next question......What time do they start?! Hope Freddie, Holder, Bomber and Woffinden all qualify...... also secretly supporting Rory Schlein - just don't tell any of the other Aces fans!!! Also fingers crossed for a good showing from Jimmy and Morten!!

Gutted Paddy had to pull out - Prob a year or 2 early for him tough. Maybe next year eh!?

I would suggest that it may be something to do with Rico's illness. He has suffered badly from very similar illness in the past and it took him a long while to get over it. Personally I'm a Crumpy fan in all situations but I will give the GB lads some support. I hope they don't get too much of a knock to their confidence and take plenty from the experience.

The punch up is also number 3 on The Guardian's "Our Five Favourite Things This Week" list......... And 50,000+ views on You Tube.....

Seems Speedway will get plenty of coverage from the bust up..... Daily Mail Daily Mirror The Sun The Telegraph

There was a rumour over the weekend about it being in July. Seems like a bit of a mad day to me though..... Same day as the 3rd/4th place match in South Africa for the footie World Cup and the day before the World Cup final...... And kick off will be 7.30pmGMT..........

Normally the meeting is the boring bit in the middle of the Cardiff weekend but I enjoyed it this year!! Firstly, many thanks to Sandie for sorting out what can only be described as the best seats in the house!! :D Scott v Emil - If Emil thought that was hard he will get a shock one day because there are many riders who are a hell of a lot tougher than Scott!!! Harris v Andersen / Andersen v Pedersen - Both right calls IMO - Hans had no chance of staying on but Pedersen jumped off. By far the best Cardiff meeting so far and a totally awesome display from Crumpy - my voice is still suffering the effects of an outstanding performance!! Looking forward to next year now!!!

Ive been getting the "2 heads" treatment all week at work too!! Cardiff = Best weekend of the year!!!

I want Crumpy to win LOTS!!!! But I reckon it will be Ped!

Its the place to be isn't it Sandie!!!

Congrats to Paddy, Darcy and the Brits on qualification!!
