Sorry. This boring match is making me not so alert ;-)

Presume you left the room and missed the last heat then?

Give Peter York a microphone and tell him to stand on the edge of the car park. That should shift them Seriously. I hope this situation can be brought to an end and Coventry find some way to return to Brandon or somewhere else.

Would have bit your hand off for a point, but a bit of a sucker punch to lose at the death. Poole have every right to be concerned though. On paper a match they should have won comfortably.

I saw fighting at Wolves Cradley, never mind chanting! The lack of atmosphere on the terraces pretty much epitomises the decline of the sport here over the years. Monmore being a classic example. I've been in the stadium when it's been raucous, yet the mood now is so tame. The play off final last season shows what can be done when a decent atmosphere is generated.

PK was still riding on a regular basis. Always a big risk to bring Skornicki back after doing so little racing since 2014.

Certainly could be forgiven for thinking Skornicki was riding as if he's already been told he's out the door

Thorssell is poor value on 9.89. He's completely reliant on gating and can't perform on the road, despite racing here for 5 seasons. He's simply not as good as the Wolves management and some fans think he is.

Bottom line is that we have problems all across the board. With weak reserves, we're in a position where we will go into a good seven or eight heats where the best we can hope for is a shared heat. If you have heat leaders and second strings not delivering it simply makes matters worse. Our reserves haven't been just poor - they've barely competed. In affect, we are trying to win matches with a 4 or 5 man team. You simply won't win many matches like that. We got away with it last night because Leicester contrived to throw away a meeting they should have won comfortably.

Adam was excellent on Saturday, but was very poor tonight - not that he was alone.

The racing was pretty much a premium compared to the Poole meeting last week and Saturday at Rye, but the close scoreline kept it interesting. Did see quite a few Leicester fans (certainly more than the last few times). Would add to New Science's comment by saying that the decision to pull heat 11 back was a joke. Nilsson tried to get a roller and messed up, yet the race is pulled back.

Wow. We got out of jail big style tonight. Crazy from Lynch to not put Bates in heat 14 and then choosing King for the last heat. Leicester really threw the win away

Adam was very much on the pace and did what was asked of him.

I still remain unconvinced by Thorssell. His away for has always been a concern and is still very reliant on his gating. He's been here for 5 years now and neither have improved much

Howarth has really impressed me tonight. Less said about our reserves the better.

He isn't rubbish, but certainly not as good on the road as at Monmore.

Not particularly shocked by that scoreline. Don't see many away wins this season. Team is far too weak at reserve and Thorssell away from Monmore isn't as potent

Could hear all that and Porky fine. But couldn't hear any heat times or changes until after the interval. Loads of people around me commented

To be fair the PA outside was so bad in the first part of the meeting then you wouldn't have been able to hear any announcements even if it was made. I stand on the last bend and could barely hear a thing from the box. A real mixture of a meeting. The first five or six heats were pretty dull and the long delays between didn't help. The turning point seemed to be Freddies ruthless move on Kurtz. After than, we saw some terrific action. However, we certainly need to improve our gating when the league action starts. Other than Thorssell (who was exceptional) Poole were far better out of the start.

In Brum at the moment and has persisted it down all morning. Suspect practice may be in doubt

Bradford never had brilliant crowds in the 80s and 90s - though the size of the stadium made it more obvious. And this wasn't a club that constantly finis bottom either. They were always a good cup side, won a league championship and had some very good riders as well. A shame as it was quality track, especially for big meetings

It's dog eat dog. BT are only doing to Sky what Sky did to terrestrial channels years ago and cherry picking the best sport.

Did list Milton Keynes, but missed off list so have added now. Am going only from 1990

I'd trust satan before I trusted Sandhu or Horton.

Added it now. St Austell would be under Trelawny
