But everyone didn't race against everyone. Glasgow had beaten Poole Oxford and Redcar in the qualifying heats. And took maximum points from their one heat against one of the weaker teams

Any suggestions for replacements? Yes Ashton Boughen would have been worth risking but apparently his father wanted heat leader points money and a signing on bonus. Think Lee will reinvest in engines, thanks to a sponsor. Ace is doing his job just wish he'd gate more often.

Tarasenko would be on the same five point assessed average as Wojdylo. But it will probably be blocked.

Plymouth taking a leaf out of the Poole handbook - let's have a slick track to counter Glasgow (per Ben Barker), rather than entertain the fans with good racing.

Emil and Artum had 8 point assessed averages this season so presumably Bartosz would as well. I'm sure if a championship team tried to sign an elite rider on an assessed average then it would be blocked by his Ekstraliga team

Jason Edwards also didn't appear in either meeting. Vatcher just throwing Connor Bailey under the bus for no apparent reason. And why is Neil Vatcher even involved in the decision making?

Connor Bailey qualifies as British on his mother's side. Has always declared he'd ride for GB not Australia and has previously ridden for GB in Europe. FYI Drew Kemp was born in Germany

Having 3 world class riders should be enough to win if the team managers use their brains and apply the Czech's policy. Move Dan to reserve and put Tom at 2. Tom & Adam take their first ride then are replaced by Dan. If we fall 6 points behind the leader then Tai or Robert can take a tactical ride. There's only 20 heats, six rides each for the top 3 only leaves two to be ridden by Adam and Tom. Challenging for Gold then maybe Tom & Adam have to take a second ride in rounds 4 or 5 ie heats 13-20

Bewley £100 less Zmarzlik £100 more

According to Cami Tate Zishke would be on a five presumably now that he's ridden in Polish u24 had he not been out for six months with concussion think he would have started the season on a 4 point average at Glasgow NB no punctuation just 4u Cabbageman

I'll give them the trophy for worst track in the Championship. Only seen two meetings as bought the BSN Championship season pass but the worst two meetings I've seen this season.

Is that your prediction for Friday night at Scunthorpe?

Sorry 2 passes well done Anders Rowe, that'll be those Polish bikes. Probably see more passing in heat 1 at Glasgow

Thanks to Rob Godfrey blocking them using Friday nights and rain offs they had ridden two home meetings from March to June both against Glasgow. So they were around bottom of the league due to not having ridden many meetings. Then they went on a winning run winning everything. Probably rode 10 home in October and still didn't complete their league fixtures, final meeting after all the finals had been raced abandoned. Then Godfrey fined them!

Some races? Must have missed some passes or maybe it was BSN who missed them. Zach Cook down the back straight in heat 14 lap 1 was the only genuine pass on the night. Every other pass was because of hole/ridge on 1st bend

Where's this improved track? Still gate and go. Got to be the worst track in the championship - shocking! You'd think Poole could afford two ambulances. It's a final after all.

Glasgow embarrassing in a final yet again. But absolutely c**p track, heat 14 before a genuine pass and yet the Poole riders were praising the track. Glad I don't have to watch that every week Congratulations to Poole on their first trophy of the season.

There was a guest, Claus Vissing had to withdraw due to German commitments. Drew Kemp rode for Glasgow. A fan favourite not! Given he's ridden for Edinburgh, Poole and now Leicester

Fricke £100 less Janowski £100 less Wozniak £100 more

He said that moving to Monday or Friday next year were the options and very surprisingly didn't rule out going Premiership. Also said they'd have a new rider for next week. However he did think that they'd constructed a competitive team for the start of season but were beset with bad luck. And still thought they could make the playoffs

Well Mike Hunter wasn't impressed

What promise did Bastion show last week? It didn't show up on the stream. He was hardly in shot as he was way back and your comms said his gating was hopeless. And they'd seen the same in Danish league

Weight of the world on his shoulders? Have Edinburgh not provided a sick note to get the guest facility in previous meetings? If there's no injury then why have they not announced he's withholding his services.

And that wasn't exactly a bad meeting 4 points from 4 rides. Lost a chain in one, last against Doyle & Sayfutdinov and two seconds. Don't know where he picked up the back injury. Packing up his bikes?

Pearson cannot drop below his 4pt assessed average so that loses you 0.62. Leaving only 8.66. Don't think you're looking for two 4 point riders. Don't think anyone available on 6.66.
