How stupid is that, it was obvious from before the meeting that track was different to that day. Different riders, different engines need different setups.
There was overnight rain and track was ripped up this morning making track very grippy to start practise. It slickened off towards end so should be better for tonight. Just hope Phil Morris doesn’t interfere too much as let’s Andy Meredith get in with it when to water etc.
Will be hard trying to find a free Monday and Thursday when either team isn’t riding and to factor in and presume a rearranged meeting won’t have priority over Sweden on a Thursday as well.
Peterborough will be stronger without Bjerre.
Belle Vue can improve from last time too, Bewley will score more then 1 he did in his first meeting back last time and Wells can’t do any worst then his 0 last time.
Since last year it’s been tactical substitute from 6 points behind.
They heavily watered the track after heat 8 which wasn’t needed as it’s been overcast and cold, since then it’s been all Poole.
How has Lasse Bjerre green sheet average gone up 1.42 from 4.72 to 6.14!
He has scored 7 from 4, 3 from 4 and 1 from 3 in league meetings.
Moved up to 3rd in averages so Peterborough stronger without him now.

Didn't realise Chapman has made the Peterborough fans that depressed and grumpy that its effecting their judgement of the racing. At least you have 3 points to play with.
You said there was little passing after the first corner, which was factually incorrect. A lot of other tracks have that amount of passes in half a season or more. If it has been the Peterborough riders doing all the passing along with a closer scoreline I'm sure you would have said differently.
