I think there might have been a pass in heat 12 as well? Danny King made 1 pass, Masters made 1 pass, Wright made 2 passes in one heat. Apart from that, it’s been one for the die hards.

A good pass from Danny King, but I think that’s it?

Having a Scottish ref in a meeting involving a Scottish team is no stranger than having an English ref in a meeting involving an English team. Some people come up with the weirdest nonsense.

Moving on is fine, but to go from “everything’s fine” to “meeting cancelled” in 5 minutes is dreadful. You have to communicate better than that. Good on Jim McGregor explaining on BSN but it seems pretty amateur hour overall.

It’s by no means the worst meeting I’ve seen from Monmore Green. Not amazing, but bearable. Not a glowing endorsement, I concede…

We'll see. You'd fancy all three teams to make the semi finals if at full strength. Glasgow suffering a bit with injuries at the moment but hopefully we can make it work. Not sure if we can get Sedgemen guesting on Ulle's average? Might be a good fit given how he's been going this year. Hopefully Cookie and Basso will be fully fit by then.

Depends what you want. If you want the title, you obviously want top 2. I'd take an extra home meeting and lose the final because I just like watching bikes race around the totally unsuitable, narrow, bumpy, boring Glasgow track that clearly doesn't deserve to host anything on two wheels and bores DiamondsGeezer to death

On a positive note, not making the top 2 would potentially give Glasgow an extra home fixture

What do you want them to do? Race around the ambulances? Just push the riders over the fence? Cancel the meeting?

I think it’s all in the head. He displays some sublime speed and technique on the bike, but he just doesn’t put it together when it counts. Go back to SGP last year and see how often he beat Zmarzlik in the heats… Bewley just doesn’t seem to feel pressure though.

Have to say, that was fabulous racing tonight, particularly after the first few heats. Heats 4 & 8 would good, but the others early relied on good gating. After that, it just got better. Of course delays can be a bit frustrating, but I didn’t hear any complaints at the track. The accidents were unfortunate but the track was good. Milik took in too much speed when the track was grippy. I think Thomsen was aware the meeting was getting away from him. Holder was unlucky Bellego couldn’t avoid him. No idea about Berntzon’s crash - it’s likely conditions were trickier in practice, in fairness. Fricke, Holder, Lebedevs (early on, at least), Jensen, and Jepsen Jensen (later on) all produced some great racing. Kubera, Wozniak, Bellego all nowhere, sadly. Saw a comment about it being the worst meeting at Glasgow this year. Get yer head checked. It did take a few heats to get the racing we are accustomed to, but when it came, it was absolutely sensational.

There's a fire on the centre green from the fireworks now!

Two race offs to come, I think, for first and third.

He offered plenty tonight though.

Those last two heats were absolutely epic. Nothing wrong with the track!

A break for Nilsson in heat 18 - I think we'll be out of reserve rides to replace Milik

Bikes back on track ..

He's being moved right now. I'm sure they'll continue as long as they have medical cover.

Generally the fastest riders cut in on turn one and float wide. Turn 3 differs more, but the best racing is when they can just ride the boards. Not fastest tonight, but I believe he's got the fastest time this year, unless it was beaten in the test match.

He beat Kubera. Also best Lebedevs, but that was more fortune as he got a bit beaten up in a crowded turn one.

I didn't see anything unusual in front of him, and it was Connor Bailey who is as fast as anyone around Ashfield this year.

They did the hokey cokey with Holder's ambulance too. No idea why.

As if he hasn't missed enough gates already.

I could do it, I guess...

Never heard of one
