Mitch Cluff came into KJP's pits straight afterwards and apologised and then waited after the meeting to apologise in person to Kevin in the ambulance. As KJP has personally stated he has no issue with it, he himself said its easy to understand how Mitch got caught in the moment of finishing a great night of scoring. Mistake made,apology given, riders no issue, subject closed.

As I said previously no bike issues with KJP, sedgeman clipped his handle bar with his elbow.

Where was KJP bike failure today ? His 1st heat ,heat 3 Sedgeman clipped KJP's handle bar with his elbow hence the awkward line into the 1st bend.

Evenings cooler, moisture in track doesnt dry out, less dust and more grip, pretty simple really , dont have to be track specialist to work that out.

Sacrifice entertainment for silverware , win at all costs and all that ? Fair enough, each to their own, but when fan numbers drop you'll have the answer to why already. For Berwicks 1st meeting of the season and fair weather the crowd was less than great, I'd be more concerned about how to get more fans back rather than how to bore off your current remaining fans.

Along with learning UK tracks ,the lad is adjusting to also being over here on his own at a young age. Considering 1st race was Armadale, second was a wet Ashfield and third an extremely slick gate and go Shieldield he has still managed to score points, but time will tell if he can add to those points each meeting as he settles both on and off track.

Which is why you keep a highly knowledgeable track curator who knows how to deal with theses issues with off-season work and during season maintenance, something which has been sorely missing since Jonanthan Swales left Redcar IMHO.

Kevin certainly doesnt get put off by less than perfect track conditions due to weather. The lad can certainly gate, ride slick or grippy, can ride a tight inside line and when pushed to the outside isnt fazed either. Extremely professional approach , fantastic determination and looks like a great signing for Glasgow after outshining several heat leaders who know Ashfiled like the back of their hand.

1st visit to Plymouth will be this season, dont think the club gets enough credit for work and effort in changes and upgrades to their track to improve the racing ,safety and over all entertainment. Fair play Plymouth ,best of luck for 2026.

Flight availability/travel to Poland/Europe are far more restrictive from Glasgow than Poole, riders have said that themselves.

The possil crew ?! Nah we leave the wee men playing hardman to Coco the Clown and his Armadump Ultras.

Rakers physically pulling the dirt off the track now as well 😂, the desperation is embarrassing.

Could be worse , i could be wearing my Stone Island gear trying to square go kids and elderly folk.

Surely you didn't watch the stream Blobby, you not out recruiting for next seasons Monarch Ultras 🤡

Keep sucking those bitter lemons

Nothing like a bit of Poole arrogance and ignorance to prove everyone's point. Your track and its prep is a disgrace, so take your blue tinted glasses off, tell Ford to save his rider bonuses money and to spend it on material and track staff that have at least some clue in what their doing, because quite frankly a blind dog could ride around in a tractor for several laps scrapping every bit of dirt off it.

The best team won, pretty simple.

"Creating" 😂😂😂

Biggest crowds based on passing tourists, why do you think they start later in the season than everyone else. The only thing strange is your defense of a track that goes against the very core of speedway, DIRT. But keep on making excuses and ignoring the facts and see where your sport will be in 5 years time.

The final has f all to do with it, Poole have cheated speedway fans for years with a dire track.

Poole track prep every grade, every match and every year is blade top to the inside line, every bit of dirt removed.

And there goes 4 heats of dirt scrapped to the inside line. Win at all costs and all that 🙄

It gets the appropriate criticism because its a poorly prepared track, blue groove/ little to zero dirt, bumps and holes, simple.

So your saying that it has to be about money and nothing to do with the UK home track not suiting his style of riding ? I mean it's not like you've had a recent rider just bolt because he didnt have the track craft to ride Armadale. Dont have to spend millions to get good speedway or have a positive impact to the sport, your own club a prime example, racing at Armadale is regularly entertaining and your club are heavily involved in youth development in the sport, neither of which you can say about Poole. Rage bait 3/10 btw, effort was decent, originality disappointing. Come on Blobby I expected a higher caliber of troll than the old 'money' whinge.
