They were waiting to work out how they sort out 4th place which tbh didn't need to leave the fans waiting for as was obvious there would be no more racing. Could give them all the wildcard spots but don't know if that is right for all the wildcards to be from one meeting.

Zero chance. Is is 12 or 16 heats for a result, if its 12 they might be hoping to just get a run off for 4th done?

Love watching the bikes go through Maggots and Becketts, the way the riders have to position themselves to get through it really showcases their skill

Maybe BSN weren't able to do it, only other reason I can think of? Think last years semis were around August-September time last year if I'm remembering correctly.

He did manage to complete heat 4 and wasn't off the pace, don't know the pain he is in but knowing speedway riders and how important this meeting is he might try, if he does I hope he doesn't end up injuring himself further. Think Tom Brennan missed out on the wildcards when he did it despite there being no other Brits in the field and he just missed out on a qualification spot in the toughest quali so wildcard for Dan I would think is unlikely.

I'd assume it's Klindt who would have to negotiate to let Plymouth have priority, I don't remember Brennan skipping out on British league matches for Poland over the last few years for example. Maybe GB need to add a rule to stop this sort of thing but while they don't there should be no punishment as they are following the priority rules.

Does Poland not have blanket priority over Friday-Sunday so he has to ride over there if they want him and Plymouth would get a facility?

Are there not a couple of wildcard spots? Though I think they normally go to then next best from the qualifiers

Hope all 4 riders in the final are alright after that strange finish

1. Hagon 2. J Thompson 3. Harrison 4. Cairns 5. Mulford 6. Scott 7. Perry 8. A Pijper 9. Hodder 10. Trigger 11. Killeen 12. Foord 13. Boughen 14. McGurk 15. Summers 16. Shimelt 17. D Thompson 18. S Pijper (Hopefully I've done the count back right)

Hope Dan is okay, scary looking crash

There will be extra water breaks throughout the meeting in case BSN didn't mention it.

To be fair he did finish 8th so would have been in the semis if we were using last years format, just a few riders scoring all the points

That looked horrible

Forgot that, still have the semi finals in my head

He'll qualify in the last position, come from behind to nick 2nd in the LCQ and then have a perfect gate to win the final.

Phil Morris saw this comment and decided we couldn't be having any entertainment and flooded the track

Real shame as he looked good in the meetings I saw him in. Unless they pull a miraculous signing I can't see Edinburgh even finish 8th especially when Victor gets his real average.

Only a draw if you lose (I don't like them either)

He came 3rd but that might be one of Ashton's most promising rides, kept stuck in for all 4 laps

Think he might be on a 4.50 converted from his Prem average which would certainly be a masterstroke as he could go to reserve when Mitch gets his average

Happy to see Gusts will still be riding in the UK. Ashame for Gilkes though and hopefully he'll be able to recover well and quickly. If he is out for longer, I am looking forward to seeing Gusts at Glasgow as I rate him highly.

Gutted for Bomber, thought he was going to win the whole thing into the last lap and he finishes it last.

As Glasgow fans we are used to our kids races (we do 2 now) the issue is that it looked like after that had finished there was a further 15-20 minutes of nothing happening on track at all, not even a tractor going round. Maybe BSN missed some stuff or if there were multiple interval entertainment sections spreading them over the other intervals instead of just one would have helped. My guess was a sun delay that BSN wasn't told about but have no clue if the sun was even out.

Ashton made it through the first corner without shutting off, that's an improvement
