Just watched this recorded meeting. If Leicester naming a #8 is still allowed and that rider could have taken a ride I hope from this point forward Leicester always name a #8. Hope all the injured riders are not badly injured. Hope Eric Riss thinks about where his team mate could be in the future. Fair play to Swindon for taking advantage of Leicester misfortune.

As long as it is Belle Vue, Swindon, Wolves, Rye House, Leicester or Somerset I don't care. I mostly hate British Speedway.

In average reduction mode, as is Lindgren. Let Schlien, Howarth & Masters score the points - Lindgren & Thorsell are coming back next year. Their play off spot is all but confirmed, Wolves will not lose at home, why win away when they can pick up the odd point & send the home fans home victorious? Political gain. Thorsell was mentioned by many Swindon fans as being the only real guest replacement for Doyle in some threads, so they obviously rate him in Wiltshire.

Ford too bung Lindgren & Thorsell enough dosh, so they only look like they are trying, but score very little. Yet Pirates to inept to win anyway. 46-44.

You reply to everything continually, even after you have been proved wrong several times. You make Wolves threads a pain in the arse to read.

This was far from the worst meeting broadcast on TV. Thought Rye House would keep it closer with Lindgren underperforming. Alas. It is clear that while they make solid performers as heat leaders neither Harris or Nichols gate regularly enough to be even British League #1s any more.

Brilliant stuff from Holder & the Stars engine room.

Woffinden would not have got us anywhere near Sweden. Unless Eastbourne's diabolically shaped track hosts a GP final Poland are not going to be beaten with that quartet.

So Rosco's words of wisdom. If in doubt, ride the white line.... What a team manager, WTF were Cook & Lambert doing?

I have just watched events 1&2. Fantastic stuff from Västervik. Can't believe the Danes are out, since when I last visited Poland for a SWC event, they won it, on the last corner of the last lap in brilliant style. The Danes & the Czechs need new team managers. Dreadful Joker choices. I don't care which SGB Premiership team they sign for any team signing Ļebedevs & Milík are on to a winner.

With Holder & Batchelor providing the away resistance? Neither were good at Monmore before their relative lack of form issues, I'm surprised they got 40.

11 heats of gate & go rubbish. Has Ford not paid his water rates? First bend is more like scrambler action than speedway.

Tungate is an improvement on Sedgeman. But he very much blows hot, cold, hot, hot, cold.

Harris. Nobody forced KL to sign Holder on an average that was unattainable (12+). But nobody expected Holder to be as rubbish as he has been. In fairness to him he has also been rubbish in Sweden, Poland & the GPs. So he is not in total reduce average to return to Poole mode next year. Lambert was always going to improve, Batchelor wasn't much of a gamble on that average, Huckenbeck was always going to be a free scoring reserve. If KL have had the option to bring Bjerre back instead of Holder & bolster the middle order that would have been the route to go down. But I didn't think that at the time, when teams were announced early in the year thought KL would be the most solid team. In Retrospect Stars should have signed Bjerre instead of Holder and fitted Schlien in.

Chris Holders pathetic efforts for Kings Lynn will surely mean you get a rejuvenated #1 on a pathetic average next year, Ellis is performing similarly rubbish for Swindon. Hes another shoe-in. How do you Poole fans sleep at night?

Well done Aces on an unexpected away win. Gutted for the Stars, who clearly need to get rid of a few riders and draft in replacements before it is to late if it is not already. Can Stars retain Huckenbeck, Batchelor & Lambert while bringing in Andžejs Ļebedevs & Václav Milík? Holder is under performing and needs to go, despite the rider he was 5 years ago. Stars need to be ruthless.

I hate posting in Wolves threads for fear of a SB's response. But how long is Riss likely to be out?

Are you a massive Holder fan by any chance? :)

Should read... Morris has surprised everyone with their performances to date.

Joining Poole on a minus -1.50 average. You heard it here first folks.

The points scored by the two R/R's made the difference, credit Lemon for getting the most out of the facility.

Good win for Rebels, glad changes have worked out. Bjerre, Worrall & Fricke must be gutted by the performance of their peers.

From reading the updates, it sounds like a great meeting. Glad Harris has found some form, finally. But glad Stars got back to winning ways.

With the two teams they signed that is pretty much the result I would have expected TBH, had hoped for more from Ellis, alas. At least Holder finally turned up for the Stars. I hope this away win kick starts their season.

Was at the Gorzow GP last year which was fabulous, was there when Bomber won in Cardiff which was fantastic but this was better in terms of excitement. Lindgren is riding like a man possessed in a good way, fair play to him. Such a clever turn back in the final and such a great race with Doyle earlier in the meeting. Shame he is a Wolf! Pedersen maybe the new Harris in terms of scoring but he is still capable of being an utter danger to riders he can out gate which is something Harris was never capable of.
