Well this will be the first of two fixtures for me on Monday, weather forecast is good at the moment, Leon Flint to clean up at reserve but Aces top 4 get them enough points to creep over 45?

A bit harsh on Cook, while his away form has been poor he's been good at the NSS. Hope Zagar has a good night, could be his last visit to NSS.

Manchester City Centre to Altrincham is more like 45 mins than 10!

When the US are not even participating in the SoN?

Not really sure Manchester Storm Ice Hockey count... they're based in Altrincham.

That is a problem at Owlerton, 3/4 bends is definitely the best view due to the shallow steps on the home straight terracing & equipment on the dog track.

2021 was when RS was introduced, Flint was Wolves RS for 22 & 23 also. Brummies 24. Tigers 25 Born February 2003 so will be 23 when the next season commences.

Looks like an iffy performance from the Premiership form team against one of also rans.

Tigers always better Aces over 2 legs... until the playoffs Zishcke & Mulford get 6-7 between them.... don't be silly, Flint & Etheridge won't drop a point to them at NSS.. they may take a point off Rowe... Not sure I've seen him at NSS. Can't remember seeing Morris either.

No about 10! Yes it was and the best was yet to come in heat 12... Rew v Harris was tremendous. Sadly that was the last time the outside line worked because there was nothing out wide in the final 3 heats. Kvech gets passed by Barker in his 3rd ride then comfortably wins heat 13 in the quickest heat of the night.

A queue to get in.... What's this? Unfortunate timing I think doesn't look like there are any more people than usual inside the stadium.

So Flint (5.81) could move into the top 5 with Rowe (5.61) at 6 and Etheridge (4.76 BV 2022) at reserve?

Interesting comments from Pickering on the pod cast, Flint is riding awesome and will be in main body of the team soon... He's a RS isn't he?

Sheffield will win the toss, Belle Vue will be of the graveyard gate 3 times in the first 4 heats which will result in the Aces being 12 points behind by the start of heat 5.

Kings Lynn will win this evening even if Kerr only scores 4 and I'd suggest he'll score better than you have predicted. He's almost guaranteed to win heat 2!

Guessing rock / paper / scissors rather than a coin toss for gate positions?

The Tigers of Sheffield would like to thank Birmingham Speedway for two pathetic performances at Perry Barr which made our journey down the M1 worthwhile.... but mostly for lowering the average of Tobias Musielak, he's looking primed for a Owlerton return in 2026.

It was poor how Lemon managed the R/R situation... heat 3, 2-10 down and he puts in the hapless Zishcke who'd just been 5-1'd rather than Bewley. The track obviously wasn't what the Aces riders wee expecting so why not put the rider who knows the track best out early to try to figure it out? Aces could have used Bewley again to replace Lidsey as a TS anyway they were never getting a heat advantage in heat 4 with one of the reserves out.

Sheffield could find a second wind after their rejig. We'll see. Aces have been too weak at reserve all season. It's likely to be Witches v Lions final, is Becker likely to be fit? Becker's average is way above Masters' so R/R works But who are the candidates from Brummies, Spires & Stars who can guest? Considering Lions went with guest rather than R/R for KO Cup they may do the same in the playoffs.

Congratulations to the Witches on their first league win at the NSS. Aces down to 4 riders because the reserves are simply not good enough and haven't been all season.

Desperate move... Etheridge is averaging less for Workington than Voulas & Zishcke, Morris hasn't had a competitive ride for 2 years and was on the downward slope when he was suspended. It will make Tigers weaker I'm fairly confident of, but at least they're trying ..

Are you a troll? I forget. Iversen must be averaging more than any other Star to be at #1. Yet he could (I think) be the only one of the riders that turn up (not Cook) that hasn't spent any time this season at reserve? Musielak disappears, Cook disappears... what does the Norfolk air do to these generally committed riders? Congratulations Lions, it'll be 52+ for you at Beaumont Park easily.
