I'm as much in the know as you Barney - and likewise, as shocked at the announcement by MrMungo on Tuesday to say Stefan had been told he was sacked.

Isn't the idea of a competition to win? Who cares if a few people get their knickers in the twist along the way, it's good to know Somerset are deadly serious about winning and getting success. As I've said numerous times I'm sad to see Stefan go, and think the call to drop him is very harsh, all we can do as supporters of the club is back whoever is riding for us.... And the riders who are attempting to lift our first ever league title.

Very disapointting and difficult to get your head round to be honest, this has come completely out of the blue - one thing you can't fault though is the Somerset promotions will to get results and their ruthless side. It wasn't far off this time last year they were taking some stick for releasing Sam Masters which nearly turned out to be a master stroke... maybe this move will enable us to go 1 point better, but I'm struggling to see it at the moment. It's been a joy to watch Stefan this season, some of his racing has gone from the unthinkable to the extreme impossible and was always good value for money. Last night typified that, in ironically what turned out to be his last match for the Rebels in heat 14 when he came from nowhere to throw in everything including the kitchen sink on the final turn - I wish him all the best for the future.

Nicki Pedersen would do a good job too but I think his average is too high - so what the hell is your point? I haven't said we don't want to come top of the League either. You seem to get more and more inept day by day.

Steve Boxall is as popular on the terraces at Somerset as what you are.

Hope not.

Not really - Stefan has been a revelation as far as I'm concerned so struggle to see how it can be performance related. I can only presume the numbers game has struck again, which now starts the rumours mill as to who is coming in with two exiting, allegedly.

Care to elaborate on this?

Well he did it, and reeled Josh in a good'un to hitting the tapes. In short that was immense tonight, a proper cup tie that had everything - good racing, crashes, exclusions, uproar, heroes, villains and a 5-1 to finish the match off and set it up for a corker on Friday. You Monarchs fans should be in for a treat.

I completely see what you are saying, and for a challenge match I would be 100% agreeing with you - but for a league match where winning is absolutely critical given our situation and chance to get in the top 2, playing 'In the interest of fairness' doesn't cut it for me. Regards your first point, I'd settle for having Lubos Tomicek back at no.1 as oppose to that

I'm with you on this one OT - I can't honestly believe people are thinking that both teams running with R/R at no.1 would be good entertainment. I want to see the best riders and I want us to win. Having R/R for two of the very best that the League has to offer would be taking the pi$$ somewhat.

That's a poor show - these were the headline acts, and in their one race alone on Friday, that shown why. Poor decision I'm afraid to go on that date.

No complacency allowed in this one. Need to do a professional job. I'm Gary is well up for it. Need to Alex to have resolved his engine... errr.. frame.. or was it engine? Ermmm bike problem from Saturday. Think that's all the bases covered

You've been listening to Starman too much if you think finishing second is winning.

This has made my night

Probably the most sensible thing you've ever said.

A good result yet again for the Rebels, seems like Alex winning heat 14 and the big'uns coming good at the end won us this one. Excellent weekends work though and another 7 points to the original collection.

I have no idea what you are going on about, you sound like you have even managed to confuse yourself.

To be fair, there's more than just one person who thinks you post complete dross.

Do you even know what you're arguing? I'm the one who has been defending Alex you buffoon.

Mark Loram didn't say that at all - he said he needs to improve on the smaller tracks, which ironically Berwick is not. He proved what he can do at Plymouth on a small track. I'm sorry OT (and RebelRebel for that matter) but you are way out of line with your comments here.

Someone's taught you how to copy and paste now then? Garry would be proud, I'm sure.

What recent problems? The guy is probably in the form of his life, near enough untouchable at home and as I said on the other thread was our best rider on show at Plymouth last week. You and RebelRebel are unbelievable, one bad meeting at Edunburgh and he's having "a bad period" - give me a break. Shame to deal with these ridiculous posts first, but great result for the Rebels in another crushing win away from home. Our record of scoring no less than 41 continues and hopefully that turns into another win at Glasgow today.

What a load of rubbish you speak - I'm presuming you have forgotten that only just last weekend Alex was sublime at Plymouth and was leading heat 15 to win us the match when the race was stopped. Completely out of order and short sighted comment. We didn't expect anything from this match, but came up just short again by a point. Great result for when the play offs come around, as with our current home we're going to be league champions. Armadale is a tricky ol' track from when I have been there before, so we can't be disappointed - and go on and win at Berwick and Glasgow now.

In your deluded world maybe...
