Decent away point, another step towards a top 4 place. Surely if Boughen rides, we take the spoils. Take away Poole and there's not much to choose between most of the others on any given day, just need something extra come play off time.

I was talking about Oxford getting into the top 4, obviously Poole will be miles clear from 5th

The fastest line for a few weeks now has literally been an inch from the fence, more so on turns 3 and 4. Whilst this has produced a few great heats, it's an accident waiting to happen, especially at Championship level with more inexperienced riders on track. The Heeps crash could so easily have been worse with his bike running loose. Boughen bounced off the fence a few weeks ago but got away with it.

Even if the first running stayed, was a 3:3 entering corner, 2nd running was a clear 3:3 before Heeps came down, heat eventually ended a 3:3, no bad luck there. Draw probably a fair result, not a fan of super heat but the extra point may well be the difference between top 4 or not.

Kerr Riss and being well under the limit leaves plenty of room for improvement, alongside only just winning at home, no chance of any bonus points. If we are serious about trying to finish in the play offs, changes needed fast. Or are we happy to just see the season out and see if running 3 teams is viable?

Don't think Freddie was on the horizon but need to move before our next home meeting i reckon.

Lindgren now at Brum while we still have 5 points going spare.

How long until our new GP rider is announced?

The way Spooner was talking , sounds like he'll be lucky to ride at all this season.

There's enough points spare to do anything they want, no reason for average to come into it.

I take it the Villa v Liverpool match just down the road had nothing to do with this call off?

If Riss has too much in his schedule, could easily drop his Spires places as they have virtually 5 points to play with for a replacement and link up with the Cheetahs instead.

Perry needed to take his third ride so no replacement would have been allowed, only to start from -15.

Who realistically would/could race here?? You'd obviously take Lambert/Vaculik/Lindgren but seems unrealistic. Michelson? Thompson? Pr Pawlicki? Would be a massive missed opportunity not to use the points available.

The obvious change would be either Riss or Cook, depending on how they get on over the next few weeks. Assuming there is an actual rider available and willing to come in.

Crowd seemed to be well down on normal Cheetahs meetings. Not a fan of the way both teams have been made up, can see a few heavy defeats away from home. Some cracking racing, a tremendous tussle between Nicholls and Harris. Overall, a deserved win on aggregate I would say.

If you are definitely going, remember to get your ticket at least the day before to avoid an additional cost.

With Cook signing for the Spires, is it all just waiting for the averages to fall right and move Riss to the Cheetahs and then use the points available to sign somebody for the Spires? Would Jody Scott be ready for a number 7 berth? Would be a long tail but the team has been built poorly imo leaving little room to manoeuvre.

Is it all just waiting for the average to fall right and move Riss to the Cheetahs and then use the points available to sign somebody for the Spires?

Would help the racing if you could get a more even starting gate, thou most are the same, nearly always one shocking gate.
