Drama queen? Watch the video replay - Crump committed to turning left to avoid THJ then found his path blocked by THJ's still moving bike. Which also ended up on the centre green. So he had to go further left to avoid it. What would you have done in the fractions of time available?

Actually, he seems to "misguided" more and more these days. Shame, really, as he used to be reliable as the forum's rules' expert. He seems to have changed since the Coventry/Peterborough debacle of 2010/11. Come back the SCB we know, love and can trust By the way, I cannot believe all the suppoprt for THJ. After all, he is a Poole asset and was clearly advised by the Prince of Darkness from his Spanish lair to jump off his bike to make Nicki P look bad

Am I just being thick (again) but is it not 4am SATURDAY? These time differences do my head in but I thought it was already the early hours of Saturday in NZ and the GP is being run on Saturday night?

The problem is that "the paper" may be talking rubbish but the Devils own website says that Bowden has agreed deals with Barker Werner and Glanz. Mind you, if he has changed his mind about Werner, few would blame him, so why doesn't he admit he had done a deal but one or other parties decided not to go ahead? This guy makes Matt Ford look like a saint.....well maybe that's going too far

Sorry - useless phone won't let me edit! What I meant was that Darcy was riding the inside line half the time rather than "20 cm from the fence". Pretty exciting it wad too

Why do you say that and then come up with a load of biased comments? I don't see Darcy's alleged fall as that was during closed practice - how did you see it? I thought the meeting was anything but dull though it lost bit of sparkle after the heat 6 crash. Nothing to do with the track. Both Pawlicki brothers did a decent job, though Piotr was better than Shamek. Vaculik was pretty good for a first time visitor Michael Jepson Jensen wasn't as good as I thought he would be. Janowski was good value - as he was the last time he rode at Poole. The crowd wad a lot better than 1500. The stand at Poole holds 1200 and there were another couple of hundred in front of it plus the bends plus the glass fronted stand. I would guess at over 2000. There was a racing line close to the fence, but half the time, Darcy was riding right on the fence. And speaking if fences, it came from Swindon not Coventry. I rather suspect that Mr Sandhu would be reluctant to lend Mr Ford anything!! Otherwise, your report was "unbiased"....yeh, that'll ne right!!!

Actually, I think you will find that there WAS something sinister in Merlin's comment - even though most "Weegies" seem to be paranoid these days!! He posted: "I spoke to Kevin on Friday night after the match against Somerset at Armadale and he told me he might be riding for Glasgow at Newcastle today (Monday). I wonder how he knew then? Mind you he thought it was Travis McGowan he was replacing! Strange....I understand he's on his way to Newcastle even as I post this." The implication of the comments "I wonder how he knew then" and "Strange" suggests that there WAS something sinister going on. Someone has pointed out that he wouldn't have replaced McGowan as that would only have been r/r and he also couldn't have come in as a guest if both Dicken and Branney had been out as his average is too high. So, either it WAS planned for both McGowan and either Dicken or Branney to be missing so that Glasgow could have a guest OR Screen deliberately got himself concussed yesterday so as to be ruled out on medical grounds today. I don't believe that about Screen so there MUST be something "strange" going on. Or have I missed something here???

There are three rounds - tomorrow at Gillman, Sunday at Mildura and then on the 9th at Newcastle. Points are 20 for first down to 2 for 16th. Have a look at http://www.ma.org.au/AM/Template.cfm?Secti...entFileID=53436 for full details...including the prize fund!

Is there no one doing an organised trip? I fancy going to this or else to the Czech Golden Helmet which is the same weekend but have no idea where to start in terms of flights, hotels etc so it would be good to do a preset trip

never mind the decision - who is the guy in the edinburgh racejacket with duggo on his forks cover?
