You can come and sit with us Joanne, we're all frendly and I've got an English - Jockanese phrase book

Joanne if you're going on Monday you can also get them from the Reading track shop

Not bad Chivs but you need to replace Stead with Louis around Reading (about 5 points difference) Thats providing Chris can score 5 in the World Cup of cause. Before anyone thinks I'm having a go at Steady I think he is a great rider He just always seems to have trouble at Smallmead. I think he's a must in the team for Poland but not the play off or final.

After tonights showing Louis and Loram are by far the best two Brits around Smallmead this season.

Mick Bell as Team GB Manager I'll second that one.

Problem is its at Reading not Arena. Dave Norris and Bomber both ride Reading well. I know I'm biased but I would seriously take a look at how Danny Bird is doing before naming the squad, he rides the Smallmead track better than half those in the top 5.

SWC website gives details and travel instructions of how to get to Reading for the playoff and final

Its been so bad a few times this year, we thought he already had.

Having just watched it again, I also think that if Scott hadn't seen him at the last minute he'd be in a Slovenian hospital today.

It is, but its about bums on seats as well and Lynn isn't quite as close to Heathrow as Reading. Reading staged some great WTC rounds in the past. Like Poole, Swindon and a well prepaired Oxford track it is fair, no weird shapes and if Ole Olsen does the track it dosn't matter where it is it will have as much grip on it as my head! but again its close to Heathrow, and with the Mad Stad carpark next door parking will be easy for everyone.
