Paulco

Final home league meeting of the season against the depleted Brummies . Paul Starke guesting in place of Ulrich . No idea what guests Birmingham have tonight . Should be a comfortable home win at fortress Ashfield

He could have just sat at the airport and had a burger . Oh wait he's not German

After Friday that was very satisfying . Predictably Ully and the porn star had another coming together, shame we lost our captain after the rerun . But it didn't really inconvenience us too much . Sheffield it is then , though I think the three teams having a home leg would be better reward for winning their groups

The away support looked a bit down in numbers than usual , but still makes sense to have that collection when we're there

Job done tonight , wasn't a bad meeting at all. Roll on tomorrow

Agree with that, us older school Tiggers dont associate with that

You have your share believe me , you dirty Danish paedo was one of the pleasantries I heard

Never mind who's riding for who . Just arrived in Berwick to the biggest shock ........the Brewers Arms is closed today

Apparently it's r/r for Cook. That would be a serious conflict of interests using Pickering

Agree with all that . I said to my wife at the time that I thought Ulrich was a bit naughty there , Thomson did well to stay upright . Shame the atmosphere turned toxic after the heat 15 incident and I hope all the wounded warriors from heat 1 are back racing soon .

Things got a bit silly tonight

Thought we were bad with two riders missing tonight , have you seen what Birmingham are rocking up to Poole with lol

Even the most die hard speedway fan is going to think twice about turning up for this

Calm before the storm

Thought that's what usually happened anyway ?

That my friend depends on which Craig Cook turns up . If he's on it , a point at least is achievable .

Along the M8 again to our nearest and dearest tomorrow night . No Tom or Ben as they are doing battle in Denmark in SON 348 . So it's our old pal Aaron Summers guesting and r/r . Dont ask me which way around it is , cause I haven't a clue . Anyway , hope we can get at least a point before hopefully 3 at Berwick so we can set up a decider on Sunday .

I've retired

Think we're looking like a battering tonight

We break from the league for this Mickley Mouse trophy . Tonight should be interesting though as Chris Harris is always entertaining and future Tiger , Knudsen , has his audition . Still it's usually a decent meeting when Berwick are in town , so a night of beer and entertaining speedway is on the cards

Yeah I hate using that as an excuse . That's what the Monarchs use after a defeat , we don't want to go down that road . After all , good or bad , the track is the same for both sides

Doesn't bother Craig , he gets booed at most places

Obviously because Glasgow helped with the visa process , the Banditos are now paranoid we're going to nab him for next season . We'll see how his trial goes on Friday night first .

A few halfwits booing Ben shouldn't have affected him , he'll need to learn to cope with that. I.know certain riders who used that to spur them on . Disappointed but not downhearted , in the grand scheme of things last night decided nothing , I'm sure we'll be more aware of what to expect if the play offs put us together . Lesson learned , it's still there for us .

Best chance we'll ever have on winning at Poole . Watched them at Armadale on Friday and wasn't impressed . Even if Craig is under the weather , its not huge issue . Our second strings and reserves could tip the meeting in our favour . If we can edge a win tomorrow night , top spot becomes a realistic proposition , but whether we finish first or second is pretty academic . On present form I dont fear anyone over two legs
