Difference being at Leicester you don’t have to literally turn the bike inside out on the second bend to get up the back straight! Monmore is like no other, that’s why some top class riders have struggled there over the years and why even some bang average Wolves sides on paper, have still managed to make it a fortress. Wolves by 6.

Harsh. He’s doing exactly what it says on the tin with him. He’s been a 5-6 point rider for many years now, what were you expecting? At this stage of his career he’s not going to suddenly blossom in to a 7 point rider. There’s little surprise either with Andersen or Iversen. People said they were on decent averages, they never were. They’re washed up has beens whose averages were only ever heading in one direction! You’ve cut Basso some slack there because of his age which is fair enough, but if one rider so far has been a big disappointment it’s definitely him. He’s been awful.

And that makes perfect sense. Unfortunately Lisa is overprotective at anything said in a negative way about one of her precious boys.

What I like about that is that it’s a great cut back pass, but he knew Worrall was still on the faster outside line so moved out on the last bend to stop his run stone dead. Intelligent riding.

Then the “rumour” you talk of about of an ex promoter being interested to take over will come to nothing also then. If this ex promoter DOES take over, then that will prove Buster actually wasn’t asking too much and the purple man was never serious to begin with. A lot of things seem to make little sense here.

Pretty comprehensive that. No surprise that those tiny minority in the “right call” camp have shown a previous dislike of Jason Doyle. Not that their judgment is in any way clouded of course!

Why someone else? Thought Tomalin was THE knight in shining armor? Ok if it turns out to be a “rumour” and nothing more than that, but if someone else steps in and takes over it’ll prove some of you Panthers fans were taken in hook line and sinker by a second hand car salesman.

Really enjoyable meeting I thought with some good racing. BSN doing a great job with the streams. Rew looks a very talented rider, if he continues to improve and provides this sort of scoring to back up Doyle Emil and King then Ipswich are going to take some stopping.

You’ve gotta love Jason Doyle. British Speedway legend. Not many treat OUR league with respect like he does. He even turned up last night for a challenge at Poole where it didn’t matter a jot, and still rode his heart out to a full 15 point max. What a servant he’s been and we’ll all miss him when he’s gone. Can’t see others at the top table that does what he does here. We should all get behind him at the GP’s!

Shame from a Poole perspective they couldn’t get Rew’s signature. Looks miles ahead of the Cook’s talent wise. A few meetings around here and he’d be scoring bucket loads in the championship.

I have a hard time accepting that anyone can genuinely believe that a pit gate was damaged by stocks on a Monday, that would then cause a postponement of the Speedway on the Thursday because a part they needed wouldn’t conveniently arrive til the following day on the Friday. If there is anyone who seriously believes that then they probably also believe in Santa Claus and the tooth fairy.

Really not a good look for old Buster is it? Quite shocking really when you read all of his previous shenanigans like that.

LOL gullible in the extreme. Those that know, know.

I’m not against an early call off based on a weather forecast, but again, at least wait until the morning of the meeting to get a much more accurate forecast. Are we now at a stage where we’re all accepting and happy for meetings being postponed more than 24 hours in advance based on a ropey forecast? Never used to happen.

It was a bad forecast, but the decision was made more than 24 hours before the meeting. Every man and his dog knows how the forecast changes throughout the day. It’s always more accurate on the day, so if the forecast was still the same early this morning (which it wasn’t it had obviously changed) then they could still have made an early call off to save people from travelling.

It would have been one ride for Howarth, and 3 rides for Hume/Thompson. I wouldn’t say that strengthened exactly. Yes Rew has made a slow start here, but he’s getting better by the week. That’s obvious surely? They’re missing two important riders. They have a much better chance when Pickering is back at reserve who’ll be a serious weapon there around Lynn. I’d say no probably about it. How anyone can seriously buy that guff is unbelievable!

I actually prefer a one off winner on the night event than what they’d planned previously. It should have been a round at every track like last year so all clubs get a home leg, but if that wasn’t possible, this is a better alternative than giving three clubs a home track advantage and not the others. Only thing I’d have like to see changed is the venue. Nothing against Leicester, but they’re in the competition themselves so it’s still one club getting a home advantage. Couldn’t they have picked a neutral track in the Championship? Birmingham for example? It would also give a championship club’s fans the opportunity to see the likes of Emil and Doyle amongst others.

It took Louis literally months to wade through all the red tape for Emil, starting in early November and finally getting all clearance in early March. Why would Laguta be any different? If Leicester do announce Laguta and he can ride straight away, it’ll be interesting to know when they actually started the process of signing him. If it was months ago, then the plan along along must have been for Fricke or Harris to be a temporary signing.

That’s the whole idea of having more than one account. No point doing it if you’re going to post in the same style. One account to play the serious poster card, and another to act the forum pr!ck.

You know they are, Flappy.

LOL that’s rich coming from you! Do you want me to dig up all your pre-season posts from the vaults where you were championing his signing shouting from the rooftops that he was “a very good shrewd signing” that you were very happy with, even posting up his eye catching scores from the previous season to back up your comments?? Are you going to reply with this account, or log out and log in to your Basso account to throw in a laughing emoji?

That’s exactly what you and Flappy were predicting him to be this year at the start of the season. “One of the real big guns” wasn’t it? Now after a poor start you’re making excuses. Oh I bet they’ll be devastated about that!

Always wondered what happened to him! Travelling down for this and setting off early so any weather updates appreciated. I expect this to be close as well especially if Craig Cook is at reserve. Hume was poor again for Redcar last night and despite having the odd cracking ride for Ipswich here and there, just hasn’t really got going yet. Klindt has shown a liking for Foxhall in the past as has KK. If they find form Ipswich will be in bother cos Cookie is a certainty to rack up the points at reserve.

He did indeed ride but regretted it. He’s suffering from some sort of brain fog and dizziness that they can’t get to the bottom of. He thought he was improving slightly so gave it a go for Germany, but the same issues reared up again and he struggled to hang on to the bike. He could be missing for a while.

Of course you don’t! LOL nobody has to watch them to know that Craig Cook is a better rider than Ben Cook. Your bias towards anything related to Poole is literally off the scale and the reason anything you post regarding them can’t be taken seriously.
