The clue is in the cap he was wearing at the end of the meeting.

Just out of interest who does the EL fixtures.

Matt Ford will race in any league or set up as long as he wins because that's the only thing that matters to him.

Nah, always has his dad with him

He picked up drive, just a racing incident nothing more. Very good meeting with some excellent racing.

I would imagine no one is happy at this and I dare say the BSPA are not going to be impressed either as this is seriously bringing the sport into disrepute.

What on earth is wrong with Barker this year, he has been complete pants away from home but that top four should be doing better than this.

Correct, Hemsley is just trying to muddy the waters.

I can only agree, fully deserved his win and a really nice guy as well.

Clearly you have got the same degree (complete bollux) that Morrisey Fan has.

Correct, don't you remember Peterborough being stopped from signing Thorsell last year on exactly that point.

The bar prices are ridiculous and so is the food, we bring our own drinks and not unsurprisingly quite a few of the regulars do the same.

Clutch cable problem, I spoke to his dad afterwards Good match and a good result, but it certainly wasn't easy. Just need to get NBJ bikes going, he looked well under power again last night.

Criminal threatening (or threatening behavior) is the crime of intentionally or knowingly putting another person in fear of bodily injury. "Threat of harm generally involves a perception of injury...physical or mental damage...act or instance of injury, or a material and detriment or loss to a person." Abusive behaviour is mainly verbal and although clearly not pleasant especially when minors are around doesn't generally make the person being abused feel threatened with violence. (Name calling and swearing etc)

I see an amalgamation of the leagues has been mentioned a few times but people should bear in mind half the PL currently ride in the EL now so where are the extra riders coming from?. I still think if the leagues ride on different nights and anyone can double up or down irrespective of average would solve a lot of the current problems.

Nothing cloudy about it, if the Match at Ipswich is off its no facility on Friday.

Apparently you can if the two clubs are Edinburgh and Belle Vue.

Cook rides for Panthers as BV don't have a meeting on the 10th.

Signing Barker improves the Witches but let's not forget he was dropped by Glasgow for poor performances. Remains to be seen if he gets his form back, just not convinced Foxhall is his sort of track.

To be fair I think everyone thought no 7,s stayed at no 7 regardless of average but the BSPA decided otherwise.

Being fair that wasn't a bad meeting, clearly the track being wet helped enormously, The interviews of Cook and Adams were amusing as well. But the telling comment came from Tatum who stated riders generally don't like riding at Lakeside, looking at the fact no one appeared to be there I think that goes for spectators as well.

A very good point, good our rulebook isn't it.

Thorsell cannot ride PL this year as his 2016 EL starting average is above 6.00

To be fair I thought Vardy did a good job yesterday and I think a warning was on the money for those transgressions. Let's be fair the difference between referees has always been light years, some good, some average, some bad and Horley who truly beggars belief at times.

Heat 8 was a great race with Lambert going from last to second. If gate and go isn't your thing you must get bored pretty quick at Foxhall.
