That's a hell of a weak side in my opinion... I hope it doesn't effect the gates too much. Lowering the admission to a tenner was a good move though... Fair play to Len for giving youngsters a chance to try their luck and progress, but I'm not sure this is the way to go though. Perhaps a few years ago when the CL was set up as a training league, but these days the NL seems to a step or two above that... Wish the guys all the best. It'll be interesting to see how they progress

Unfortunately a prior engagement means I'm missing my first p & p for years,,, enjoy everyone, see you at Ipswich next Thursday

Not one of Lanhams greatest fans, always though him as a gating tart, but happy to see him in Rockets colours until nelson sorts himself out... Good news for both parties as he'll be in the shop window for when a team place becomes available.

I'll definitely be going whoever he's riding for... Could be an interesting evenings racing if they're all up for it!

My understanding is that Eddy will be lining up for the Panthers in place of Lasse Bjerre.

Heard various different stories, but we never really got to the bottom of it. Still, it gave everyone else a good laugh... Hopefully the bad influences have left the club, so we can look forward to having no outside distractions when the season gets going in 32 days

Press & Practice Day confirmed for Friday 9th March. No start time as yet, but there is usually action from 11am... Also practice on Thursday and Saturday that week.

At the moment I'm planning on coming down for the PL match with Rye House on 20th July and again with Berwick on 14th September... Hope to see you there

Don't think young Najjer was around when Somerset first opened, otherwise he'd have surely remembered the ramshackle place it was in the early days!

Nobody ever complained at Wimbledon!

Looking forward to it, although it will be pretty cold being earlier than last years event!

My thoughts on Leicester is that the straights are too long for the tight bends... Planning to make my first visit(s) to Plymouth this year (with Rye House & Berwick)... Bringing my own fold up chair!!

Not so much Leicester, but that awful track!

Looking forward to it!

Love him or hate him it's good to have Fisher back in the PL

Carrot cruncher humour... marvellous!

Could be that they won't be paired together, with Luke possibly being at 2 and Ritchie at 3 or 4, although one of them will probably drop to reserve in the first GS

Are you a regular at Rye House?... If so, I may as well come over and take your money while I'm taking Bolly's... I'll even give you 100/1 that Ritchie wins at least one race this year!... How about it?

I think the bookies are being very stingy... I'd add another zero onto those odds! Saying that, if there is only one side with longer odds I presume that means they expect us to finish second bottom which is clearly nonsense!

Rumour has it he's using Steve Boxall's 2011 bikes

I think he was a reserve at Cardiff in 2008, but didn't get a ride.... I'm now not sure Linus was a Rocket when he rode in a GP

Wasn't Linus a reserve in a GP while he was with us?

2nd January and it was cold!!

Time off or not I'm going... About time I threw a sickie!

Good shout, but we're at the mercy of the Moanarchs promotion who sort out all of the PL fixtures... The Rockets Northern tours seem to be taking place earlier and earlier in the season, so don't be surprised if we're travelling up there in late April when there will still be snow on the ground!
