Rain passed through and barely wet the ground... I've got nothing else

Just about to have a spot of rain by the looks of it... could this be a leveller?

Not really that committed then, not a great example to set the riders... wasn't he playing golf for the Plymouth match?

Good effort from Cleggy, no doubt, but for me Mountain was involved in 3 important 5-1's setting the tone for the rest of the night in heat 1

Can't be bothered?

Connor Mountain: Man of the Match

You gotta feel for the Monarchs fans... it's so disappointing when your team just doesn't turn up, especially in what may be their last match for some time

Looks like the special one has fed the Lions some wide awake pills to get them out of the starts! Just got to avoid a 2nd half collapse

So again... we have a Poole infestation on the Edinburgh vs Leicester thread! I'm calling Pirate Pest Control

Every thread does... Poole fans spread across the forums faster than Covid!

Don't agree about the rest of it but he defo fenced MPT that much is for sure

So, you're saying he did do it?

Morris 10.78 at home top of the averages but only 3rd away with 8.10

10+2, 11+3, 6+1, 6+1, 8, 8+2, 5+3, 4, 2, 7+1, 8, 3+1, 4+1 are his home scores this season, took a dip mid season when he was promoted into the main body of the team and continues as Lions spent less and less time on track. True his home form is a lot better than his away form but that's the case for most riders at his level. The finger needs pointing at some of the more experienced riders for some of their away performances imo.

yes, on the Lions website

That's the Lions 2nd most improved rider you're talking about, only bettered by Kyle Howarth

It must be because the numbers quoted are those that it would have cost 30 years ago.

They've not left themselves with many options should either or both of these get postponed for the any number of reasons meetings get called these days

No Champers again!

I was up at the NSS yesterday for the British Championship... so thought I'd take a snap of the pile of tyres which appear to me to be mostly unused

Another forum you've infiltrated trying to spread the Pirates gospel?

Damien Bates on the podcast didn't outright say it but indicated they had been asked

What's the weather doing up there in sunny Manchesterland? Was thinking of making the trip up, weather doesn't look great though!

I'll start off by saying I'm a big Tai fan and all he "has done". And that's the trouble, as each year passes without a World Championship, a credible challenge or even a GP win sooner or later you have to back up what you say you're going to do with some actions. For me, and it'll never happen in a million years, he needs to be dropped from the series if he doesn't finish top 6, for his own good. You can tell by his demeanour in the pits that he's far too comfortable with himself and seems to have an air of entitlement that he should be there, I don't think he does the GP qualifiers does he? Have a mediocre season (by his standards) get a wildcard, rinse and repeat. Maybe a spell on the outside looking in will be the kick up the @rse he needs?

Why would Poole fans be shouting at a rider who had taken a high speed crash to clear the track under any circumstances? What's wrong with them?
