Does anyone know what the Tigers riding order is today?

He didn't pull out of an away meeting at King's Lynn, he did miss a home meeting against Stoke though. 😉The King's Lynn match was a KO cup match.

Edinburgh would have to drop one of the top 4 to get Tabaka in and there's no way that would make any sense.

Why do people always go on about BSPA bias on stuff like this, when any action on an incident like this would surely come from the SCB?

As an Edinburgh fan I didn't like what Sam did tonight, seemed an over reaction to a bit of hard but fair riding, Sams not shy on dishing it out at times, last Sunday at Newcastle a prime example, also hard but fair imo, but if you can't take it don't dish it out. If the ref had thrown Sam out the meeting I would've had no complaints, as for a ban I don't think there is any need for that.

Riss has had a couple of race wins in 3 of the 5 meetings he's done at Armadale so far.

What a ridiculous comment. 🙈

Why should the whole team have to suffer from one rider, that's like saying why should a football team suffer when one player gets sent off. Don't talk nonsense, it's quite possible he was under instructions to do this as well (I really hope not though) but he did it to late anyway, should have tried it on the third and fourth bend on the first lap.

Ellis would surely be first choice if Deek is still out, I hope he's back though.

I think he can be a very solid 2nd string even 3rd heat leader, Stevie would be very close to my rider of the season for Edinburgh and if he was a 6.50 to 7.00 I'd have him back no worries, but over 8.00 I genuinely worry about him getting a team place next year in the PL, that's one of the flaws of the rolling averages.

Maybe not but I can't be bothered with the lowering his average posts, it's the guys job less points means less money, as I said earlier though he does look like being lumbered with a high average for 2015.

Yeah nothing to do with it being somewhere around his 130th meeting of the season and its possibly catching up with him. With the way the averages work though he does have an over inflated average and it would be tragic if that prevents him getting a PL team next season.

You were saying? 😜

Do what? Unless you're thinking about the group coming down to race points already, 3 points in the bag is fine with me at this stage.

Everyone can take a ride for Stevie so I wouldn't say it weakens Edinburgh that much if at all.

Shame your team got put out the Knockout cup in the early rounds. 😉 I'm sure in a perfect world it would be great to have last heat deciders every week, but in speedway having a strong team will generally mean winning home matches by big margins. As has been said though the score line doesn't always necessarily reflect the quality of the meeting. Tonight wasn't the greatest though but that was the poorest team that's visited this season by a long way.

How the hell would you know if he's had any offers from Poland or Sweden?

Erm does that make sense?

Or the unbeaten run might have been higher than the current 24

He had six matches where he took 6 rides, he's done a few heat 15s which may be in those as well, so I don't think he was used as much as some people think.

Wow what a post that stinks of nothing but bitterness and jealousy, and what's the crap about to many checks at big meetings, 4th in last years plrc, 4th in the British final, unbeaten at the pairs and five out of six wins at the fours, need I say more?

As an Edinburgh fan I actually don't disagree with that, it's a bad side to him that he shows at times.

Ellis actually didn't score anything, he was last in heat 2 with Hawkins third.

Not sure what will happen if we potentially get Sheffield in the league cup semi and they also get past Berwick in the ko cup and the rearranged fixture at Ipswich, could cause a bit of a headache with Swindon racing on Thursdays.

I think you lose priority when it comes to rescheduled fixtures.
