An under performing, low scoring rider is of value to no team, in this case Poole.

For what ever reason Watt was under performing and Ford acted, maybe showing one of the reasons why Poole are winners, other teams seem content to let riders under perform on a weekly bases then act when its to late.

Delighted to see Mr Watt at his whining best, Poole Speedway and Matt Ford have to do whats best for the club, and Watt wasn't scoring so its entirely understandable that Watt has been replaced.

On the evidence of the first few meetings I am delighted to say Berwick seems to be bucking the trend as their crowds look to have held up well, granted they have raced local clubs, in the cases of Glasgow, Newcastle and Edinburgh the crowds have been helped by a decent travelling support, but it looks like the promotion work during pre-season to actually go out and promote has paid off.

Both Robert Lambert and Matej Kus are now confirmed starters for the SGP Qualifier at Kings Lynn.

Giving the directive the Panthers hooligans will lose their speedway.

What chance have we in getting it...none.

All I want is to put my money over the counter, watch fifteen heats of reasonable speedway between two full teams, no guests, no R/R, and on leaving know I have had value for money and looking forward to going back next week. Well I can hope cant I.

As the track has had top marks from the referees in previous weeks it would seem the track well prepared every week. I`m sure Coty Garcia will want to do well on his Berwick return, from his reserve position he could be a key figure for Glasgow tonight, especially when covering for the injured Worrall.

Obviously losing Wethers and Worrall is a blow to both teams, and on the face of things its Glasgow who face the bigger battle to cover for their injured rider but with former Berwick rider Garcia at reserve he could prove a trump card.

Glasgow`s Ritchie Worrall isn't racing for his EL club tonight at Swindon, giving some of his scores round Shielfield Glasgow will be hoping he recovers in time for Saturday.

http://www.bellevueaces.co/newsitem.aspx?id=1682 I`m coming down to the SWC Race off and Final, at this rate it could double up as opening night.

Good grief. At least we know after this post the day can only get better.

Maybe he just liked tractors.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/2655819?day=2 Saturday`s forecast doesn't look to bad at the minute, though it could be cold as it was last weekend, hopefully if it is the club might dispense with a parade and get the tapes up at 7pm as advertised. I feel sorry for the lady with the heat and sponsor boards as it the meetings so far this season she`s had all kinds of weather throwing at her.

So it would appear last nights meeting at Poole was the greatest, in fact it looks like at least one attendee spent more time during the racing posting on here than they did watching the actual meeting.

But there are good people doing that already on the updates site, and paying for the privilege to do so, you have the rest of time to post on tonight's meeting.

Shouldn't we be relying on the updates. http://speedwayupdates.proboards.com/thread/15405/poole-coventry-el-20-30pm

Absolutely, two riders racing, and credit to Barker for firstly getting the bike down so quickly, then going over to help both injured riders by the looks of things.

And look what happened when Berwick went there, if Berwick did it why cant Workington.

Lambert confirmed as one of the starters in the GP Qualifier meeting at Kings Lynn, so the Diamonds will need a guest. No official word yet on Kus, but there are rumours. http://www.speedwaygb.co/news.php?extend.30317.5&utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=twitterfeed

Glasgow have normally been the team with the biggest travelling fans to come to Berwick over the last few years, even the years when things wasn't going so well there was always a good number coming through. We`ve had some cracking meetings in recent times, I think Saturday will be one of those.

This forum will go into melt down should this happen.

Reasonably comfortable home win for me, by 10-12pts, now surely in the way this thread has started there`s nobody out there thinking the same score for the away team, not even our from our friends on the left hand coast.

Maybe getting Alden at three will get the best out of the returning Mellgren, and I like Doolan riding with our reserves.
