Its mostly been a week of low cloud, mist and drizzly rain for Berwick, happily the forecast between now and Saturday is an improving one with any drizzle moving away by early Saturday morning. After that Saturday will be a dry day with some brightness.

Prague in May seems good for me.

I hope Berwick would do as much as possible to help their riders gain any advantage going, our track should be as your riders want it every week. Bugger this level playing field nonsense, this is play-off speedway where winning is everything.

Get your excuses in early I like it. Of course the track team at Armadale would never lower themselves to such naughtiness.

Reports on Speedway365 suggest that Howarth will be out for two weeks but hopes to be back to play some part in the play-offs for both Coventry and Workington but giving the extent of his injury that might be a tad optimistic.

I don't think for one minute that Dudek was deliberately trying to cheat, and is guilty of nothing more than being careless or not getting the correct advice when taking his supplement drink. However as I`ve posted before Dudek, as a professional sportsman, is solely responsible for what goes inside his body. Therefore I think todays ban is the correct decision.

Groin, he has returned to Denmark and has been operated on. In some pain, he has been told to rest for two weeks.

Giving the two groups, I`d love to know how the selections went for Edinburgh and Somerset. IMO Edinburgh will get through without to much bother, where as I wouldn't like to pick a winner from the Ipswich, Somerset and Scunthorpe group.

Then if Ward is going down the wonky testing kit route, surely it would be a non-starter, as the others would show faulty results to.

So its Edinburgh who will be getting first pick.

His dismal performance continues in the big derby match in Poland tonight.

What on earth is going on with last years World No2.

scott nicholls ‏@scottnicholls78 52m So then, 11 dodgy silencers taken from 1 meeting in Poland today!! Up to the old tricks again. Need to do checks all the time! This being one of them.

This ref is going to need a disguise to get out of there, big mistake to exclude Balinski there.

Darcy Ward #4⃣3⃣ ‏@D_Dublu_racing 1h Watching polish league. Nicki Pedersen your unbelievable. wipe people out with no care. Obviously I have no way of knowing if this tweet was alcohol fuelled.

Actually I thought Pedersen was just in front, though on this occasion I thought he was rightly excluded.

I agree Pedersen was rightly excluded there, I think he tried but failed to find some solace in his team manager but was given short shrift.

I hope Me Rissing doesn't see Ht1 in the Leszno v Tarnow meeting.

Here come the Nicki haters.

To be honest I wouldn't heed to much of what Pedersen's fellow competitors are saying during a GP, especially if you consider what they post on Twitter about him. You pays your money and takes your choice, both Nicholls & Tatum were of the opinion that Pedersen was harshly excluded, as I do.

I would guess phone calls have already been made to sort out fixtures, but I suppose officially the choices will take place after todays meetings are over.

Giving some of his decisions last night I think he was sight to.

Scunthorpe`s fortunes may depend on the results of Ashley Birks x-rays following his accident at Rye House last night, though they will get the guest facility should he miss any meetings.
