Shouldn’t Glasgow be only allowed a NDL rider to guest for Nagals seen as he hasn’t rode a meeting for them yet? 

Even if he hadn't ridden, I think it would be a 75% guest not a NL guest. But as others have said, he's already ridden a match for Glasgow.

Sun is baking down here this afternoon. Good luck to the track staff in keeping the moisture in. Should imagine they will be watering all day and throughout the meeting. Currently 27c. In Christchurch.

what do we reckon then, dust by heat six and a blue line around heat 11.

Hasn’t been a blue line for a long, long time. Track has been good, but the heatwave is obviously going to make track prep difficult. Expect to see a saturated track at arrival with plenty of watering during the meeting. Looking forward to tonight. Should be very entertaining.

Glasgow produced an excellent racing surface for the fixture against Plymouth. It was dry all week, the temperature was, amazingly for Glasgow/Scotland, 25C, the track wasn't water logged and there was no dust and Nicolai Klindt loved it. So it can be done! Whatever happens expect a gate and go meeting with Glasgow failing to reach 40 and that's me being optimistic. Thanks to our 2 guests in advance.

With due respect the weather in Glasgow and Poole is not the same at all. We have had 30c for a few days here in Dorset and it’s been sizzling. Today was 27C. Don’t go out without carrying a bottle of water and a hat. Factor 50 sun protection.

Apologies. I checked we actually peaked at 27C, not 25C, on the day of the Plymouth meeting.

Unlikely to matter really. It will be FTG business as usual.

Comfortable home win. Billy Cairns a 4 ride paid maximum .

Glasgow turning up with 2 guests unlikely to prove  too much of a problem .  Thought D Thompson was just back from injury? 

His first match back was 20th June v Plymouth at Glasgow

Anybody would think it’s Poole’s fault that the away Teams can’t gate.Most opposition riders have rode at Poole for years.Obviously they haven’t learned much.

24/7 track access and full time track staff helps massively towards that.

Lawson versus Harris; a clash of the titans. Shame it’s at speedway’s equivalent of a sleeping tablet, Wimborne Road.

Worth noting that as a Glasgow fan, that was an outrageous decision to warn Lawson as well as Harris. Another woeful refereeing decision from that young lady.
