With King's Lynn visiting 3 times this season and this being the deadest of dead rubbers, I'll give it a swerve and use my £25 to see Chris Harris later in the season. But I'll be following closely on Speedway Updates, especially Lewis Kerr who can take this as a job interview!

Thanks for buying the stream. The view of those there in real time was that he went out wide for the extra grip and got blocked by Pijper. Nothing wrong with that tactic by the way but Bowes clearly had the speed and Pijper was 'extra determined' not to be overtaken after his heat 2 d/q.

Interesting reading Simon Lamberts post on social media he said ‘changes’ insinuating there will probably be more than one change

If Lynn don’t win this then the season might as well be over now (I know it’s a dead rubber KO cup match but the signs wouldn’t look very good). 42-48. Northampton Foxes 1. Lidsey - 10 (6) 2. Batchelor - 5 (4) 3. Z Cook - 9 (5) 4. Kerr - 4 (4) 5. Klindt - 8 (4) 6. Thomson - 5 (5) 7. Harrison - 1 (3) Total - 42 King’s Lynn Stars 1. Fricke - 12 (5) 2. Castagna - 3 (4) 3. Harris - 10 (5) 4. B Cook - 9 (4) 5. Kvech - 7 (4) 6. Rushen - 4 (4) 7. Scott - 3 (4) Total - 48

I don't think Scunthorpe could ever be accused of a lack of loyalty towards Sumon Lambert, too much if anything. FWIW I don't think Poole have done anything wrong here, you can't drop a rider scoring as well as Newman has been.

Funny how it’s only Poole that show zero loyalty…..No mention of Scunthorpes zero loyalty to Simon Lambert…but of course he didn’t ride for Poole!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As a Pirates supporter, I was expecting so much more from the Bears. The reserves were nowhere compared to the BSN final last year at Wimborne Road. 2-5 didn't turn up. Maybe Friday will be different?! But Klint was a great signing, untouchable tonight.

Left field shout but I was quite impressed by Ukrainian Stanislav Melnichuk who rode in the WC the other week might be worth a go. Glasgow keep signing these ringers year after year, More clubs should try it, he certainly couldn't be any worse then Palm Toft. Vuolas, Kemp or Stevie Wonder he'd be just as useful

Kemp or Blodorn

Bowes lifted slightly going into bend 1 before losing his line and drifting towards the fence on turn 2. In real time it looked like Pijper stuffed him in the fence but the replay shows that wasn't the case. Pijper took a wide line out of turn 2 but Bowes had already drifted wider of his own accord due to lifting.

Will Cairns was fantastic tonight, shame about the engine, I suppose that scuppered any chance he had of doing a fully deserved heat 15.

..as opposed to the usual Ipswich suspect talking his usual b0!!○<ks.

Bowes was so upset, in tears in the pits especially after being blocked against the pit fence by Pijper in his 2nd ride and then engine troubles in his last. Good to see him putting g some extra laps in after the meeting. Incidentally Klindt clocked the fastest time of the season so far. All times were fast compared to previous weeks. Also well worthy of a mention and Sponsors Rider of the Night, Will Cairns - 11 points as well as a heat 14 blown engine on his lap of honour .

He was taken out by someone else. hardly his fault.

I don’t consider myself a full time supporter because I have family and work and live over an hour from Foxhall so I pick and choose my meetings …. We have rode at home 3 times … I went to the first meeting of the season simply because it’s the first meeting and we all miss our speedway …. The track was shocking .. we don’t have the best track but it’s been better last couple of seasons …. I gave the second match a miss as it was Northampton and the third match I didn’t go to as it was King’s Lynn again …. However the people I sit with moaned the track was awful both times…..I will go to Belle Vue at home next week to see Bewley and Kurtz Would just be nice if for once the usual Poole suspects actually spoke the truth

Yes I agree I think he will improve, he lacks confidence at the moment but I am sure he will get better.

By the end of the season Bowes will be up to speed and barring injuries Poole will be there at the sharp end of the play offs … whatever shape they are I cannot remember .

He did ok, a little improvement, riding at 2 suited him, still looks uneasy and lacking confidence on the bike but Redcar were so poor it maybe made him look better.

Well yes, Klint scoring half Redcars points tells you everything about how the rest of the Bears performed. Bowes should be given more credit, he is putting the effort in, but he's moves aren't coming off. I've seen him try a wide line around 1-2 a few times, but it ends up with the bike in knots. I think he needs help with the bike set up and or ridding style.

On the face of it looks like Poole had prepped the track to be gate and go and it worked because apart from NK the Bears struggled to come out of turn 2 in front, it was all over after that. I know it has been discussed many times on here but Poole don't have to cover their paying customers in dust and prep a track that provides very little in the way of entertainment when they build such strong teams.

Ah yes the regional draw that wasn't regional.🤣
