Yip,should be a cracker of a meeting, whether Cook can miss the gate and pick off quality riders remains to be seen, certainly makes Championship riders look 2 nd rate.Seems silly to have Lambert and Cook in same meeting when only top 4 makes it through.

Think what you saw last night will be as good as it gets from that Tigers team, Sarjeant might go to reserve ,but Bickley will be in main body.Vissing is as good as he gets ,usually tapers off. Starke can be up and down.(good team though).

Glasgow announced some of the riders tonight,Chris Holder,Tungate,NC Iversen,JacobThrorsell,Cook,R Lambert, Hans Andersen,Pontus Aspegren, Covetti, Berge are the ones that I can remember.Some Countries still to confirm riders.

It definitely backfired,Procter and Howarth were in each other’s way most of the time.Kemp stuffed up Nicol in Ht8 things were still tight up to that point.

Decent meeting some good heats, a lot of effort from both Teams.Disappointing from Kemp after seeing him there last season thought he would have been in the mix for points.

The bottom line is ,these days Top Men riding in UK is a pain in the a#re for them ,so dodgy tracks makes a good case for bailing out.UK tracks are becoming more unsuitable to super fast machinery and more risk to picking up an injury preventing them getting “ big bucks” abroad.

Think fans are reflecting state the sport is in ,as to actually criticising Eastbourne.There are becoming to many reasons to cancel meetings and still expect fans to change their plans to suit Promoters,fans make their plans around fixture list too.Perhaps the need to look at the reason they would lose so much money (all Promotions).

Apologies, might be wrong,Kev might be 3rd in averages on 1st June.

Rolling averages don’t count,Kevin is still 4th in averages IMO

Please don’t make sensible ideas ,the Promoters don’t like that.

Think it shows the perilous state the sport is in today.Sad.

1st Heat decider

Mr Barrie was

I agree Coles would have probably have done the job.Big gamble you never know though might pay off.

The way the sport is run that is probably the case nowadays.Very few travelling fans these days.Even then you can be watching same riders riding for different teams most weeks.

Apologies it seems this match was today.I thought it was a fixture change from a few weeks ago.

Glasgow match was cancelled weeks ago.

Loose change for Tigers stars

The Sedgman gamble doesn’t look like paying off and it is Avery short season waiting for riders to come good nowadays

Can’t believe they are charging £110 to watch a GP.

It’s noticeable that the ‘ lesser’ riders are concentrate on abroad now,GB is just there ‘top up’ money.Best equipment will be there.

Wells is having a poor spell.Not really got going this season Imo

Saw some great meetings there ,tragic really.

He didn’t look in ANY CONTROL at Edinburgh on Friday ,he will always be injury prone the way he rides, feel sorry for his opponents.An accident waiting to happen IMO.

I don't believe that was the case, only my opinion though, there are multiple reasons why attendances have fallen ,failure to attract new fans and keep them is one .IMO
