Congrats to all concerned,but it does make you wonder why this effort to get the meeting on is not replicated sometimes in the middle of the season.Everybody knew it was last chance salon for both Teams,and the attitude was different from riders(or were they told to get on with it).The Posponed Berwick match earlier in the season the sun was out 1/2 hour after it was called off.Double standard from Promotions and Riders IMO .Well done to the Bandits.

You should know by now that when the weather is dodgy at the Dale you won't get an update.

Surely you went the whole Hog £3 for programme,that will be a collectors item in years to come

He is still receiving therapy from Tuesday,this will have set him back

Your are correct Hancock had the nerve to say in SS that he was not surprised Woffy got excluded as he was ready with 2 SECONDS TO SPARE.The riders need to get a grip most of them are there with a minute to go then start playing silly games.

If you look at Traffic Scotland,Live cameras it's chucking it down at M8 Whitburn,but this won't be called off till start time for obvious reasons.(it might have blown over by then as it's fairly windy up this way)

Edinburgh are 5 points behind Glasgow with 1match each to ride.

Edinburgh could do with rain Off's at other meetings,would question running outstanding fixtures after cut -off if they don't extend date again.All it does is clog up fixtures for the successful clubs.This happens most seasons as the most successful Clubs that season are usually still in most Competitions.

That's the trouble nowadays poor track prep,either by doctoring or not bothering their ar#e .Results over entertainment still expect fans to turn up.Ask Loius the reason he will tell you the riders want it that way no doubt.

Well done to the Tigers, Cook has transformed them.

Think Barker is a Peterborough assett? Maybe that's why he is riding for them.

Even though Ipswich ran Tigers close away last week, have sneaky that Tigers will be well up for tonight and fancy them to win.Should be good match if the track is decent.

You would like to think so!.Riders can only blame themselves IMO.

In Gb at tracks that do not have clocks, the Ref often "flashes" the green light to tell the riders to move forward when they are not obeying the start Marshall ,which is quite a lot .But with a clock to look at the riders should not leave it to the last few seconds,it is noticeable when they are late to the gate after a problem they move right in and ready to go sharpish.

Only my observation but thought Worrell wasn't enjoy riding with Josh .Josh was giving it 100% and to be honest Worrell was in his way afew times.Worrell is obviously great at home but to be honest has he not be a let down away.Expected a lot more from him.

It was an entertaining match, felt Wells was a let down for whatever reason.Pickering is starting to look very good but still can't gate.!

At least he won't have Rory moaning in his ear hole this time.

Think this is on a knife edge,Ipswich are very hit or miss these days,threw it away at Ashfield last week so who knows what will happen this week.

Edinburgh, because Carlisle is East of Edinburgh

Thought Riss put in a lot of effort,Wells going so slow cost him a couple of points in Ht 13 IMO .

Very good match some great racing,Cook was awesome Harris was the best I have seen him this season and the guest Jordon Stewart showed that he is a talent .For Monarchs Riss,Pickering and Nicol were entertaining.Think Glasgow might get the points they need on the road to qualify for Play offs if in same mood as tonight.Track was superb IMO.

You only have to look The Holder v Cook situation to see how hard it is to choose Wildcard,Holder is having a poor GP season and doesn't look like getting aTop8 spot,Cook is having a poor GP season and hardly scores any decent points but he finished 4 th in Challenge so could be " next in line" for wild card.Personaly dont think any deserve a pick ,better to give a younger talent a chance who ever that be.Who ever is picked will get some critisisum .

Fans moaning don't stop meetings,I can't understand why you think it would only go 10 heats if it continued.Still we move on.

There was some Berwick riders moaning too.Still we should stuff them this week if your predictions were right
