Do you care?

Danking still rolling I see - courtesy of Speedway updates poole very leicester.

I believe you are wrong. But the conversion factor from PL to CL etc has not yet been announced (probably not even worked out yet).

Better off with Matty Wethers.

You what? really?

Cookie does a lot of his winning after not making the gate. He is certainly not a tating gart.

Totally agree it hasn't. But Cookie is on a level above anyone that has been at foxholes this season so this is possibly the one match where you might actually get some races with entertainment. And if it doesn't happen then we're all doomed Ah Tell Ye.

Cannae be a real speedway supporter then if you prefer pints to watch the Cookie Monster vs danking and Roo Boy and Sedgy. If they can't tempt you nothing will.

Could some of it been down to the difference in the tracks? haven't been to Newcy for decades but I assume it is tight and maybe not billiard table smooth? So puts more strain on the arms/wrists to get round the bends. BV is wide open spaces and presumably easier to ride with less strain on the arms/wrists? Just my suggestion.

Of course he's going - just playing the gallery. Baldyman the pantomime drama queen!! You had better take the Wagon Wheels too (but keep them in the fridge till you leave!!).

The track is not providing good racing Lewy.

Might be your last opportunity to watch the cookie monster in full flow round foxholes. Don't go and you'll forever regret it.

Yep looks like it could be a great night. Hope the weather and track behave.

Weegies are slow at most things - typing / speedway / etc.

Used to love golf. Even had a week's golfing holiday in Suffolk many years ago and played a couple of rounds in the Ipswich area. Knackered knee put paid to that and other sport. My only pleasure in life now is annoying the Weegies and the Panters and providing occasional Wagon Wheel sustenance to the poor unfortunates at Foxholes having to endure the turgid fare on offer most weeks. Cookie Rules OK!

Don't see Worky getting close but the BIG attraction will obviously the legendary Cookie Monster. (Our skipper during the amazing trophy laden years of 2014-15!!. And still out biggest asset.) Interesting that the top 3 in the British Final were all Monarchs Championship winners!! Gutted that I'm having to miss this one - hope it's a belter. If there isn't good racing between Cookie and the Ippo heat leaders there never will be (unless Cookie is so far ahead by turn 2!!) Get off your backside and fill my seat baldyman!!

Sheffo probably favourites for the a n other spot.

Why could they not catch the Weegies?? Any team can still win it. There are 2 x homes and 2 x aways remember.

You mean like a league championship? Sounds perfect.

Exactly. Sounds like it's only all about winning the title rather than the entertainment. Same situation would apply if there were no play-offs.

Check the record books laddie. And be envious - very envious. Absolutely bizarre. Must be the geography.

Completely agree with that bit. There is a lot of luck of both sorts around and if you get more of the right kind you do well. But against a one man team like Newcy that should have been a 4 pointer.

I see we have signed Theo Pijper as an injury replacement for poor Mark. Very sensible move - R/R would have hurt us away from home. It's subject to BSPA approval obviously and presumably if it's allowed then it will be sent on to Mr. Vatcher to get him to reject it and award full points to everyone else. Theo (and Matty Wethers and Joe Jacobs) have been incredibly unlucky to have been dumped out of this year's teams by the hairbrained regulations they brought in this season. (By the way is James Shanes going to be a permanent 2 point guest for the rest of the season? Complete joke.)

Oooooh touchy. Must be the heat. Or getting humped at home. But it's an open forum I believe and therefore all comments are allowed. If you don't like mine - put me on Ignore. I'll see that as a badge of honour.

But EXACTLY right when I wrote it. But you must be disappointed with the result? Would probably have lost if Super Stevie had been riding.
