I am not overly panicking about this (or any other) result at the moment. Many riders will be on new equipment and it might take a little time to get used to it and get the set-up correct. We (the Diamonds) got 41 at Sheffield the night before and nobody beefed about that. It's early days. Let's see how good the Rebels are at Brough on Sunday, but, the same can be said of them.

..... And, perhaps, the fact they ran a meeting on Monday as well, may have put people off (if they attended Monday, they might not have been able to afford last night as well)?

No idea! I can only say "what I've been told"!!!

7.00 asessed as far as I know, as the second away PL fixture brings in his 'proper' average, is what I've been told!

I don't think the League Cup counts towards the averages, otherwise Anton Rosen would get a proper average after last night and Redcar next Thursday, rather than after Peterborough and Berwick in the PL.

........ It appears to have been removed from the website........ ...... I wonder why????

Just PM'd you. (Before you Edited your post!!!).

The question is quite a simple one. Do you ride your own machine, or do you use one of the Training School bikes?

Tell you what. Ring the phone number on the press release and ask.

By the same token, should there not be a 'minimum' points limit? Scunthorpe's team total is 23.33, compared to, say, Devon, who's team total is 37.68. That's one heck of a difference. Having said that, I applaud Scunthorpe in what they are trying to do. The CL/NL has always had the problem of teams having a different agenda to others and, no doubt, that will continue.

I think the date may give you the answer

First signing Henning Loof?

In what respect? Before the meeting started Roy kept fans updated to what was happening and did the toss of the coin and during the breaks he interviewed riders from both sides.

1st leg????? It's a Group!!!!!

I didn't recognise him without his hat on!

Apart from Plymouth releasing Mark Lemon earlier this year....

Nick Morris has signed for Somerset, replacing Ty Proctor, who has been "released."

Replacing Ty Proctor who has been "released".

Good point.. well made!

Do you include Ben Barker and Craig Cook in that remark?

And how many times have we seen a tractor 'breakdown' so that repairs can be made to a bike? Some promoters are aware if meetings are 'dragging on,' but some appear to be oblivious to it (my memories of how long a Stoke meeting would last when they were in the PL spring instantly to mind! I don't know if this is still the case now they are NL). We need all promoters to be singing from the same Hymn sheet, as it were, maybe a fine if a meeting runs longer than a specified time (like the slow over rate in cricket), would cut down on over long meetings? Barring major incidents, I can't see why a meeting can't last less than 2 hours.

I've seen one or two of our four-legged friends at Brough, so it doesn't appear a problem. Not sure about away tracks though, so it might be best to contact the track you intend visiting beforehand to make sure.

I intend to go to this one, but hoping the weather forecast is going to improve for Saturday. Above team line-up could be wrong, as Robbo had No.3 and Lewi No.4 Race-jackets on at P&P.

If it's a reserve swap, you have no idea until it's announced. Although they may (the majority) look good, I'm for individual kevlars (mainly for the above reason, but other reasons too). Just my preference.
