A 3 man semi, I believe this happened 2-3 years ago when Jonas Davidsson made the semi's but was unfit to take part.

I know it's three from that list. I just don't want a lot of them into the series I don't mind Zagar and Vaculik to some extent but I don't think a lot of these will add much value!

Do we have to have three from that list?

Best GP this series!

You'd make a fine PI ImpartialOne

Finally!!! Great decision

Stripping all this seasons points is quite frankly ludicrous. Why stop this year? Perhaps we should take away all his career points and then we can sign him on a 3 point average next year. Fair play and all

Custer, with the greatest respect I don't know how you can keep harping on about how foolish you think Rosco's speech was when you weren't in attendance nor have you heard a recording (apologies if you have). I thought it was a great speech and admire his honesty, as did most in attendance judging by the applause.

I wonder what the Coventry fans who flew to Rome will think of this!!!!

Couldn't agree more! Are you free tomorrow night?

I love how the BSPA still have the article bigging Kennett's maximum up. Smooth!

I don't know whether it can be appealed but if he has tampered with it (which looks very likely) then I'd sack him for bringing the clubs name into disrepute. I'll wait to hear our side. Always drama with us

Why did Emil look over to gate 1 from gate 3?

Come on Bomber and Emil

This meeting offered so much but delivered so little. It was an average meeting at best. Darcy was the best rider on show by far and would have had a maximum if it weren't for the random raking that took place to make the outside very patchy, they seemed to rake loose dirt into random places. Vaculik and MJJ both failed to live up to the hype and Vaculik almost went into the backstraight unassisted - this almost happened in practice as well. Andersson punched above his weight in this meeting but rode very well on the day. Piotr Pawlicki is absolutely brilliant for a 16 year old and will go on to big things if he continues his progress. A couple of poor refereeing decisions to firstly not exclude Dudek when he fell after a clean pass and then to award the race - can you award FIM races? Then to allow Andersson back into the re-run of the race off was poor as he just messed the first bend up. Przemyslaw Pawlicki could have been excluded for the crash in heat 6 as I felt he moved right coming from gate 1.

Should be a fantastic meeting! I'm guessing Haines and Worrall are replacing Auty (injury) and Tarasenko's (visa). Brits look the weakest riders imo. Come on Team Pawlicki! Regarding the above posts lets not turn this into a thread about any teams.

Matt Ford builds the team, the Glaziers don't build Man Utd's team. Didn't Middlo say he hadn't heard of Andersson before he signed for Poole. I don't know if that was tongue in cheek, it didn't sound it.

And for that you should credit Matt Ford.

It's Great Britain. Only an idiot would argue otherwise. If all the riders were born in London we wouldn't call it London would we?

He has now made Stevebrum and Steve Shovlar look stupid, what a legend! Thursday meeting should be a belter!

Glad Sayfutdinov has resolved his differences with the federation.

Depends how pedantic you wish to be over the interpretation of packed out. It was packed out in my opinion, it didn't look like a poultry farm but it was definitely pretty full.

Good point, I would still prefer to see Darcy

Bomber's race with Gollob was brilliant, the atmosphere was great in the stadium after that win - only temporary mind you! I'm a big Bomber fan so it was worth the admission just to see that! I'm looking forward to the race offs. I think we have a chance, it's going to be bloody tough but I think we're capable of pulling it off.

Would have preferred Ward as a wild card as Zagar has been in the series before.
