He certainly didn't make good use of Brennan earlier today!

Can't see my other prediction being right this evening lol!

Can't they use the Plymouth rider Dan Gilkes as a guest then?

If that is the rule it's rediculous!

Should Peterborough have given Gilkes a chance here, instead of using a guest?

But if the best to replace Iversen turns out to be signing a 5 pointer, how would dropping another (5.5-6.5) rider make them competitive, you've pointed out there's only 5 pointers to replace them?

Belle Vue 45 - 45 Wolves then Wolves 48 - 42 Belle Vue

Should use the Elite League's "fast track" format, reserves didn't meet heat leaders in that!

Newcastle keep doing worse than I expect, which is hard when you don't rate them at all!

Well Scunthorpe beat Leicester by more than I predicted, but I was one of only a few who had them down to win. I expect Sarjeant to score the most of all the reserves to give back up to Masters & Pickering.

Has BWD received any punishment for apparently trying to knock Roynon off at Redcar?

I'll predict a 45-45 draw

No harm in having Hume & Rowe share the fixtures, based on who's on the best form!

What's the alternative though? Give BWD a new average after ONE league match? Or expect Newcastle to pick a weak guest?

Fair comments, also fans need to consider that Newcastle have raced two very strong home sides. I don't expect them to win anywhere, but should score more at other tracks.

Totally agree with you, also if Newcastle had gone for Sedgmen instead of Congreave, that would've put Wright at reserve & the team looks much more competitive!

Berwick 51-39 Edinburgh

If Oxford wanted to use their top rider (Nicholls) to replace a reserve (Stoneman) the first available time would've been in heat 12, by which time Oxford would've been 24 points behind & people would question "why wait till you've lost to use a tac sub"?

Always feels good to correctly predict a score! Was hard to see Newcastle doing any better!

Should be a rule, where you have to put two riders in (assuming they're not injured). That being said, why would you need a rule "forcing" a club into trying their best to score points / entertain the public - they should already be doing that!

So is my comment of "Berwick don't go well at Armadale normally" really such an out of date and ill informed statement lol

Nielsen has often performed well in the Prem for Poole & Sheffield, but always gets injured before attaining a proper average. If he keeps that form, bargain for Sheffield on 3.00!

On a neutral track I'd agree, but Scunthorpe have a team of home track experts don't they?

I'll go for Glasgow 67-23 Newcastle

Edinburgh's top 2 will do enough to win it for Edinburgh, Berwick getting a point.
