Agree. With Luddi I think we would have won, the deciding factor for me would have been the form of Robin A, who has had a good score after a disappointing start this season. With Luddi out the Bandits look set for a fine win. Regardless of the score, I am hoping for a safe and entertaining meeting from two teams with good racers.

Easy. Different team who can pick or leave out riders if they aren't performing or the Swedish team being more cooperative.

Correction, Ludvig has NOT chosen to be in Sweden. As you have correctly posted "the PL fixture takes precedence over a Swedish fixture except for a rearranged match" Ludvig, if he wanted to ride for the Diamonds tomorrow, would not be allowed to ride even if he preferred to.

I honestly don't believe anybody walks away from speedway just because of the TR or tac sub rule.

Quite agree. Too many knockers and not enough supporters. All mouth and no contribution.

You're not trying to curry favour with anybody, are you ?

Hope you are successful Colin. Have you tried posting the same on the Poole Speedway website/forum.

This year the Supporters club are organising regular events for supporters and their friends, usually one per month. We are trying various events which are a little different but always with a Speedway connection. Our next event is Friday 24th May, 2013 at the Corner House, Heaton at 7.00pm for a 7.30 start. It is a DVD night and throughout the night we will be showing all the heats from this years away Diamonds fixtures including Glasgow, Redcar, the Edinburgh British Semi, and hopefully Plymouth. A nostalgia one as well, but mainly this years team meetings. It will be a full nights speedway and a good night with decent company, including some riders I hope. Entrance is just £1 for NSSC members and £2 for non members, who can sign up on the night if they want. And, yes, there will be a raffle and Domino cards. NSSC- supporting the Air Fence Fund See ya there.

Kerr, no broken bones in wrist, but sore and swollen. No news on Luddi's availability.

Dream on. Newcastle could be missing Robson, Tully, Kerr and Luddi. Be a patched up side, propped up with guests, and I expect a decent Berwick win. Still coming for the fish and chips.

Aye, but he only rode at home once a month.

The Sun is out. Great.

No rain now at Whitley Bay, rain stopped about 4.15pm.

It might be. Someone said on here that Dilger rode last weekend on the continent, and wondered why he did not ride on Thursday at home. Another poster hinted that Davey was seeing out his 28 day contract so at least we know one of them should be with us tonight.

Richie Worrall was a 'Lakeside' rider last year, even though he was only a D/U for them but a full team member of the Diamonds.

He rode steady, smooth and without much effort at our place a few weeks ago, when we allowed him to practice after our meeting. He had both his parents in the pits watching him on track..

Tried again and after a load of the three spots, eventually it loaded. Great to see it again.

Doesn't load for me Paul.

Redcar is a better team now than the one we have met in earlier season meetings. Carl is struggling but Kus has woken up, and Davey replaces Dilger. Still don't reckon it will make them strong enough to beat us, but a better meeting will result tomorrow. Looking forward to the Bears hoards to swell our ranks. Forecast is good with no rain, and with our superb track, how can anybody miss it.

Quite agree. Early calloffs are very welcome for travelling fans and away teams, so you would think it would be applauded. Instead some on here always seem to be '2 minutes from the track no sign of rain'. Wish they played golf with me, and I wouldn't have so many non starts or walkins due to rain.

You have just enriched it by replying screm.

I think it happened more in the then Conference League.

Does make you wonder whether his UK entry visa is valid.

As if there isn't enough competitions to create more havoc with the fixtures of the British Elite League. I applaud their attempts to give EL fans more continuity, despite the FIM, and the desperate involvement by John Davis poking his nose in it for his self interest.

At our televised meeting a couple of years ago, SKY issued the race times before the proper ones were telephoned to the announcer. No advance hint what would happen the night, SKY just did it.
