Would happily have Klindt in the team, being a gater he goes well every where, and has stated he does not want to drop a league. My only issue, is he looks a bit like Erik with beard and shaved head... might confuse the two

Tend to agree - its in the best interests of the sport for teams to agree in a professional manner..... I also think the cut off date for matches (and hence fines) MUST be BEFORE semi-finals of the competition (whether league or supporters cup).

I had planned to go, but my 120 mile round trip with the dodgy weather forecast put me off. Shame, as I as looking forward to once last speedway fix before winter sets in. Hopefully they'll do something similar again next season with better weather, both teams looked like a nice mix of riders, and I was looking forward to see Rowe and Kemp round the AFA

I really don't get all these race night arguments. If it's midweek which ever day it is, you gain some you lose some due to work commitments. Friday and Saturday you are more likely to get kids along so potential for bigger crowd depending on what other local attractions are on at same time, but for the top league that's a no go due to all the international meetings. So for PL fixed nights on Monday/Thursday to avoid other leagues is the way to go. Much prefer that to guests and r/r. Supporters will get used to it.

Looking forward to that one - much closer to me than Kings Lynn. Not sure where they'll ride though......local council and nimby's normally put blockers on any hope of that one in my life time

Riss had an off at kings lynn, can't remember which match, but after that was never quite as quick, put it down to not having another bike that was as quick. MPT and Riss should be shoe ins for me as they did hold their own on the road. Problems were 2 misfiring heat leaders and tj, lewi and what other reserve we could muster bring pants on the road

No GP wild card for Lambert, hopefully that means he'll do the UK next season, and that'll be good news for the Stars. A year out of GP's will help him rediscover his form of 2018 and push for GP's again in 2021.....

Still miss the days of Pride of the East to bring the curtain down on the current season. Could be done early October, throw in a few riders we want to look at for 2020, maybe change format to that of SGP to keep riders interest up through the meeting. Kind of fizzled out too early this year and a long winter ahead

Ty Proctor, interesting choice!

Need Lewis to be on it for definite to help cover r/r and a weak porsing. We be pleasantly surprised if we beat the Robins

Hope it's not Thursday. Swindon home Monday and heading off to Cardiff Friday. Thursday as well for a meaningless fixture, forget it.

Agree with most of this. Think Lewis started slow, unsurprising after his injuries last season, but has been making good progress lately, so I'd have him in. Regarding fixed race nights, almost worked as a lot less clashes, the tweak it needs is to split matches over Mon and Thurs, 2 each night at most to leave options for suitable guests for injuries

It's probably because King's Lynn isn't spelt p-o-o-l-e

King's Lynn to win at Wolves next week..... that'll put a different spin on things

Have faith, surely we've got to win somewhere away this season... PLEASE!

So, Ippo lose again, if swindon beat them in their final home match then by my reckoning that makes it interesting for us stars. Win at Wolves and our final two home matches, puts us in with a sniff of playoffs :-)

Acid test for the Stars, it's one thing banging in big scores at home, another matter to carry that form away. I'd like to think we can, but am ready to be disappointed. BV still have to go back to a much weakened Peterborough, so even a loss tomorrow is not the end of the world as they have another good chance to pick up points on the road and put a spanner in our dreams of making playoffs...

Meetings pace was almost perfect last night, how it should be. It was helped by not a single restart due to movement at start. Still don't understand why there is such a long gap between heats 14 and 15.

Tero rode well, his two points didn't really do him justice, 2 falls on a very grippy track early doors not helping. For me, a better option than our current injured no 7

How did Lambert get all those rides, he never looked like scoring after Garrity unintentionally but the wotsits up him in his first ride. Kerr should have taken two of them. Simon is the only rider who can rlead into turn one but be last by turn two! Couldn't work out Harris either, in his first ride he appeared to be all over Tungate with out making the pass, looked like he didn't want too, then in his second ride seemed to be inviting Nicholls through. Any why no MPT in heat 15, surely he deserved it over at least Harris... Just as well we weren't against a better team. Belle Vue may not be quite so easy on Thursday, particularly if Frike rides

Always a possibility, they were certainly punching above their weight early season and are looking very fragile now

Stars need to win all their remaining matches, home and away, to stand any sort of chance. Unfortunately Swidon and BV both have an away match at Peterborough, do on current form both will pick up away wins there which will make it doubly difficult for us

I thought that too, but forecast is better tomorrow. But with the micro climate at saddlebow road, might as well call it now and rearrange.... lol

Regularly happens at many meetings by many riders and not just Eastbourne and looks thoroughly unprofessional.....

Peterborough will need guests as well I presume, Stars Select v Panthers Select. On paper, with 3 potentially injured riders, we one our 'easier' matches, hope it doesn't turn out to be a banana skin.
