Harris was riding with suspected broken ribs whilst guesting for King's Lynn. Most riders would have pulled out but he didn't want to let them down

SHEFFIELD have been dealt a blow ahead of Sunday's trip to Newcastle with Jason Garrity ruled out due to a hand injury. Garrity did the damage as he crashed in heat nine of their clash at Somerset on Friday and will now miss the Window Centre Tigers' clash in Tyneside. The all-action No.5, who has an excellent record around the tricky Brough Park circuit, also missed their Knockout Cup tie with the Diamonds last month with an arm injury.

Charles Wright will miss Thur & Fri due to 9 day concussion rule.

Wright has concussion after crashing Thursday night so is out 9 days. That's great news about Stefan

Is it true that Iversen doesn't have any meeting tonight. He just didn't want to race before a GP? This meeting was always going to be a big away win against a depleted King's Lynn team. Poole have been very lucky to be against a Lynn team without a facility for their no 1 both meetings, like Lakeside will against us.

Did he have a box of fireworks and champagne under his arms 😉

Exactly. Riders will tell you what they think you want to hear. Although Garrity announced at the Cov v Wolves meeting with Adams there that he had never said that. He said he liked the Wolves track but didn't ever say he wanted to ride for them. Wolves announcement says They only just spoke to him and he signed but how many people saw the tweet about the speedway star a few weeks ago with regards to Tai being in talks with a team about returning to British Speedway.

King's Lynn have been bending the rules using guests for their declared no 6 all season. Lambert is only a squad member so if Carl is available they should have used him or replaced him in the team. Instead they have been using better riders like Howarth.

Then it must be true right 😂He's hardly going to say he spoke to Belle Vue to ask them about signing a few weeks ago but now has to settle for 2nd best is he.

I do agree that maybe his average should have been reassessed as he hasn't ridden here for 2 years and has improved a lot in that time. However I don't think Poole can say anything about averages. Still don't get how King & Buzz had same average yet only 1 was on the HL list, esp when Buzz had been a heatleader when in the uk whilst King was also a 2nd string and Buzz had been in the World Cup. Exactly. Poole fans are the last that can moan about changing teams later in a season

A Manchester play off team. Good on Lemon though for sticking with the 7 riders who have got his team this far

Poole could finish top yet if they can improve their away form (or keep racing against depleted teams with no facilities) 😂😂😂

Poole are always replacing riders so I'm not sure what the problem is? What's wrong with Wolves strengthening their team before the play off and replacing a rider who isn't scoring after being out with injury? Your comments about if Belle Vue V Wolves final then will support Aces as they have stuck with 1-7 all season made me laugh. Will you not support Poole either then as You have replaced Watt with Bjarne this year as he wasn't scoring. You replaced Holder with Hancock. Yes he was injured but JK isn't scoring after his return from injury. You brought in GP star THJ on a very low average to replace Robert Miskowiak You replaced Adrian with Kaspazak What's the difference? Poole might strengthen as well yet. I'm not sure why your worried anyway. Judging by the way you speak about your current team they should walk the play offs. You have out and out racers Bjarne & Hans, Next big things Kurtz & Newman, GP holder, Ellis who you think would have been good enough even in the 4 man SWC team. Only weakness is Buzz who isn't apparently good enough to be on the heatleader list 😉

Yes Poole have been poor away this year but do you honestly think your team will lose to a side granted no facility for one of the best number 1s in the league meaning a 6pt PL rider. Plus no Kai and Morley at reserve? If you can't see this is a easy 4pts then it's you who has no faith in your team. Talk about trolling

He has great scored in the PL as well. He was one of your only 2 good riders on Monday so I don't think he's currently your biggest problem. Morris is your weak link as he's not good enough to be a heat leader. Same with Josh. They are not in the same league as other PO heatleaders in Holder, Hans, Tai, Lindgren, Zagar, Cook and AJ Doyle has no back up as due to his high average, the rest of the riders signed were more 2nd strings. This team always looked very average on paper but due to Tungate & Justin having spells at reserve it made them look better for a few weeks.

No. I think he's referring to a conversation Tai had with another teams promoter first

The remaining meetings for the teams in the play off race. BELLE VUE (H) Swindon, King's Lynn, Coventry, Leicester, Poole +2 (A) Poole (Points available = 22) POOLE (H) Leicester, Belle Vue, King's Lynn (A) king's Lynn (No facility NKI), Leicester, Swindon, Wolves, Belle Vue +2 (Points available = 33) WOLVES (H) Lakeside, Swindon, King's Lynn, Poole, Coventry (date TBC) (A) King's Lynn (Points available = 19) LAKESIDE (H) Coventry (no facility for KK), Swindon, King's Lynn (A) Coventry (no facility for KK), Wolves, King's Lynn (Points available = 21) SWINDON (H) Poole, Leicester? (A) King's Lynn, Wolves, Belle Vue, Lakeside (Points available = 22) I think Swindon could be the team to miss out. Looking at those fixtures, apart from King's Lynn away I wouldn't be confident of them picking up points in the others. Tough for them against mainly play off rivals. A lot of the teams still have to race each other which will have a big say in who finishes top and who finishes 5th

Have to feel for KL fans. We have the same to come with Kaspazak against Lakeside. Poole should easily pick up 4pts tonight. We were average and yet we went to King's Lynn and got 4pts against a full strength side so Poole should be looking to win with ease against a depleted side with no facility at No 1. This realistically helps rule King's Lynn out of the play off push

Great news for Wolves and should really help them in the play offs. Shame Tai is only willing to ride for them though when he has nothing else to do. Would he have come back if they weren't already in the Play offs? if rumours are true that have been flying round for weeks, credit to the manager of Tai's first choice PO team for telling him he was sticking with the line up he already had. 👍🏻

Love the fact British speedway is now good enough for Tai now his other teams haven't made the play offs. I wonder if he would be returning if Wolves if they weren't in a play off place 😉

With JK now sacked at Wolves and it looking like Tai could be replacing him, I wouldn't rule them out now either

Kylmakorpi @WolvesSpeedway making changes in the team and unfortunately I'm not going to end the season with the team. I take it this means Tai is willing to come now he knows Wolves on in the play offs.

Very bad luck for King's Lynn. No Iversen and his replacement riding through pain barrier. No S Lambert and now no Howarth and now using weak reserves to replace Kai. Poole should easily hit 60 against an extremely depleted King's Lynn. That said, I think Poole would have beat a full strength Lynn.

Those above teams look even worse than PL. very watered down. No thanks. Would rather have the teams we have now but something needs to be changed with the draft and the format. Should set a point limit for all 7 riders like before but make it that each team is to have a min of 2 Brits in the 7.

We had meetings Fri & Sat do the crowd was bound to be a lot less with it being on tv. Stadium very open so people dotted around. Crowds are very good when not televised, which is good seeing we have struggled this season. Didn't Ford recently show concern for your fallen crowds in the paper? Not good when you have a strong team, always win and still numbers are down.
