Since you've fallen out with Uncle Len, will you be at Shielfield on Saturday with your (much) better half then? It might be chilly, so wear a Bandits scarf!

So would that be a hint that you'd like to take over running the website, or what? I would say that yes, Bandits will indeed advertise the tenner admission to a Trophy Final and yes the management will be quoted in the media. What would you suggest instead - that they keep the meeting a secret?

Well keep on making your jokes. I think this is a bit more important. Or is losing a well-run club funny?

So --- in the wettest year for over a century, how do you suggest the matter could have been better resolved after last night's rain-off?

For God's sake, Monarchs are losing up to £2,000 a week when they ran, plus eight rain-offs! How much do you think the fee for THJ was? If indeed it has all been paid. These deals are often on the never-never.

Or French Or British It is the casuaL use of the word 'English' when people actually mean 'British' which is making Alex Salmond's ambition so much easier.

But are they at Sheffield? And when -- Redcar can only stage Final on Thursday 25th, Berwick on Saturday 27th.

Does this mean Rye are through to PCT Final?

Yes, have Jacobsen back!. Please

Can't help thinking that the lovely aljack has gone walkabout these days. Is that thanks to Witches possibly lifting three major trophies after all --- or has it thankfully been banned?

Leaving Redcar or Berwick -- the northern winner will be revealed on Sunday after Glasgow's meeting -- high and dry with no-one to race in their final? Don't think so. Ipswich or Rye House will have one more northern trip, one more trophy final at home.

Before Liam Carr (Tweedmouth) it would have been Greg Blair.(Jedburgh)

Moto-X yes, Manchester no. Definately Scottish. Pretty sure it is Falkirk or Grangemouth.

Very local. I think from Falkirk?

Edinburgh put local lad Tommy Fenwick in their team. Glasgow have local lad James McBain in their 1-7. Berwick have Liam Carr as No 8, use him when they can. Yet folk are criticising this, presumably wanting these team positions filled by Ukrainians, Slovakians or English riders from 400 miles away?

In Scotland?

They are usually pretty prompt. Parade at ten to seven, racing at seven.

Don't knock him (if indeed you were) as Facu will be representing the Bandits in the final two rounds of the World U-21 Final next month, racing against guys like Jepsen Jensen, etc.

He's not the only one missing out in UK this weekend. Ben Barker and Baby Bjerre are giving the PLRC a bodyswerve. They would all have had contracts signed for Pardubice long before the British meetings were set up, I suppose. In the case of Kus, if he had been going to ride as well as he did as a guest for Berwick, I think that will strengthen the Bears!

No, weather is clearing from south during morning. Heavy overnight, lighter and then dry before noon. It's on!

Club website has the Complin story -- and quite a bit more!

Of course it doesn't. None of the play-offs do.

Six, maybe seven, loan fees? Including a 36-year-old Russian who would miss more weekends than Ray Milland? Get real!

I was reminded this morning by a good friend that thirty years ago, Bruce Penhall and Kenny Carter had an incident which virtually won and lost a world title, and that people are still arguing about that decision. No doubt last night's semi-final will be getting dragged up, debated and argued about in 2042. But what matters is that this week's Speedway Star will report that Chris Holder is World Champion, just as Bruce Penhall was in 1982.
