Points limit will have a lot to do with team building for Garry and Mark you'd imagine? It simply can't get any lower surely? We've seen this season how tricky its been for a number of clubs to replace injured riders because of the points limit and commitments in other leagues etc

Is someone able to merge this topic with the one @lbw has created please? Saves having two threads

Would make sense to have squeezed it in before the deadline of that competition. That does ring a bell I must say

I can’t actually find any record of when this fixture was due to take place so I’m starting to doubt myself about if this is a rearranged fixture or not haha

I’m trying to find out when the original staging was meant to be but can’t seem to find it at the moment. It’s been a wet night in the city but it has now started to brighten up, a lot of time until tapes up

Yes I believe so

Another fair effort from the team last night. Does make you think with how the Thompson’s have improved all year and with Alfie and Jacob pitching in with points here and there and Barker now returning to a bit of form, if the team had a settled number one would it have been different. fingers crossed 2025 is less stressful for Garry and Mark

I'd be surprised if the Gladiators went R/R at No.1. Surely, given his exploits earlier in the season, Troy Batchelor is the first person Garry has spoken too about guesting tomorrow evening??

Might as well create a thread for the middle of the Gladiator's triple header this weekend. The Pirates are back in town tomorrow night looking to defend their 20 point aggregate lead.

A lot of people interested in this one obviously... Not sure of any team news as yet either..

Gladiators begin their busy bank holiday weekend with a trip north to Redcar on friday evening. Unsure as to what the situation is guest/rider replacement at No.1 but will be a tough ask for the Gladiators you'd imagine with a Bears side featuring Wright, King and Edwards.

It was another good meeting at the Colosseum on Saturday night. Track was in great shape and another decent crowd in. Great to see some Tigers fans down in Devon as well. Some good racing on track, Harris obliterating the track record was a treat in heat 1. Miracle both Jordan Jenkins and Joe Thompson walked away from that crash under their own steam. Best wishes to Joe and hopefully Jordan is okay as well. Fair play to Cami Brown and the Glasgow promotion for getting the fixture on with their guest choices. Both Jenkins and Jason Edwards gave everything they had for the Tigers cause. Wish them all the best for the rest of the season and look forward to their return to Devon in 2025

Whilst I accept Barker got a jump on Harris in Heat 11, people need to look at the video again and see the initial movement at the tapes comes from Jack Smith

That’s not great. Shame for Cami and the Tigers promotion. Could be tricky trying to put together a team. I guess this where it’s beneficial to build such a big lead after the first fixture

Morning all, Another fixture tomorrow at the Colosseum. Chris Harris and Glasgow in town. Always a bigger crowd when Harris is in action due to a number of Cornish supporters joining us. Should be a good meeting but interesting to see what teams are announced
