Apologies. The averages have been updated again for October 1st. I had'nt seen those when I posted yesterday - too much going on with the play-offs!!

Should be dry but cold wind tonight!! As Rayc says above its sunny at the moment and forecast to continue this afternoon and evening. Might be the odd shower. Not been down to the track today but someone has posted on FB that track covers have been utilised?! Anyway nice to see Ippo's sponsor offering a cash incentive if they bring home silverware - I reckon he's on a fairly safe bet there. Meanwhile the Poole side are all having their carpets cleaned!!

Looks a possibility depending what they decide and how many teams there are.

No it wasn't! In the latest official GSA's (Issue 24 - 18/9/19)both BV and KL have more than one 8 point rider, as do Swindon. In fact in the last KL programme v Poole, both Lambert and Cook are listed as 8 pointers.

So it seems as though there will be a 'top' league of x clubs next season. With the likes of Terry Russell wanting to keep Jason Doyle in an 8 team league it begs the question about how many 8+ point riders will be allowed in the team building and to what team points limit? Swindon, Belle Vue and Kings Lynn may well have some serious decisions to make with their Number 1s.

Might be a bit wet overnight tonight and into tomorrow morning but the rest of Thursday is set fine, sunny, dry and windy.

No. Not sure.

According to yesterday's podcast Buster Chapman ISN'T the owner of Ipswich!!

Best wishes to Terry Russell for a successful and speedy recovery following his surgery. He wants to keep JD in the Robins team for next year as he is 'box-office' (quite right too!)and hopes the AGM doesn't diminish the standard yet again as its not necessary. He's also hopeful of an 8-team Premiership in 2020.

It sounds as thought the sale/purchase process has been somewhat drawn out. But wasn't it suggested before the season started that Louis had a 'buy back' clause after the first season in the proposed agreement?! I'm sure I read that somewhere.

Natalie Quirk!!!

Not again Gavan?! Yeah we get it. 'If Poole lose they will have choked'! How many times have you repeated this. Please give it a rest and come up with something new.

It's been hacking it down since around half three

yes.

Its only right that Lawson rides for Eastbourne as the rearranged meeting at Ipswich is on a SGBP 'off-night'! The rules are quite clear......!

Wow! Who knew..............??

I know Ipswich have problems with stadium availability on Mondays so How about Thurs (Poole) and Saturday (Ipswich) which still gives the Witches the second leg? Lawson might be missing for Ippo? Not sure what European commitments there might be?

Poole v Kings Lynn also to be arranged after the playoffs. Has to be run or the home club gets a big fine.

I keep checking the various weather forecasts as we get closer to Monday - and they're still all say we're gonna get a deluge Monday afternoon/evening!! - and thats even after heavy rain on Sunday too. I know everyone in authority is probably focussed on Cardiff today but an early decision and an announcement about a rearrangement date would go down well with fans.

It was in the context of guaranteeing 2 bumper crowds for the local rivals Swindon and Poole, rather than risking either or both going out in the semis. This added to comments by a number of senior sources at the other clubs.

Looking at several of the various weather forecasts for Monday, I think we'll be very lucky to get this on. Forecasts vary from light rain to heavy rain and thunderstorm conditions from mid afternoon through the evening!!! Not sure what plan B might be?

Nobody said Poole would pick Swindon. What was said was if Swindon finished top then they would pick Poole!!

Well done to the Robins. Isn't it a great feeling winning on a track with one or two bumps on it?!

Good luck to both teams and no injuries. Hope its a great attendance
