I can't see Lambert having the same set-up as in the KO Cup last year!!

So not an option then?!

With upto 7.79 to play with, the new May averages suggest Schlein, Sedgman, Howarth, Batchelor as the best 7+ point options?

Questions: Will Plymouth have a guest at 1 or go with r/r? (Assuming Covatti not yet fit) Will Poole have a guest at 3 or go with r/r? (Tom Brennan missing on Euro duty) Thoughts on the above and likely score...........?

Sam needs to learn that he can't keep to the outside line all the time. As exciting as it was to see it live, he needed to just cutback to the inside on the final lap imo.

Anyone into conspiracy theories might think the stadium people don't want speedway to continue?! stadium electrics. Hmmmm!? As for the Ref's decision to continue with no red lights, all the red flag staff were fully briefed as to the temporary arrangements using the 'rider exclusion lights'.

Neither set the world alight did they, scoring 3 and 0 respectively.

Paco and Tobias should have some decent races - they are good mates!

Tobias scored a decent 11 points in Denmark today so should be on it on Wednesday. 53-37 I reckon

Good win by the 6-man Glads.

You would think using one of their own assets to guest would be a positive?!

You need to learn how to spell. You talk bull$#!t!!

A strong performance by the Glads. Not sure that using a 2nd string to guest at 1 was the best idea but then again using r/r at Scunthorpe didn't exactly work either!

On current form it shouldn't be too long before Zach is a Prem heat leader!

...or double down?!

More likely the opposite!!

Damaged his foot on Thursday apparently! (At least that was the reason given!)

I think any potential issue is with the newly awaited BCP Council 'Local Plan' which is currently in the 'public consultation' stage! The plan takes each council ward-by-ward and shows the Poole stadium site within the Poole Town Centre ward as a 'potential area for development'. This is no different to previous plans under the old Poole Council, and has no current planning applications attached to the site, despite part of the site (railway sidings and Stadium lorry park area) previously being suggested for housing, whilst retaining the stadium itself.. Generally the Council has said it does not want to lose any sports/leisure facilities, (it is currently working with Poole Town FC to source a new facility!) but nevertheless has targets for new houses/accommodation to be met over the next 15 years or so. Personally, I wouldn't see the Stadium site as a 'priority' area for development by the Council as there are several other sites identified across the whole B'mth/Christchurch/Poole area which I would see of higher priority. BUT a planning application could be submitted and fully funded by any third party partner ('cos the Council don't have the money!). It would be at that time that any protests and objections from speedway fans and anyone else against such developments would become necessary. The housing development market isn't that buoyant at the moment so I guess its WATCH THIS SPACE for the time being..............! In any case, it would likely be several years for any similar circumstances to come about, so as long as the rental of the stadium for speedway is kept at a reasonable level then I see Poole Speedway continuing for a good while yet. (Just my personal opinion!)

He has a house?????!!!!

Poole v Plymouth rearranged for Weds May 1st! (ps. Also rumoured that Oxford v Poole rearranged for Weds 8th May - not confirmed as yet, but being mentioned at Oxford on Thurs!!)

So Anders Rowe confirmed as a guest at no.1 for Plymouth on Wednesday. Very brave!!!

They are all still available on 'catch-up'!!!

If he's in for several meetings then he should be on his own average ( like Scotty covering for Pawlicki) and therefore won't be at 1. If he's just a guest on Wednesday then he'll assume Covattis average at 1.

Possibly because they team they've announced may not be the 1-7 that's declared?!

That's so last year!!!
