Nothing wrong with my seat Starry!! But I agree the main stand does need a total redevelopment plus some covered terracing on both 1-2 and 3-4 bends.

I thought Sandhu had sold the stadium?! Or is Brandon Estates Ltd a company that he still has interest in?

Yeah, but Sarjeant must have shares in a tapes manufacturing company somewhere!!!

Who's said anything about any rider living in Cornwall?

It said that Hemsley and Buster Chapman were actually talking to each other (about the rearranged KL fixture on 7th October), despite DH no longer being anything officially to do with Leicester Speedway LTD.

Where's Cornwell??

Not forgetting Kyle's short stint as a heat leader when he came back but was still carrying an injury.

Hark!! Is that the sound of a protesting promoter I hear?? No not a single tweet!!!

Thoroughly enjoyed the evening at the stadium last night and just watched the SKY coverage this morning. On the 2 incidents of 'hard riding', imo Holder did lift and went wider than he intended but didn't touch Freddie. Similarly, although from my grandstand seat I thought the Howarth move on Ellis was particularly bad - having watched it on TV I'm not so sure. OK he left Adam little room but didn't touch him and was in front. On the 'angry' Freddie issue, maybe he'd just heard in the pits the possibility of who Poole might use as a guest on Monday??!! ;-) PS. All that watch on TV keep going on about how pro-Poole Nigel Pearson is, but I didn't realise Danny King was so 'anti-Poole'?! Clearly brought in to give a bit of balance!!!

If Poole are good enough to reach the final, there will be a new set of averages in place (from October 3rd) to take account of the last league meetings - in Poole's case the last away win at Kings Lynn!! Not sure what difference it may make to the line-ups, but I'm sure someone will have the up-to-date stats before the BSPA issue them later on - in case any guests might be needed?

I hear the telephone lines between Poole and Cornwall were quite busy late last night!!!

No body seems to know?! Maybe next week's SS will reveal?!

Bjarne missed a meeting at the weekend and was still feeling under the weather this evening. I think he needs a proper week's rest!! ;-)

So as Mr Rising has posted on another thread - full explanation in this week's Star!!

Ooh you are a tease Philip.......!!

Track will be smooth and slick with the possibility of a late shower. With the changes in riding order and Antonio only arriving in the country this afternoon I have a slight feeling of foreboding but I anticipate only a close win for Poole - 49-41 will be the best they can hope for - even with Hans in the pits supporting the boys.. Usual admission prices and gates open 30 minutes earlier at 6pm. Should be a good'un!! May the best team win and meet Belle Vue in the final.

Just a passing thought - if the EL go for Weds/Thursday as the EL race night(s) in future years, what would Wolves do? I don't have any issue with the choice of home/away legs - just interested!

Maybe a Polish rider with their own use of a 'small' track to practice on!!?

Hopefully its Mark Lemon!!!!!! Surely the SCB only get involved if there is a dispute between clubs/riders?! One can only assume there is no dispute and the play-off clubs are simply happy at the prospect of increased attendances!!

It makes good financial sense if it puts more on the attendances!!!

Very reliable as it happens!!!

The latest set of official averages have KK at 7.91. AJ is 8.45 (+5% 8.87 for a home guest). Of the bottom 4 teams only Doyle and NKI have higher averages than AJ.

Kyle declared fit for Wednesday!! :-)

Lets not forget that the riders in the SEC and Pairs have to be good enough in the eyes of the Polish promoters to be invited to take part!! With Woffy part of the Monster Pairs team this year, I'm sure I've read somewhere that BSPA dropped any objection to British 'Stars' taking part as long as the SEC/Pairs dates were announced early enough on the International calendar not to clash with any significant EL fixtures.

So hopefully won't need the fire extinguishers this year then!!?
