Will the Aces meeting be put further back as the City parade has been delayed a further half hour due to torrential rain? Or will it be off altogether?

The next one off will be Belle Vue judging by the torrential downpour for the Man City parade!!!

People only need to read club website updates and/or social platforms - if they have time!

Rogers hasn't been 'let go'!! He is now 'General Manager and Director of Speedway' at Perry Barr.

Buster is away on hols!!

Rogers steps down due to health. Stewart Dickson in as team manager. Rogers stays with club.

Maybe like Mark Phillips he should give Matt Ford a call to ask him to help with any of the riders on Poole's asset list??! or any of Matt's many other speedway contacts. They all need a little help from their friends - occasionally!

Spot on, not only does he understand the club's and fans situation but tells it as it is in public. He and his co-directors need all the support they can muster. As for Kyle's viewpoint I guess any club with a strong top 3 that gets knocked out of the 2 early season competitions will only have League meetings and possible play-offs left. Its not as if he didn't know of the possible number of fixtures when he signed up - its almost identical to last season.

Are attendances still well up after the initial meeting?

Matt still owns the Poole club. He does the pre-season deals from his extensive contacts book - always putting together with Danny at least 3 potential line-ups depending on points limit and cost! - and as he stated in interview on Wednesday, he speaks to Danny every day. (Matt also confirmed he managed to get Artem to Steve Worrall's Testimonial next Wednesday, as Artem's manager 'owed him a favour') Danny leads with most of the club sponsorships/advertising and all the day-to-day, week-to-week stuff, including being on the BSPL Board of Directors with Messrs, Godfrey, Bates and Louis!. Danny is too involved in all the matchday stuff to also take on the Team Manager role when Middlo is away so as Matt explained, he flew in from France to Bournemouth at 4.30pm on Wednesday and was due to catch a flight from Stansted back to France at 6.30am on Thursday!! Now that is a 'flying visit'! Also as Matt explained the Chateau is a lot more hard work than first imagined and although very successful with big American Tour Operators committed, Matt may look for something a 'little easier' in 2 years time or so!!!

I'm sure I saw an announcement on social media last night confirming Tarasenko and Tungate's signings - but it's disappeared now and still nothing on 'official' websites etc?

Have Edinburgh still got a track after this year? Serious question as it might have some impact on what Glasgow do next season - depending on the format and number of teams of course!

Not wishing to rub it in Mike0310 but it was 9, 5-1s!! Respect to all those Plymouth fans who made the trip. Good to hear the big cheer for the Gladiators 1-5 in heat 10 from the Bar Bandits.

It was Richard and Steve that requested it!!!

HERE'S YOUR TEAMS! This time next week..! TICKETS ON SALE NOW bit.ly/poole-speedway-tickets We're just 7️⃣ days away from what is certain to be an epic night! Here's your Poole and Belle Vue line-ups, for one night only! POOLE: Artem Laguta, Kyle Howarth, Steve Worrall, Danny King, Richard Lawson, Ben Cook, Zach Cook BELLE VUE: Matej Zagar, Tom Brennan, Rory Schlein, Charles Wright, Chris Harris, Kyle Newman, Norick Blodorn

Many people are reluctant to try new things especially when risking disappointment if they have loads of other dependable stuff in their lives.

Steve's recent illness, bike issues and focus on his testimonial along with Richard's injury have certainly taken the edge off both riders but the League meetings have only just started and nothing is won til Sept/Oct! (Except for KO Cup and BSN Series finals) COYP

So after 44-46 this evening what are the score predictions for Wenesday?

To be fair I nicked it from Centregreen Nigel last week. We've been looking for a successor to the 'Turbo Twins'!

Last 2 seasons Poole won everything with 3 strong heat leaders. This season it's strength in depth with every rider chipping in. 2 finals already. Championship to come!!

The Poole 'masterchefs' whacking in their 2nd 5-1.

Well SSL84 should know!

Zagar's been announced for Steve Worrall's Testimonial on 14th at Poole. Head-to-head with Artem?!!

With the meeting not being televised, it'll be interesting to know the size of the crowd with those 'big names' in attendance?! #pullingpower

All clubs are given the opportunity to agree or otherwise a draft fixture list so as to avoid known clashes when riders may be missing abroad or lack of stadium availabilitty etc! This season Promoters decided to get the KO Cup and BSN Series fixtures over with by end June/mid July (subject to rain-offs) so that the later months could solely concentrate on League fixtures and play-offs.
