Peter Kildemand and Danny King latest riders announced for this opening meeting. 4 more to go : Matej Zagar; Max Fricke; Scott Nicholls; Richie Worrall; Craig Cook; Chris Harris; Niels-Kristian Iversen; Danny King; Peter Kildemand; Nicki Pedersen; Chris Holder; Tai Woffinden; TBC; TBC; TBC; TBC

Difference could be successful team last couple of seasons compared to non-successful this season.

Zagar's is half Darcy Ward, half Leigh Adams

It is a bonus point (just for pay) a rider receives if he finishes behind his team mate to prevent them from racing each other for more money

Cook and Zagar show how to pass!

£1,320 raised for Darcy

With rain forecast all evening the track prep was spot on, we lucky rain didnt come till after 9.00 as it was forecast at 8.00. Wasn't one line either there was several heats with passing but it was all BV riders doing the passing when didn't gate, we can't help it that Belle Vue were gating well most of the time and the Swindon riders had no fight at all.

Only saw 2 Swindon fans, pretty poor for a playoff semi final.

Announced 10 min delay in pouring rain, no way Heat 15 will happen

Different shale been used, wonder if Ronnie Russell ordered it!

Nothing new, Billy Hamill had datalogger when he rode for Belle Vue in 1997, had a laptop in the pits.

Poole have chosen Coventry in playoffs so it's Belle Vue v Swindon

Were you saying that last year when Woffinden was riding in GP's then saying he was too tired for Wolves?

WOLVERHAMPTON: Freddie Lindgren, Jacob Thorssell, Ricky Wells, Tobiasz Musielak, Peter Karlsson, Max Clegg/Ashley Morris, Josh Bates. BELLE VUE: Chris Harris, Max Fricke, Craig Cook, Scott Nicholls, Josh Grajczonek, Steve Worrall, Stefan Nielsen. LEICESTER: Jason Doyle, Sam Masters, Grzegorz Walasek, Piotr Swiderski, Szymon Wozniak, Simon Lambert, Adam Ellis. Clegg for Belle Vue meeting, Morris for Leicester meeting

We are not boosted, I think it really unbalances the team, Grajczonek average dropped last month too yet moves up to heatleader where he will struggle, Grajczonek will drop more points then Nicholls can gain. If he not back am sure it will be Harris.

The balance goes back to Belle Vue

Is there a good reason why the Leicester meeting couldn't be run the week after? A meeting between bottom 2 teams doesn't have to be done before cut off.

They will be lucky if they get a handful of away fans then

Been rearranged for next Monday now double header with Leicester. Hope they not expecting all the BV fans (and Leicester fans) who travelled halfway yesterday to pay more now next week.

To get it in before the cut off, the Leicester meeting can be run afterwards, unless you going to run it on an alternative night in the next 10 days? Ever heard of adrenaline?

Would guess this will have to be run next Monday instead of the Leicester meeting?

Chris Harris guests for Zagar now

Wouldn't want them to anyway, plus the choice is poor Milik, Bjerre, Batchelor, Zengota
