That's exactly what I said at the time, I think his antics at start lane swayed the referee decision as he was definitely clipped by King going into first bend.

Nermark not available, wouldn't be able to guest for Cook anyway as had o be PL riders. Think you may be seeing King soon.

I've been told Harris is riding. Don't expect decent guest for Zagar, Belle Vue did have a decent one booked but he having to ride in Poland now, so really struggling now as there is also meeting in Denmark plus Lakeside v Leicester & of course the GP

Our away form been poor, not helped by the fact that in the 9 away meetings we had we only had our full 1-7 in couple of them. Partly our fault though by signing Cook as heatleader but doubling up.

He wasn't giving the finger he was scratching his ass http://twitter.com/rbecking/status/476237984543801344/photo/1 Watt gave the finger at end of heat 1

Yep. but apart from Nicholls that isn't going to score much

Not at home he hasn't! 4 home meetings so for scored 9+2, 5+1, 13+2, 11+2 So which premier league guest is going to score more then that to strengthen us bearing in mind the likes of King, Wells, Morris, Barker are unavailable?

Not too bad for Worrall but no PL rider is a decent guest for what Cook scores round Belle Vue

No Cook and Worrall are doubling up riders so can only have doubling up/premier guests

Been told, don't know how official this is, that because they have signed in to the meeting today they have to be there for restaging.

Also forgot Worrall missing for Belle Vue too as at Abensberg

Well this is going to be bit of a farce now on Sky with GP qualifier at Berwick rearranged. No Cook for Belle Vue, no Bridger & Lawson for Lakeside.

6,000 is standard capacity, original plans were temporary extra grandstands can be added round bends and back straight to make capacity 15,000 for big events

It's off

Still looking doubtful but not as bad as it was, rain seems to be breaking up, 2.5mm now rather then 10mm 6. Max Clegg 7. Joe Jacobs

WTF 2007 got to do with anything?

So if it was that dangerous why did heat 1 start then, it's drizzled throughout the meeting.

It rained from heat 1 so if visibility was the problem why did the meeting start, when Zagar was interviewed complaining about visibility that was heat 6, why did it get past that point and at heat 10 when it was agreed to continue it didn't get any worst 2 heat later. Poor crowd, about 600?

Zmarzlik at number 1??? The kid has potential but he is being dropped in the deep end big time with this format, can only see him struggling.

Can't see this one being on, weather looks terrible for tomorrow with 10mm rain for Birmingham

Not watched it on sky yet, from being at the track if the meeting was going to be called off it should have been called off at heat 10, it had been drizzling all meeting from heat 1 so visibility wasn't the issue. The track had got bit wetter but was still raceable as MPT showed, the only faller had been Cook & Johnson earlier in the meeting, riders were forced to ride in much worst conditions by 'sky' in the Belle Vue v Poole meeting last year. Once they made the decision to carry on at heat 10 it should have gone to heat 15 as it wasn't any worst 2 heats later.

On paper I would say Belle Vue could win this, but unfortunatly our away form has been poor this year with 1-2 riders having bad nights each time. Will be happy to get a point.

I would have thought Wright should be at 6 as he is replacement for Nielsen who was originally at 6.
