Would the ref have improved ???

Doc Martin is good tonight.....

crap advert for speedway, with what should be one of the meetings of the season....

I think Tom Bacon will return ?

Very poor advert for a play off speedway meeting …. One of the Thompson boys looks good to me, but I don't want to say which one. Pleased that Clegg beat Mr Ego Ellis in heat 15. Danyon still can't stay on for 4 laps in all his rides...….disappointing because he has bags of potential. Jack Smith seems to have stalled re: progress? Certainly don't miss NL racing!

I'm going to this meeting just to see the Thompson twins actually race.....I've seen them do a million demonstration laps at PB

Best thing about this years BGP was finding 'Elvis Juice' on draught in one of the Wetherspoons ! The meeting itself is way over-rated imo….. Cardiff is ALL about the 'atmosphere/buid-up' outside the stadium..... I've been to a GP in Warsaw and the 'atmosphere' in the stadium is far better, but absolutely 'ZERO' atmosphere in the City (pre-meeting) I wont be going to Cardiff next year and will choose a GP abroad instead? I've heard Torun is the best ? Does anyone else beg to differ.....or 'suggest' an alternative?

ditto!

Lingdren for me

I totally see/understand your point.....but Garrity light up Perry Barr every time he took to the track! He just needs man managing.....Peter Adams style! He could make the National team if he wanted it?! He reminds me a bit like David Norris (ex Eastbourne)

Would love to see Danny Ayres at Brum.....I know he gets on well with the owners. I think Tom Bacon will be back ? Arnio definitely finished the season with a lot of credit, so I'd take him back too. As for team building? I suggest signing a No.1 first and then build a team around him....which is totally the opposite to what we did last year ( but there was legitimate reasons for that...) Ellis/Morris/Shanes/Bacon/Ayres/Arnio/Thomsen I'd love Garrity back but I expect other clubs to be chasing him?

Wouldn't want to re-sign Newman …. definite starters will be Paco/Shanes/Thomsen and Agertoft imo…. I think Morris/Ellis and Arnio would most likely be the other three? If my prediction is correct....then we would be definite favourites for the 'wooden spoon' again! Hope I'm wrong......I probably wouldn't want Thomsen/Agertoft/Paco (the latter faded badly this season and very limited) lacks a bit of bottle to make the step up? imo…..

May be Tom Bacon?

P.S Doolan only got 2nd place in the T/S race (Heat 6) because Tobias Thomsen's engine seized on the 3rd lap when Brummies were racing away to a 5-1 Heat advantage!

The meeting in question was well below championship standard and hardly anyone was trying ? (Lambert was getting married 3 days later?) May be Gappmaier was putting himself in the shop window and took advantage of the situation? I have to say, I certainly expected far more from him last night though …...he was asleep at the starts and didn't threaten when behind?

He might be the better rider for the cubs......I love Danyon, but he's nowhere near as 'good' as Perks imo…...

Add Ashley Morris to that mix ?

Agreed! Although it was a fairly close meeting, we never looked like losing imo…...'Tero' the last heat hero once again! Berwick manager cocked up imo…...using Doolan as a TS in Heat 6 against Ellis was very naïve ? probably cost them in the end!? He wasn't even their best rider, yet they put him in against our best rider ? Moving forward....I think we will have learnt a lot this season and we will also benefit (preparation wise) from knowing what league we will be competing in(2020), much earlier than we did last season!? Have to give the 'Masons' a massive round of applause for the way they've carried us forward as a club...…..they've achieved 'positivity' with one hand tied behind their back imo…...losing someone as influential as Lee Kilby as Commercial Main Man can't have helped either!

Correct.....plus Arran Butcher : )

having said that....Medically and Physically are 2 different 'conditions' !?

Nothing been mentioned ? might just have to refer to speedway updates ?

I can't imagine he'll be 100% after a back injury? I think it's a gamble especially with it being his first meeting back? (no pun intended) Having said that.....he seems the type to give it everything regardless......if he is fit, I think we'll win this one 48-42!?

Barker would've fitted perfectly......Berwick are one step ahead on this one....I'll take a guess at Ellis Perks will being our guest (if needed?)

I don't think Garrity will be riding, so a suitable guest may be the deciding factor?

Don't they get on then ?
