I'm struggling to see why Poole should have any facility if it's a pre arranged fixture and a rider is choosing to be elsewhere.

With regards facilities, I've seen Steve W saying he's sitting out next 28 days, would that maybe be because that's how long the facility would be given for?

All the best Connor. Get yourself right, sports dangerous enough without that hanging over you. Doing the right thing

I see Tom's replied to someone on twitter saying Poland takes priority due to FIM rules. What's FIM got to do with league clashes. Dangerous precedent to set saying it's ok for riders to miss prearranged fixtures for Poland

Honestly not sure. I know he's ridden U24 on Poland so must be a 5, he may have ridden in 3rd tier so does that mean a 6 like ilicic? I've no idea any more. The anti tarasenko rule has me more confused than scooby doo

Haven't been able to watch SON ivacic looks like done ok? Still like the young Norwegian pollestad, looks a talent. Beating Becker no mean feat and seems to be able to gate pretty consistently from what updates saying.

100% on this. In the past speedway was my no.1 priority on Friday nights, missed more meetings last 2 seasons than have in the previous 15. And it's all down to not having the constant weekly fix, if I'm finding something else to do with my Friday nights you can bet the casual supporter most definitely has. Sport has to have a long hard think about where it's going because champ in particular has been run into the crapper last 3/4 years. Also having a TV advert running saying speedway every Friday night when there's no match for 3 weeks seems bit daft too!!

Maybe it's a killeen type deal? Both pijpers offered reserve spots next season (assuming stene is 16 by then).

I'm no expert on polish speedway but looking through the updates I'm seeing one meeting in the 3rd tier scoring 5 points. In the same meeting bellego scored 13 and would also have come in on a 6. I don't see this as strengthening and as paulco says has longer term implications for the club..

Ivacic could be anything. Can't see him enjoying Plymouth or armadale which I believe are 2 of our remaining away ties? Know nothing about garrad, ace been struggling a little this year but still think bit harsh. Numbers game I suppose. 36... Wouldn't Perry have been a better bet? Seems an odd choice unless it's only 2 pointer that was interested

Might be harsh but surely a no brainer bring in a 5 pointer? Will jack maintain a 5 in main body? Can't see it myself so if now above the limit thats the change for me. Much improved as jack has been and harsh it may sound

Bomber doing ok, Leon looking better every week. Ace win a raise... clutching at straws here. No idea his commitments but love to see pollestad or similar given a few meeting end of season. This year's gone lets look to next

Pumped worse than rishi sunak, 40 points be something of a miracle

But on the flip side if wasn't a trappers paradise would sedgy have got 14? Always frustrating to see your no.1 score so poorly but never just as easy as saying if he'd scored 10 you'd have won 50-40. But if picko and Ben cook can't pass on a track you know it's bad

Surely should be the delightfully named slater lightcap if going after any young American, if nothing else for the wonderful name! In all seriousness I see broc is in the American team for the SON, if he's managed to get his shoulder in better shape be a better shout than manzares imo

Bomber been good all year, brother Steve has definitely got his act together lately and Leon is doing better. I'm still not convinced by him around ashfield but mist definitely improving. We might scrape into play offs but will be quickly dispatched if we do

Woohoo something resembling a pass!! Far and away worst meeting of the season so far. Feels like November!!

Didn't it come up last year, Oxford organised a meeting same day as Ndl riders and Atkins boughen and maybe mulford were going to get 14 day bans if rode for Oxford? Think in end both might've been rained off

Only saw the kid once live and didn't get impression gating was his strong suit. Hopefully gets a good go as looked a prospect on Sunday. 1st time in champ sure were some nerves involved too

Yeah pretty sure Danny Bird's ban hasn't started because he didn't pay the fine

Yeah think been rule for a while now if don't start season in a league can only go back to it on converted average. Assume worked same with cookie when signed for Oxford used his champ converted rather than his previous seasons prem version.

No surprise he's been given a chance if been riding as today all year

Foord really impressed me today, made some good passing moves. Outscored a lot of guys with more experience of the track. If we needed to bring in a 2 pointer at any point he'd get my vote

I've absolutely no issue that we are rotten this season. Watched many a good meeting at armadale as attended regularly since 1997 but last night was dull as I can remember.

Worrall either needs to improve dramatically or go. If no like for like then double change to strengthen middle order. Has he scored double figures all season? Providing no backup to bomber. Seasons probably gone now tbf hope we look at some new exciting signings let get new averages and accustomed to league
