Wow, your a bundle of laughs, it’s a sport not life or death

A major surprise if Scunny get within 10 points of Poole, hope I’m wrong.

It is Charles Wright, probably makes Poole stronger as he rides the EWR really well and using R/R for Toft I fear the worst.

Well done the Pirates, in a different class, Scunny lacking a true no 1 and the sooner Ablitt is dropped the better.

What a poor meeting, gate and go bore fest, no wonder speedway is going down the pan

Another embarrassing performance on the road for Scunny, how they could do with a number 1 rider, (come back Douglas please ), Poole reserves better than Scunny heat leaders, 2nd leg just an anti-climax.

Being unable now to get to the track thought I would purchase the Scunthorpe live stream which I watched at my leisure after 11pm, the coverage was excellent, you could see all the action round the track especially the Wright/Allen clashes, total respect to both riders for racing that close, obviously the starting gate problems were a drawback and using David Blunkett as a referee was a mistake but all in all terrific coverage and £12 well spent, can’t wait for next week.

Maynard’s wine gums

Wow, how poor are Scunny, I said yesterday after the Berwick hammering that Scunny are a team of good second strings with occasionally rising to heat leader, I’ll change that to Scunny are a team of poor second strings, it’s early days yet but the door is ajar already for Toft and Howarth, especially Howarth who I don’t rate anyway, Scunny have no number one again and boy does it show

Unfortunately Scorpions have that old problem of not having a No1 now that Douglas has gone, basically it is a team of good second strings who occasionally ride like heat leaders + Kyle Howarth wasn't a very good signing

It’s not that rare, 2 out of 3 Premiership matches today were won by the away team

Oh Dear, how did Paul Starke suddenly appear in Scunny’s plans, well passed his best

Hopefully not, it would be a backward step as I think both Jorgensen and Toft from their initial performances have flattered to deceive, neither has made the progress that should have made them riding for their country or are reliable from one week to another.

Probably too short notice but ironically it’s a beautiful sunny day here and forecast looks good for the rest of the day, from tomorrow looks crap.

What a fantastic meeting, the racing was brilliant besides the one sided scoring, Flint after 2 duff rides was then in the thick of the action and Etheridge and Schlein tried hard, impressed with Luke Harrison but it seemed like a season too far for Hans Andersen, All the Scorpions rode well even though Drew Kemp had a bit of bad luck

At least the England Women’s team reached the World Cup final unlike the Scottish women who were probably in the hills chasing haggis lol.

And far better than Mountain and Ablitt who were rubbish,

This was a meeting I was expecting Scunthorpe to lose but in the end they shouldn’t have, can’t complain about Steve Boxall ,but the performances by Mountain and Ablitt were pathetic, only recording a point against a Poole rider when Newman fell, and which muppet chose ht 15 bottler Jake Allen for the final heat, should have been Lambert or a half fit Toft would have done a better job

Boxall can’t do any worse than Drew Kemp in the last home meeting

Yeah, even though Ipswich won Mr Hawkins had his slapped arse face on again

Not quite 40 but nevertheless an excellent meeting, having Richard Lawson in place of Morris in the Brummies team gave them more strength and if Troy Batchelor had been any good scores would have been a lot closer, very impressed with Ablitt, gets better every week but will Drew Kemp ever have any good luck.

Just bring back the old system of the 2000’s if you didn’t finish in the top two in the elimination heat you were out + there were more places

Unfortunately 2 of the best riders in the world are missing in Sayfutinov and Laguta who would definitely give Bart a run for his money

Trying to come across as hard for the tv cameras but just looks a miserable tw4t

Obviously should have been a guest in for MPT especially as only 4 points were got from rider replacement, in the end though getting a point from this match with only 5 riders was an achievement, ps was Jake Allen riding one of the kids 250cc bikes all night
