Oh bugg..

Still don't know if I'll be forced to miss speedway next week? Probably won't!

Well just got to hope Norway pull their finger out then.

Seriously who's going to watch a football match on TV, when you could go to speedway: to see, hear, smell, feel the shale on your face, and enjoy the banter. No contest in my mind!

Might simply be sleep deprivation, with one of my lads I didn't get a decent night's sleep for the first six months. Kids are total life changers as all parents know.

A little harsh on a technicality me thinks! But have to say I'm not really fussed either way.

OK so a few teams are now about half way through the regular season, the league table only tells you so much. So here's a League table based on the teams average points per meeting. Poole. 2.33 Edinburgh. 1.57 Glasgow. 1.50 Scunthorpe. 1.45 Berwick. 1.20 Plymouth. 1.00 Redcar. 0.87 Workington. 0.66 Oxford. 0.36 Redcar are starting to show their class, What's happening with Plymouth? Poole clearly can be beaten.

Well that went well! Good luck to Berwick in the final. From Poole's point of view the stars just weren't aligned, and the Bandits were better. No complaints from me.

A hard to call, Wednesday things didn't go Poole's way, but they are a class team with enough experienced riders to deal with the pressure. So providing they get their fair share of luck, I predict a place in the final for the Pirates.

Jordan Jenkins not the end of the world, in fact as suggested on another thread would make a potential swap for Bowes?!*-' Just hope Bomber is on an onit offit cycle cos then he'll be as great as he was on Wednesday.

Assuming you mean Jenkins for Bowes? Yeah I'd go for that

The Bomber scores 13+2 points for the Aces tonight, well why the duck didn't he pull his figure out last night?

I just know there's going to be somebody out there who can explain Cooper's exclusion from heat 14. As usual I was on the apex of 1&2, so had a good view, what I saw was both riders coming through the turns Cooper leading but was looking a little squirrely, Smith then caught him up through turn 2 causing Cooper to fall. It looked clear cut to me Yellow light. Overall a frustrating watch last night, Bomber is inconsistent had a good night on Monday so guess he due a poor one.

Harris going great for Kings Lynn, only lost one point to an opponent, 16 +1 from 6 rides, just need to do it again on Wednesday. Rushen, Zac and Cairns also all had a great night, Lawson seems to have had a tougher time of it. In fact now I've thought about it, a message to those who are forever claiming that the Premiership is some kind of elite league. Check out this evenings results and please explain your argument?!*:??

Cairns comes out on top euro U19s, I'm a fan of Will and believe he'll prove ultimately to be better than Rushen, but granted in the short term Cooper appears to edge it. Control over flair I'm thinking.
