Aarnio crashed at Swindon last night & had to withdraw from the meeting, haven't seen any further details yet.

I expect my £10 to crash & burn, but he was in fine form Thursday night and Torun used to be his home track.

Lob everything I have on Przedpelski. More, Including any spread stretcher!

Just watched Piraterna v Lejonen. Heat 4 was good. Hampel laughably poor in heat 7. Impressed with Toernblom (if a youngster) until his final ride. Lejonen's engine room didn't show up, expected a closer result. Might be the best performance I've ever seen from Kasprzak. Drabik a bit unlucky, deserved more points.

Diamonds - S Worrall, Ostergaard, L Bjerre, Wethers, Jorgensen, Clegg, Phillips?

Tempted to make the annual Owlerton pilgrimage when Newcastle visit this Sunday. Will Newcastle provide entertaining opposition for the Tigers?

Glad it was a good meeting, unable to make it. With no more holidays planned for either ourselves or the possible dog sitters looking forward to the rest of the season.

Hi Colin, Thank you for your email, It will be Piraterna vs Lejonen that will be broadcasted this week. Best regards, The team at ESS Play

Well, the ride in which Shanes is least likely to score is when the alongside home #5 against the away #'s3&4 and #'s1&2. So give Wallinger those rides. Simples!

Well he will probably only have 3 rides, one of which will be heat 2 against the Somerset reserves. Shanes will surely take his final ride.

So Brummies are... Steve Worrall (G), Agertoft, Garrity, Castagna, Aarnio, Shanes, Wallinger. Know nothing about Wallinger. With lack of dog sitters, olds on South Coast & sprogs in Glasgow as fuzzy four leggers suffering with the temperature it's going to be a last minute decision whether we can make this.

Guessing team rebuild limit is 40 considering the recently redeclared septets are pretty close to that?

Bewley should have gone rather than Harris. Without Woffinden we were not going to win, the experience benefits Harris not an iota, Bewley could have learned lots & realised how far he is from World Championship Level.

So there might have been 10,000 there? Any official attendance.

There were lots of empty seats, what's the stadium capacity?

Sayfutdinov looks unstoppable.

Harsh exclusion on Huckenbeck.

Eh? 2002 team that failed to qualify for the final despite being hosts?

They were probably worried about over watering it as it was raining sporadically.

I do have some sympathy for whoever did the PB track on Wednesday. It was at times like being in a sandstorm, yet there were umbrellas on the terraces.

TBH Brummies only ambition this year is to survive & avoid the Wooden Spoon. May as well keep Agertoft, Castagna & Shanes give them more experience. Get Agertoft an average which means he starts at reserve next year where he shouod be able to do a job. What would remain team building points wise including those three?

Never does at Perry Barr except when he has no choice due to gate position, yet when he is forced to use the outside he goes far quicker.

Where was Smoggy Wednesday? Needed some light-hearted cheer.

When & why did Etheridge morph into Ostergaard? Woolley was reasonable at Perry Barr on Wednesday, certainly didn't look out of place.
