I agree - Harris needs to lower his average before the end of the season or he will find his options very limited. I certainly wouldn’t risk signing him on his current average.

… and that is your opinion. Fortunately those making the decisions don’t agree with you. As the meeting was abandoned, the only “fair” decision was to have the current British champion have the Cardiff wildcard. It doesn’t really matter if you agree or not because that is what is happening. I do feel for Bomber - who was riding out of his skin on Monday - as always. Tom Brennan will get his chance in the future as is making good progress in his career.

I think that’s a fair decision for Adam to go to Cardiff based on being the current British Champion

What the news article actually says…. https://www.swindonadvertiser.co.uk/news/20588748.hope-swindons-abbey-stadium-five-new-planning-applications-submitted/

I never noticed earlier in the season but what are they riding on at Peterborough? Any shale I have seen is usually brown in colour but it definitely looked black last night. Very strange.

A number of people have told you already but you are still banging the anti-greyhound agenda on a speedway forum. While you may be passionate about that subject, it is hardly a topic for this forum. We want Swindon Speedway back and that means having the dogs too - as it has been for most of the last 50 years! If you want to talk about speedway then please do but keep your anti-greyhound agenda to yourself please as you have already had more pages on the subject than I care to read!

Unbelievable ending!

So if he can’t earn money riding, he’s earning money co-commentating. You would have thought he would be at Wolves supporting his team though

Good to see Brando back in the pits - so much better than Sudden Sam.

Well done Sheffield - nice to see 4 Swindon riders from the title winning 2019 team - 2 on each team. I think Stevie Worrall got better in commentary as the meeting progressed.

It’s not an easy job to do and I wouldn’t like to do it but there is a definite lack of excitement in the presentation. It’s all very well being a competent speedway rider but that doesn’t necessarily mean that you can do a presenting/commentary role. Tatum and Louis were better in both SGPs. Bring back Brando (for Ermolenko)!

Have to say that Norick Blodorn looks good

One overtake from Basso - and Eurosport missed it - doh!

Basso suffering from TV stage fright? I’ve heard good things about him but not seen that in his first two rides - there’s still time

Some are better! Look at Jason Doyle!

I thought Kiri did a great job - I thought she was better than Abi who she replaced (because of Covid) and I liked Crumpy with Tatum. I don’t know why Eurosport insist on having Ermolenko as he adds nothing to the presentation. The match itself was a bit one-sided but to be expected given the problems KL had.

Can you enlighten me? What rider did Poole sign at the start of a season on a short term contract and then release before the official “transfer window”? If there isn’t one then there is no comparison to make.

I didn’t mention Poole - you did!

I don’t know what the fuss is about. BV have said Jake Allen was only signed on a temporary contract - strange I know but surely it was best to start the season with 7 riders rather than 6. It’s good to see Zagar back riding in the UK

Great work from Kelvin and Chris - it felt odd without Nigel though Overall, it looks like Discovery have spent a lot to make it a better experience for everyone. I didn’t like Graciela as the host and the music was very loud and off putting throughout. Why use Scott Nicholls when they could use Brando - who is a professional presenter?

With regards to Musielak - on his last visit for Swindon in 2019, he scored 9+2.

Casting two fishing rods at the same time! My, you must be bored

Sorry I completely disagree with you - what advantage has been gained?

Don’t understand that one at all. If his average fits, he is willing to commit and available - what is the problem? There is no rule in the rule book to prevent this - except the same old problem from promoters - self interest and not seeing the bigger picture!!

You will find out on Monday
