Wrong I am afraid. From the SON regulations, notice the emphasis on Team and not rider - The winning team of the Grand Final heat will become 2021 SoN champions. The losing team of the Grand Final heat will become 2021 SoN Runner up. The losing team of the Grand Final Qualifier heat will become 2021 SoN Third Place. The only time head to head comes into the equation is prior to Heats 43 and 44

Good meeting tonight. Being a Pirates fan now living in Nottingham it's only a 40 minute drive so was not going to miss this. Enjoyed seeing Basso for the first time - quite a distant last in his first ride but obviously sized the track up after his first outing and was quick thereafter. Certainly not a dull rider but could do with reigning it in a bit as proven in heat 10 when he took out Zaine Kennedy. Stevie W and Rooboy were quick and Poole's top scorers but the rider who impressed me the most was Danyon Hume. Stand up and take a bow young man. A Rising Star riding at number 2 and he was simply superb - definitely the rider of the night for me

From the BSPA website. Read it as Poole cannot pick Glasgow - PLAY-OFF PICTURE - HOW IT WORKS- The quarter-finals will consist of the 3rd v 6th placed team and 4th v 5th placed team, the top two teams will go direct to the semi-final.- The team who finishes top will have the pick of the quarter-final winners in the semi-finals.- All ties are over two legs.

I was at the double header today at Trent Bridge. £14 for two matches with some decent cricket, resident DJ and live music throughout the day - there was a similarity with the speedway as the sound system in the Yu Energy Stand wasn't great At least it meant that I didn't hear too much of the modern day "music"! Certainly good VFM.

Eric Broadbelt

Final WC in Vojens in 1994 - Trick, Nielsen and Boycie - I was there

NBJ back and Wells in for Nico according to Poole site

Correct, unless any of the riders decide to forego the GPs and put British Speedway first

It's the restaging of the semi final rained off last week this Thursday so no Klindt or NBJ

The updater is taking this from the Poole Twitter feed and the rider scores by heat are correct but have been transposed incorrectly in to the score charts. You cannot blame Poole Speedway for that

It is the mighty Eric Broadbelt. My first speedway hero when he came to Poole in 1974 - with the Pirates for 4 seasons and can honestly say that I still have not seen a more exciting rider.

Here you go folks https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/live/motorsport/45993727

He was riding. Scored 3 points and had two falls.

My bad if the BSPA site is correct, although like you I remember him reaching the final in the Aussie U-21s in January this year

The only one I can think of is Jordan Stewart who is riding for Redcar this season.

That was the New England Patriots. Always remember a snow game against the Dolphins in 2003 when Tedi Bruschi got a pick 6 and the crowd celebrated throwing snow in the air in time with Rock 'n' Roll.

I found out about it at the Scunny v Ipswich meeting in August. Popped my entry in but not a winner

According to the Echo website Robert Lambert is only riding in the first meeting against Poole. Is this true and if so why??

Cookie

And Doolan is Australian (unless he has done a Rory Schlein)

Have not seen it mentioned (apologies if it has!!) but according to the BSPA greensheets, effective 8th May, Swindon have dropped Grondal and brought in Danny Gappmaier. No mention on the Swindon website either.......not another BSPA c..k up surely!! If true a good move imho. http://www.speedwaygb.co/files/downloads/p17_issue_5.pdf

I think Somerset might have something to say about Starke Does make you realise just how difficult team changes will be this season.
