Does that fit with a 2 pointer ? According to my back of a fag packet calculations that would be just over the limit.

Couple of second strings required if the rumours of the top 3 and 1 reserve are correct. So who do we think? Newman? Hume? Rowe? Ruml? A N Other?

Think that’s about 5 points over the limit!

All pretty quiet on the rumours front. Wright and Edwards seem to be the only 2 certainties, the rest not so sure.

Was good in the Teesside silver helmet too. Good signing I reckon.

Team to be announced at the Xmas party on 3rd December. Apparently.

Wright confirmed as the first rider for 2023.

Well I enjoyed it as a neutral. Close meeting, some decent races and a few talking points. Congratulations to the Aces.

Congratulations to Poole, obviously worthy winners. Didn’t pay for the stream but a decent effort by the team without Charles.

Kye Thomson guests in place of Charles

I used the word potential advisedly. Well done to the Pirates, deserved winners. Ben Cook absolutely fantastic and too many Bears off the pace. Still an enjoyable meeting and some good racing.

Meaningless!! How dare you! Potential fight back starts here….

Easily Pooles most impressive rider tonight. Been excellent.

Fantastic second bend by both Cook boys there. Really poor from the Bears second strings so far.

I think it was the first bend, at least that’s what his finger gesture seemed to suggest. Didn’t see anything naughty from the back straight to be honest.

Edwards/Jenkins really struggling, needed them to find mid season form. Ben Cook mightily impressive so far. Edit: Add Kasper to the list.

Everyone likes the track.

I’m pretty sure they will enjoy it, track will no doubt be well prepared and produce a good meeting. Realistically the Bears are up against it, even at home, but if all the Bears 1-7 ride well ( that hasn’t happened very often) then hopefully they can put up a good show. Given the amount of guests used this year it’s nice to see full 1-7’s for each team. Just getting my big coat ready for tonight.

No more rain forecast and track looks in good condition at the moment on the press release (better than the spelling anyway).

Rain supposed to stop after lunch but I don’t think there will be much dust tonight, if it’s on. Cold too. The Aussies won’t like it. Hopefully….

Congratulations to the Monarchs for progressing, but that was a good effort from the Bears tonight. As expected, too much to pull back after last nights poor display. With a full team, or more choice of guests, I think it would have been much closer. Hopefully the Bears can get everyone back for the KOC final.

Flint in as guest for Kerr.

Tie is effectively over after tonight’s match. Edinburgh totally out gated the Bears and most races could have been awarded after the first lap. Was an awful watch as a Bears fan. Bears will struggle again tomorrow given the injuries and lack of suitable guests.

To be honest I think I’d enjoy it more if mine was pitch black. Terrible meeting to watch as a neutral I’d imagine as we’ve had 1 pass so far all night, but as a Bears fan it’s painful to see.

That reminds me, Gone fishing is on at 9pm tonight. Hopefully they are as successful as NYB!
