PS Bit disappointed with the Start Tarts tonight; must have scraped the barrel at the local dogs' home - in a pinch I'd give it to White.
Yes i bet the local ladies are queueing up outside your door to go on a date with you Dave.
My first visit to Perry Bar and my first experience of NL racing.....
I was visiting Birmingham for a short break and thought i would take in the Dudley v Plymouth match, the racing was quite good with Tom Perry being the Star for the Heathens with Simmonds and Stephens keeping the Plymouth boat afloat.
The support for the Heathens was very impressive for a team without its own stadium, they probably have more fans than some Pl teams!!...all kitted out in some fin club colours too... some very enthusiastic fans.
The only downside was the limited viewing (the track is above the perimeter) if not in the posh seats indoors... but thats not watching real Speedway .... i stood with the gf in the dark temporary scaffold stand.
Line up:
Kauko Nieminen, Derek Sneddon, David Howe, Mark Lemon, Tomas Topinka, Jason Lyons, Chris Kerr, Morten Risager, Rusty Harrison, Craig Cook, Chris Schramm and Andre Compton..

Well done to Chris Holder, superb racer.
Bitter dissapointment for Tomasz, what an entertainer
The ref needs to go to Specsavers after letting Crump back in heat 14...
Really good Cardiff GP, well done to all concerned.
Well done to Ashworth and Auty.
Seems strange that in the Pairs riders have to wear their own body colours but have them provided in the Fours?
From my experience last year at the Pairs Somerset is a great track and has a superb set up.
Some disrespectful comments regarding PL riders and some strange decisions by the referee.
I also think Tai Woffinden should have been awarded the title with Lee Richardson in second place.
Great meeting tonight, special rides from Cookie and Kildemand
Also an unbelieable pass from Compo!
Good to see the old riders especially Lou Sansom and Stoney but all the riders made it a great evening well done to Tony Jackson who put in a a lot of hard work to organise the meeting.
