Special mention to Joe Thompson, looked like he was going to pick up his scoring drought where he left off last season early on at Belle Vue but then since has showed some real signs of progress 👍👏
Rowe jumped at the start, the tapes went up and then Dougy shed a chain, it then took Jarvis Cockup until the other 3 were coming out of the 2nd bend to stop the race!
Not right for me, you're right though, probably covered under the green light being on.

Maybe to do with Rugby being a contact sport and Speedway not. There's a very high chance of the brain receiving trauma in a Rugby player's very next match, not so much Speedway.
Booked a holiday this afternoon in Poole... thought, oh I'll be able to pull a visit in to Wimborne Road, checked the fixtures out and there's only 1 single fixture between the 9th of May and the 14th of July!!!! WTF!!!!
