Only heat 23... everyone over to Lynn

It'll be fun reading the Peterborough thread to see them take the negative out of this performance

Track just not wet enough to produce enough grip... although heat 21 was a bit good!

Tonight's event has been badly let down by the track prep (and the non appearances) it was obvious after the first few races that there wasn't enough moisture in the track and nobody did anything about it until it was far too late. They've just spent about a quarter of an hour on it only for it to be exactly the same as it was before after 4 laps of "racing", it's been a theme here for most of the year.

Do you wanna do a swapsy for Bomber?

Be nicer to see some H2o on it @H20

Also let's not forget that he was heavily involved in turning the Great Britain Speedway from also-rans to consitent medalists and World Champions!

Glorious!

Like he clarified that Tarasenko would be turning out for Peterborough on the podcast? it's not a matter of what I would or wouldn't like to see and shopping riders it's about clear and transparent upholding of the rules to ensure sporting integrity... one of Phil Morris' remits. The question still remains unanswered what's the difference between a League, KO Cup & PL Pairs fixture... why do some carry bans and others don't?

... and the ones that are currently used in the BL don't even last for a "single use"!

What I'd like to know is why have the riders that have "elected" to miss this meeting not sanctioned with a 7 day ban like Artem Laguta for electing to miss the Wolves league match. Who decides which meeting carries a sanction? If the Pairs doesn't but league matches do, why aren't they treated the same if they are "official" fixtures... what about the KO Cup? Is that official, does that carry a potential ban... what another fine mess they've gotten themselves into

It is 23 races though.

That's because they've all been treated like crap by the clubs they ride for

Roll up! Roll up! Peterborough represented by Ben Cook & Richie Worrall

I would have thought he probably knows nothing about it

"Mr Laguta had suffered from food poisoning and was unable to travel to the UK and advised to rest for a period of at least 2 days" The ban doesn't extend as far as Poland... we're only shooting ourselves in the foot on this occasion. Anyway looks like he went against doctors advice and decided to go for a run

Best not to talk to them... you'd be slitting your wrists by the end of the conversation!

What puzzled me the most when they were discussing it on Eurosport was Nicholls & Tatum suggesting that the favourites to land him would be Wolves! As if it was a given that they'd be riding next year

To be fair... look at the clowns he has to deal with over here

Did Ashton Boughen receive a 7 day ban from when he missed the Worky v Leicester match when "his dad was taken ill"?

How about when signing the rider not stipulating/agreeing to that rider missing some away matches at "small" tracks?

Because watching 4 riders race around an oval dirt track on 500cc machines with no brakes still gets me fizzing

Must have been those Fish & Chips he was raving about, good job mystic Buster had Bomber on stand-by in case Artem followed through ... Wait until Tarasenko's Full English filters through his system, it could be season ending carnage

Just don't mention the riders flying here, there and everywhere

I think you've got a pretty competitive team as it is now... don't forget you were up against the current Champs and table toppers with a number of riders who go really well around the EoES. I thought Andersen looked a lot more on the pace last night, Cook had that silly tapes infringement... I do feel that NKI is exposed at number 1 though
