Rained a lot again through the night... will be surprised if the track is OK by Saturday, going by the looks of it on Tuesday. Also more on the way... you know you love a weather forecast, we all do

Almost as ridiculous as a team manager only managing his team for southern matches and going on a golfing holiday during play off season

Delicately poised... the result of this tie may very well depend on the condition of the track whenever the 2nd leg is held

Sweet Caroline time... yes!

Joe Thompson been very impressive tonight... Why do Poole have a Rat as a club mascot?

If Zach had gone down there I'm pretty sure Connor Mountain would have been excluded

Do races ever get rerun these days if they are into the 3rd lap? Instead of the no tacticals in the final rule they should run ALL races over 4 laps

Who's the ref? We might need an 8th (wo)man

Please tell me you're joking! Oh Christ! You're not joking, just seen him on parade

Manager and Captain missing for the final... it's like when Darcy Ward got into a fight on the eve of the final a few years back... it's gonna be tough

Will he dare switch Dan from 5?

Oh no! I'm not surprised, it's stressful enough being a Speedway fan, let alone trying to get these meetings on! Hope the lads can "do it for Stewart" and obviously hope the special one makes a speedy recovery

He's got 2 "assistants" that do the graft for him though hasn't he?

Good news it's 18 degrees in Leicester with warm sunshine and a strong drying wind, today's weather just may save the weekend's meeting as long as the rain that is predicted over the next 3 days isn't too heavy

We had a heavy shower yesterday afternoon and even the footpath outside my house (in the shade) hasn't completely dried out! That's why nobody outside our country runs important Speedway matches at this time of year, there's just not enough hours of daylight for conditions to dry out before the next dollop of rain arrives

It has rained... a LOT! And it doesn't really dry up that quickly at this time of year

Sunny and drying up slowly. Supermarket car park LE4 1DE - 4 hour limit!

...or what Jubilee

I also know the likelihood of the Jubilee Trophy being completed is almost non-existent

If recent double headers are anything to go by, it'll be 1 hour 45 mins for the first meeting, a 40 minute track prep and 1 hour 45 mins for the second meeting

Report: we've had rain through the night and this morning

Usual warning applies... if you're coming to this (if it goes ahead) be aware that if you park on the supermarket car park there is a 4 hour time limit, enforced by cameras! History shows that running double headers at Leicester takes considerably longer than 3 and a half hours (15 mins each way from car park)

4 meetings

After about 5 or 6 races at Poole if your back wheel isn't on the fence you can forget about it

That's right, it's because we don't want to serve up a 1 line track like you have at Poole
