Well... 5pm has come and gone, but we do have an update on the website, the ELRC draw, the ELRC that was taken off of Cov because they couldn't run a in a brewery

Less than 10 hours to go and we still don't know the line-up

yes

Can forget the title for this season now I think

Barker is a PL rider

This was never going to finish with both teams operating R/R in both matches

I'm sure one person on this forum is Mick in disguise

So what exactly are the line-ups for tonight as it stands at the moment?

NEWS FLASH! It is

you seem to fail to grasp the concept of rules, so what is acceptable? 30.0000000002mph? 30.0000000003mph? 30.0050000000mph? 31mph? 35mph? 40mph? 50mph? Who decides? 2 minutes 5 seconds? 2 minutes 10 seconds? 3 minutes? 5 minutes? Anarchy!

Are all riders tested or is it random?

Do you think he was drinking by himself?

Looks like we'll never find out who tbc was going to be

7:20 and still tbc at number 6! Are they going to pull somebody out of the crowd I wonder

Where's Bomber? Where's Pedo? Where's Garrity? Where's Gypo Jensen? Who's TBC? Hasn't Mick got it the wrong way around? Shouldn't it be a tenner tonight?

Boring

As a Coventry fan I'll probably never get to see Craig Cook ride!

Nothing new here though is there... I remember many years ago Cov turning up at KL with Lee Coleman (where is he now?) replacing Hans Nielsen, the only thing was that this was in the days before the internet so nobody was aware of this until the parade! At least now we're all well informed enough to stay away and save some money, that's about the only positive I can draw from the whole sorry shambles

Dull

It says a lot about the quality of racing these days that this thread is mostly about rulebook technicalities and helmets touching tapes, yes there was 1 marginally good race but this was over after a lap really. The sport ain't what it used to be! On a positive note, good to see Nicholls looking the most competitive he has done in years, must have bought a rocket for the British Final!

They should do what they do in the GP and have a clock on the centre showing how much of the 2 mins is left, if a rider isn't ready, he's out. It works brilliantly in the GP, a few riders got excluded once and it never happened again. Generally speedway is run in such a slap dash way that (perhaps it should be renamed to this, slapdashway) that the 2 mins can easily end up being 3, yes I have timed it in the past (anorak!)

Really? How much? I think I must have missed this

Any ideas when we can expect the results of the inquest that was going to take place? it's been a few months now and I've not seen anything? #JustSaying

Third! Yes Brilliant!
