Fantastic to see Craig Cook make SGP next season, certainly returned to top form just at the right time.

Congratulations to Berwick`s Leon Flint on becoming British 250cc Champion for the third time at Glasgow last night.

Another good meaning where once again I had value for money, sad then there was not as many there to see it as usual, hopefully those who don`t attend as regular anymore will return as the racing has been of a decent level for most of this season. Congratulations to Nick Morris on his paid max, he had to ride some very tough first turns to do so but he was a class above last night and also delighted to hear that Tero Aarnio`s injury is not as bad as announced last night.

Didn't fall but had a coming together with Gappmaier on the last corner of the last lap sustaining a broken metatarsal.

Lets hope the second part of your prediction works out a bit better than the first.

Tero Aarnio a good job for Newcastle last season and is putting in some very decent scores for Scunthorpe this, in fact some match winning scores at times so his scoring tonight will go along way to deciding his side's fate. Sadly for him and Scunthorpe I can only see a reasonably comfortable home win.

Meeting off.

Bit breezy but tomorrows forecast is good. http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/2655819?day=1

Dont think the dropping of Sedgeman was the problem, it was the almighty cock up that the Ipswich promotion made of it that saw them having to take back a rider they clearly didn't want.

Correct, Chris Harris comes into guest.

Did you expect anything else.

Holder will get away without a ban as his club gave him permission to miss the 4`s and the meeting at Newcastle last night, probably Scunthorpe next Sunday to race in Poland.

Thats the main issue for me, Peterborough knew they were turning up last night without Holder and were rightly denied any guest facility, but Newcastle may have suffered losing out through the turnstiles and they have done nothing wrong.

In this particular instance its got very little to do with the BSPA, in fact in denying the Panthers any facility for Holder they have done all they can. Letting Holder miss meetings in the first place is the problem.

That just wont happen, there is no problem with riding in Poland, the problem comes when riders are missing Championship meetings to ride for their Polish club, as is happening with Holder.

I have sympathy for the paying public of both sides, especially those who have followed Peterborough at Edinburgh and then Berwick last night, I have sympathy for the Newcastle promotion who have done nothing wrong yet have to try a get a decent crowd through the door. I have zero sympathy with the Peterborough promotion who have let one of their better riders disappear off to Poland just so they can get a few extra pounds in the kitty. I am sure they will do their best but this could arguably the weakest Championship this season.

You also have to feel for the Panthers fans who have been following their side over the last couple of days to, good amount at Berwick last night who no doubt will be moving on to Brough Park tonight.

Partly through their own decisions Peterborough will field a weakened team tonight, that may put one or two off attending. As a gesture of goodwill could Rathbone not use some of the money he got from Torun to compensate Newcastle.

Hugely enjoyable meeting and certainly worth the admission, and very nice to win a tight meeting for a change. Peterborough forced their way back into the meeting with an 8-1 in Ht9 and then a 5-1 in Ht14 looked to have Peterborough as favourites going into the last race but thanks to Nick Morris and another heroic ride from David Howe saw the home side home. Hopefully all the injured riders will be able to take part in their next meetings especially Ulrich Ostergaard who survived a nasty looking accident when running into Steve Worrall and Jack Parkinson Blackburn who ended his night in an ambulance due to a Ht12 crash.

Looks like Peterborough have been granted no facility and were due to use Jack Parkinson Blackburn in place of Holder, not so sure that will still be the case as JPB was injured at Berwick last night.

Your comparing Jye Etheridge with Ivan Mauger.

Track doesn't sound the best.

While it remains cloudy the rain we had earlier has all but stopped.

What has Cook got away with.

Dont worry us morons will find something to bleat about next week the week after and any other week you want to name. Maybe we could bleat about posters who come onto threads and complain about other posters bleating.
