Not so sure Kerr will be as good at Belle Vue  and Nicholls doesn't usually go well there so could be a struggle for Peterborough on monday.

Haven't lost there this season tbf. Nicholls had a good British final too

Lets just hope for two good meetings for the cameras and that no guests end up racing, thus making the flagship domestic final of the sport a contrived joke..

If a heat leader is missing from each team then both run RR...

From reading the reports it sounded like all the meetings in the semis were a bit short on the level of entertainment we would want, (only personally watched the Wolves leg of their semi so maybe the reports didnt do the others justice)...

Regardless, hopefully we can have two great finals, delivered by two "proper" teams...

 

Agree if heat leader missing from both sides run with rider RR

If we keep it tight at the NSS then we win.

Forget our two Home defeats to the Aces because one was due to fatigue from a double header and the other was down to a poor race track.

Make the track grippy with an outside line at the EOEA then the Worrall's won't be half as effective as they're trappers who produce their best on slick tracks.

As for the NSS meeting Pedersen & Palin should have the beating of Etheridge & Brennan so it's down to the top 5 to keep it close.

Always got excuses. You could also say only reason Peterborough won at NSS was because Belle Vue had terrible guest Ricky Wells scoring 1 point for Etheridge.

We would've hit 50+ if Ulrich was riding.

BV got off lightly with the 4 point defeat we handed them.

A massive treat is in store for Speedway fans up and down the country next Thursday.

Tina Turner will be making a public appearance at the EOEA to sing 'Simply the best' during the Panthers title parade.

I believe she may be singing at the interval as well. 

And given the expected Aces lead by then...

"We dont need another zero" will be your song of choice.. :D

Ulrich rode in the A meeting where you did worse.

If I'm not mistaken, the likes of Bewley and Kurtz have never ridden in a Premiership Play-off Final.

The likes of Andersen, Pedersen, Nicholls and Harris have all performed in pressure situations.

I think BV's top 2 could choke under the pressure.

I think Wroclaw v Lublin, in which Bewley had a starring role, might just have been a higher pressure play-off final

Have a look at how Bewley just rode in the polish play off final now that's pressure.

Good call to be fair...

Dan in particular may freeze given all he has done recently is compete (extremely well), in front of two "full houses" in the Polish play offs..

Riding in front of a combined total of fans at the NSS and Peterborough that wouldnt reach anywhere near the amount of just one leg of the final in Poland must be nerve wracking..

As must riding for a title that will hardly raise a paragraph in the local paper of either team rather than make that nights national TV sporting news...

Not to mention also the huge financial  bonus of winning that I am sure he and his fellow Aces team will be riding for in the UK, which will dwarf the trifling amount that winning the Polish title brought to him... 

Hope he can manage to keep the incredible pressure under control...:D
