Why is your hate affecting your ability to read? If Glasgow beat us to the title because they are the better team I'm fine with that and because they've had some near misses. But constant haters like you make me hope that we beat them comfortably because you won't be able to handle it.

Only way Poole will win comfortably is if they produce there usual MX track.. i predict a bumpy one, still will give Basso an excuse when he fences someone again

That year doesn't exist sorry! But if it did exist I'm sure Coventry only had a 6 point lead from their home leg so that's why I'm a bit cautious. You just never know with playoff finals. You have to expect the unexpected.

Might be an idea to advise Glasgow riders to bring plenty of thermos flasks filled with hot water just in case

Not bumpy any more. Basso doesn't fence anyone. Next excuse? Now if you gave more realistic reasons like it being dusty, might have a point! That will the biggest issue for track staff.

Cookie goaded him in first one made a wee movement he jumped. If was case why no complain to middlo get then to test tapes. Looking for excuses I'm afraid

Said they were held down too long and it spoilt the meeting and it silly when they do that? Then rest of article is how he thinks Poole's top 3 is stronger and Thursday will be good meeting to watch. 

He sounds a bit annoyed! Now some riders ride better when they are like that, but is Stevie one of them? IDK.

So his issue is with the referee then? Didn't think were particularly long holds. Seen worse

After watching Sam tonight I think your initial summary that a move to a smaller track may help him improve.

He seemed very awkward entering bend 3 tonight for some reason usually attacks the high line , his inconsistency is the only thing consistent with him the last few weeks but overall a fair result tonight both teams guilty of gifting points.

Will ten be enough I have a sneaky feeling it will be , on the Basso Brennan incident Tom was left with nowhere to go it was a hard move by Basso and a bit naughty as he glanced too see where Tom was coming from but as he was in front the only call the referee could make was to exclude Tom.

If Tom is in front of him on Thursday I think he will be as equally hard on him as he looked less than impressed when Basso passed whilst he was getting to his feet.

Bend 3 was bit patchy think he just wasn't committed enough. Just think needs a season to develop his technical skills, could easily have had 9 points tonight.

 

It's one of those, I watched greivesy do it plenty times, only place got excluded was rye house. Only decision ref could make as was no contact.

 

Definitely think he'll look to pay it back in kind

Maybe Danes are just taught to be harder on track. Bjarne was always nice and fair on track unless he was racing against another dane then it was elbows out and pushing them as wide as possible!

Stevie saying tapes were rising too slowly? 

I made a comment to my friend next to me,I though they were too loose they seemed to go up quicker on the inside and outside because of it,there was some pretty uneven starts all night.IMO.just my opinion though obviously the Team Managers were OK with it.
