The problem is we should have kept Danny King. 

Doesn't mean Steve gets the blame for racing incidents! They promised Steve stuff first, would be extremely harsh to go back on that. I mean we have been ruthless in the past, esp in the Prem but not at that level anymore.

Maybe riders need to take that into account too.

How often do you see them all together on bend 3 though? Not that often. Only other time was H2 last week Vs Swindon. 

Not sure we are going to agree on this lol and that is fine! :D

Steve was favoured because he is friends with the management and he was going to get a testimonial, Danny King knew that which is why he made sure of a team place elsewhere,

Maybe agree to disagree, my feeling is he could have shut the throttle off but he is a racer so not in his nature.

It was mentioned in the press conference, definitely over watered 

Every rider mentioned it on BSN... I've seen matches called off with drier tracks :D

It was a racing incident, Steve came off so was cause of the stoppage. There was no contact between any of the riders just all going for it full throttle. Should he just have shut off because a Poole rider was trying to pass him?

Agree,Scott Mitchell trying to blame Hume but he never touched Lawson.

Steve came off as other riders left him no room and they were altogether. He had no choice. Lawson's fault more than Steve's imo. 

Steve decided too get off IMO,He hadn’t lost total control when you watch it on BSN.Rightly excluded IMO.

Danyon did nothing wrong. Lawson tried to come across him he stood his ground, Lawson went bit wider because of that and Steve bailed out

He had nowhere to go so hardly his fault! What was he supposed to do? 

Worrall bailed out very early... I would have thought a rider of his calibre should have been able to save that, I've seen riders touching the air fence on the 1st and 2nd bends at Poole as that's the only racing line later on, so why he bailed out so early on turn 3 is a mystery

1. You mean H13. He means Hume then who started off the domino effect 

2. Not so sure. Redcar is known for not really having much home advantage. So think it is on a knive edge personally. A dodgy exclusion could decide it! We are capable of getting 43. We shall see. 

Hume? He backed off going into the bend. Lawson sent Worrall wide!:rofl:

A lot of riders say it can be quite narrow going into bend 3. Maybe refs need to take this into account in future meetings? 

The problem with that is, if a referee allows all four because of riders running out of room on a tight track, you could get 3 or 4 re-runs of multiple heats, especially at a smaller track like Plymouth, then you'd also get riders laying it down for a re-run knowing they won't be excluded!
