60-30. But you never know!

59-31 @Steve Shovlar 

Think u might be right tho with Pirates hitting 60.

Redcar won at Plymouth but that means little when teams come to WINborne Road!

C'mon the Boyzzzz :t:

Is it seeded or could Scunthorpe meet Workington again?

That could indeed happen yes. Any lucky it'll be Poole Vs Workington and Edinburgh Vs Scunthorpe bit of Variety with Scunthorpe been in same Group as Workington and against Poole on the KOC

so it looks like the richard and tom brennan show were just a publicty stunt  because the management  knew all along max was getting dropped and another rider was already being brought in .shame , shame , shame if you cant win something with the top 5 riders that you have . there is something wrong . hope he gets fixed up somewhere and never goes back to Poole .

That is not the point, if there is a chance of strengthening the team even if it looks the best already then you take that opportunity.

What an awful place to watch your speedway 

Seems like Pooles new signing isn’t going to be better than the rider he replaced …. Poole love to put young Brits on the scrap heap

Only saw the kid once live and didn't get impression gating was his strong suit. Hopefully gets a good go as looked a prospect on Sunday. 1st time in champ sure were some nerves involved too

The racing at most places is pretty poor isn't it?

BSN must be cheesed off as they depend so much on "generic" speedway fans subscribing...

I get to watch Poland and Sweden and often give UK racing a miss on Eurosport given invariably it is poor entertainment..

Apart from a few tracks, eg. (in no particular order), NSS, Glasgow, Worky, Scunthorpe 0 and Redcar, there does seem to be a very low entertainment threshold at a lot of tracks...

Based on a "win at all costs" mentality maybe around track prep?

What promoters forget I fear is that only one team can win a league, so, for many teams, they are out of contention within a month or two,..

(Leagues where let's be honest don't carry too much kudos or financial reward)..

,Therefore, selling "the racing" for thes majority of clubs has to be key surely?

Good performance from the Bears - Jason Edwards in particular but Wright, Bailey and Mulford all had their moments too. With a fully fit Danny King it might have been even closer. Obviously Lawson losing a chain helped but Bears deserve some luck after the season we’ve had so far.

Lawson and Brennan very good for the Pirates, but the rest of the team very up and down.

As others have said the racing wasn’t good, only 2 passes of note (Wright and Brennan) and the rest decided by turn 3 lap 1. Noticeable too how strung out the races were after the blue groove appeared.

BSN stream good as usual but watched without sound as I just can’t listen to Roynon.
