Plymouth v Edinburgh 02/07

[jbell1995]

Here we go then, chance for the Gladiators to get a second aggregate point win of the season as they take a slender lead into tomorrow’s fixture.

Nico Covatti is riding at 1 for the Gladiators. Edinburgh will be a tough opponent with Picko and Paco who always go well around the Glads home track.

Weather looks decent, it’s on BSN, should be a good crowd getting right behind the team as they always do. Should be good

Just out of interest what do you estimate a good crowd to be? I've watched several streamed meetings and found it difficult to judge.

I would say anything from 600-750, preferably the top end of that. This is a big meeting in context of the season. We saw a few decent crowds last season, Glasgow at home springs to mind was a particularly big crowd. We'll have to wait and see I guess. Just glad to finally have some racing at home again, feels like an eternity 

[Mr Blobby]

Can’t see anything but a home win. Purely down to the fact we’ll take a hammering at reserve that the top 5 won’t be able to cover.

What an unusually prepared track

[Mr Blobby]

Thank god we don’t have to go to this place for another year. Amateur track prep.

Be careful wot you say Plymouth fans don't like the truth being told  on a positive looks to be a decent crowd, better than when worky were there

I usually like watching most speedway matches for most teams but Plymouth is a hard watch. The track is awful.

[Bellers101]

Two heats gone and it's evident the track prep at Plymouth is poor again! Every time Plymouth is on BSN we see more tractor action than racing!

They just need to burn some straw on the track and it will be ok.

Such an unprofessional outfit.

[Woke23]

Can't really call this racing. It's more like a nice game of follow the leader. 

[IainB]

Plymouth is a bit of a throw back to Long Eaton of the early 80's

[Mike0310]

I have no excuses sometimes you can’t defend the indefensible.

[Bellers101]

Speedway from the bottom drawer!
