Poole are riding well at the moment ... but let's remember it's all about end of season p.offs and cup finals. Not sure that they performed too well last year ?

Last year Glasgow signed a near 9 points rider on a 5 point average. That won't happen this year.

Then they lost fair & square to a Lambert inspired Scunthorpe.

I think this year they are even more clear of the rest. Last year Oxford & Glasgow (pre-Tarasenko) weren't far behind, don't seem to have the same challenges this year.

That was only last year. What about the previous 2 years?!

Would be amazed if they don’t win the treble this year. They just have a different class of rider.

Saw Ben Cook’s race wins in the PL Ekstraliga today against Wroclaw and he was flying

Only injuries will stop the treble.IMO.

I personally dont think the crowds are as high as riding in the championship needs them to be, for it to be sustainable. 

But one thing is for sure, the crowds at the Poole meeting yesterday were MUCH higher than of late !  Even better that those at the Ben Fund Meeting in my opinion !

I disagree. I think the crowds have been great this year

But the incident with Cook didnt h Once the riders are them progressing to the 2nd bend, he cant use the "1st bend bunching" rule !

 

No such rule. If the race is stopped after an incident on the first bend it's due to an unsatisfactory start. :cheers:
