Martin Rogers had recently protested about Reading's choice of Martin Dixon as a guest for injured Malcolm Holloway. The Racers called up Andy Galvin instead who helped them to an unexpected win. Martin was also critical of Peter McNamara being allowed to ride as our promoted junior despite having ridden 20 matches for Milton Keynes, and had disputed the re-assessment of Kelly Moran's average.

The Stars gathered 2 bonus points to the Tigers 6 which could help explain why the Tigers with just 6 heat winners took the Cup points despite the home teams 7 winners. Sam Ermolenko top scored as a guest for injured Neil Collins and I guess our American friends may have celebrated well in the bar post match.
