With another great display at Stoke the Scotwaste Monarchs took 4 points and roared over the line to confirm their third Premier League championship - and in some ways their best.

Comparisons may not be entirely fair, but with an away match record now of 9 wins in 11 matches, this is the best we have ever been.

Again it was a team show with everyone contributing, but the strong men tonight were the top two of Ryan Fisher (how good a season has he had?) and Kevin Wolbert, both totally dominant and devastating.

As at King's Lynn, the score flattered the home side - our unlucky man was Matthew whose bike failed while he led heat 8 and threw him on to the track. He also stopped in his next race.

William Lawson also had a fall while leading, but these misfortunes were only blips on the road to success.

A huge travelling support made their way down the M6 to see if the team could finish the job, and they were not disappointed. From the heat 1 5-1 we took control and never looked like losing.

On Sunday we go to Glasgow with the pressure completely off - we are the champions!
