    Belle Vue 2024

    It’s a decent side I don’t think any side can be classed as poor until we see what they go like as a team However my team Ipswich and Belle Vue have replaced 2 riders each from the 1-7 last season Belle Vue replace Wright and Brennan ( who in the league meetings at Foxhall got 15 and 19 between them ) with Cook and Mountain which makes them weaker in my opinion (especially at Foxhall)….. and Ipswich have replaced Riss and Hume with Ellis and Jenkins which in my opinion makes them stronger … so we beat Belle Vue in the play offs last year and this season I would fancy us again I admit obviously each team has strengths at different tracks like Sheffield look strong but the Holders sulk at Foxhall and Tai hasn’t been there for years …. For example Iversen and Musielek will probably outscore the Holder brothers easily at Foxhall Still it’s all about opinions … may the best team win lol
  2. King Riss and Hume our for Ellis Brennan and Wojdylo......................thats pretty strong and possibly always having one strong reserve though the Pole is a worry on our track lol I still cant see Ipswich letting Danny go. Club captain and led us to a trophy and his form improved at the end of the season and very good friends with the management. Personally the team you have listed can be title winners and definitely better than the Sheffield 1-7

    Sheffield Tigers 2024

    That top 3 will ensure no home losses Though when they come to us at Ipswich the Holder brothers usually spit the dummy so I wouldn’t expect them to win at our place but you never know
  4. Cant see Musielek at Ipswich as that would mean no King and i cant see that happening I would love to see Musielek he is a class act on and off the track......i remember the cup final and he was the only Sheffield rider to congratulate the Ipswich fans..........while the others stropped and sulked ....god id hate my team to have a Holder brother or Tai no matter how many points they brought in Emil Doyle King Ellis/Brennan ? Rew D Thompson Who we can get and how much we have to play with i dont know Riss to me looks a gamble.......Never looked comfortable on the bike to me but maybe his average fits and would there be anyone better This means Hume out for either Ellis or Brennan (if that works) and that looks strong to me
  5. Doyle and Emil are definitely back so I’ve heard so to get Tobi will mean a lot of outlay and no King…. Not sure that will happen but for me I would go for it why not Means the side built along the same lines except Tobi for King which is an upgrade Riss is still a worry .. yes a low average but his demeanour on the bike wasn’t good and I’d be concerned on him improving on it Rew should add hopefully 1.5 on his average. Dan Thompson a no brainier as the rising star Hume is a difficult one as he is a fans favourite , gives 110% and is always amenable and friendly after a meeting …. If we do go top heavy with Doyle Musi and Emil is there a better rider on his average? Not sure there is

    Poole 2024

    Trying to think why Poole fans are given a hard time on this forum……. Simply read this thread it tells you all you need to know about them …… What a bunch of absolute (insert word deemed appropriate) Think their club is the best ever biggest ever and nobody wants to leave ever … only if you ride for Poole will you ever improve as a rider Shocking to let Rowe go young British rider done well and see you later …. The Thompson twins have no desire to be Poole riders and I know that for a fact But anyway let’s just let these fans have their thread Lawson going nowhere but Ben Cook is looking likely it’s been mentioned at most places … Im sure Poole will build a half decent side they often do … but to be so pig headed is just weird

    Jubilee final!!!!!

    No I wouldn’t especially if it means nothing and racing against a select 7 in a match that my team will win easily … I have better things to spend my money on…. I only missed 2 matches at Foxhall this season but if we was racing a very weak team in a match that means nothing I wouldn’t spend £50 of my money no No you fool the reason there is a pile on is because of people like you who dish it out week after week and yet can’t take it back Poole are disliked for their antics over the years and the absolute buffoons of supporters on here who literally have no clue about the sport Ask most fans on here which club has the most pathetic fan base and Poole would win by a mile That said people like foreverblue and rayc are decent enough

    Jubilee final!!!!!

    Kemp a reserve all season rides at 2 Hume a second string rides as a heat leader Allen got 4 last week at Poole Flint and Edwards struggled at Poole this season Butcher…. Ever ridden there! Yes Shovlar 2 evenly matched teams …. Cretin

    Jubilee final!!!!!

    Oh dear god I’ve read it all now Shovlar trying not only to big this meeting up as important….. when nobody even Leicester fans care as it’s not worth a thing ….. but then he says ‘2 evenly matched teams’ ….. with Leicester slightly stronger!! The man is deluded or a child With the exception of Harris Leicester have no chance at all and are weaker in pretty much every area….. Cook against Hume is for one quite laughable Poole will hit at least 55….. How any Poole fan would part with money to go watch this is beyond me Well done Shovlar you will get one prize this season and no doubt we will get race by race commentary and a match report and how amazing it is to win a trophy Poole , just like my team Ipswich , choked when it mattered ….. winning a tin pot trophy against an extremely weak opponent will gloss over nothing
  10. Wasn’t far out To many cocky Poole fans but as pointed out Scunthorpe drew earlier in the season I said if Lambert and Palm Toft got 12 or 13 or would be close and they got 15 I got Allen and Mountain the wrong way round and Kemp got slightly more
  11. All the Poole fans all cocky saying the tie was over and they choked huge huge choke Poole specialist Douglas doesn’t win a heat and yet Poole still couldn’t win ….. Steve Worrall really has gone missing in both finals So so sweet

    Glasgow Tigers 2024

    Zach is a decent enough rider but i cant see him improving much past where he is Averaging 6.22 isnt pulling up any trees He does his job scoring 7 or 8 at home and often beating his opposing number second string and the other teams reserve. He did very well at Scunthorpe and did out score Duggy but had one extra ride and yes he won the Olympique but that throws up odd results because of the format Ben is the one going places out of the two. That said i would take either at Ipswich next season as a number 6
  13. If Ipswich don’t sign up Emil and Doyle they will lose a fair number of fans These 2 put bums on seats and provide huge entertainment…. I’ve bask going Foxhall since 1985 and I can’t remember the atmosphere being as good We won the cup and almost (should have ) won the league I love to win a trophy and the cup final night was epic….. however I also like to enjoy watching Not sure how this fits 1. Emil 2. ? 3.King 4. ? 5. Doyle 6. Rew 7. Dan Thompson What does that leave? Is there room for Brennan or one of the Cook brothers ….. even if this means Rew going to 2 or 4 Got to say wouldn’t want Erik back …. Nice guy but so far off it and looks hesitant in races
  14. Some over confidence from Poole fans in some places 49-41 in the league meeting where Rowe got 6 + 1 and Scunthorpe got 8 from Clegg and Mountain 45-45 in the play offs where Rowe again got 6 + 1 but Scunthorpe got 15 from Kemp and Mountain with Lambert and Palm Toft having poor nights R/R for Rowe makes Poole weaker but they can use Tac Sub in the up i believe I doubt Douglas and Kemp will get 30 again but Douglas in 12 races at Poole has got 35 out of 36 points A lot depends on how Lambert and Palm Toft go if they can get 12 or 13 between them then this will be close Douglas 15 maybe from 6 Mountain 3 Lambert 6 Allen 7 Palm Toft 5 Kemp 7 Ablitt 1 Thats 44 and broken down like that looks possible Poole are favourites without question but this could be close
  15. You go there end of September and win by 10 You go there today same team and lose by 4 Is that not a drop in form?
