aljack 38 Posted August 19, 2012 Beautiful morning . We are due some rain later , but it doesn't seem to be as threatening to the meeting as what was forecast yesterday . So all systems go for what should be an interesting meeting . What was the problem with Taylor Poole at Workington last night ? Is he struggling for fitness after his long lay-off ? Taylor has an average of 6.90 on coming back from injury and due to the experienced riders in the Witches team totally underperforming he found himself at no1. Taylor is a super lad who listens to advice and has a great future but a no1 he aint and should never have found himself there its a disgrace and his form has suffered accordingly. Going to guess at tommy fenwick for the witches at reserve Or tommy no-hope Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baldyman 6,243 Posted August 19, 2012 Well done to the lad for giving it a go, apparently he only sat on a bike for the first time 10 months ago. The bigger question is, was he our best option? Maybe he was as i have not looked. I take it Taylor will be at reserve next month? Good luck to Glasgow in finding a cash injection. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lucifer sam 3,953 Posted August 19, 2012 (edited) Or tommy no-hope What a pathetic comment, although I wouldn't expect anything else from a pathetic poster. I would imagine the rest of the Ipswich fans, being a highly reasonable bunch, are thoroughly ashamed of you. All the best Rob Edited August 19, 2012 by lucifer sam 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MD 1,307 Posted August 19, 2012 The weather ruined this one, despite only starting at 3pm, it never stopped and the track became worse as the meeting wore on. Taylor Poole looked fairly poor, perhaps not even fit although the lovely Christina in the box gave him every help possible with 3 goes at ht5, despite having fallen on his own at the first running. Tungate too didn't look too clever in his first ride, although then being withdrawn with sore baws you can't really blame him! Its another 3 points on the board for Glasgow if anything. Interesting news during the match that an offer was made for the club last week, but not accepted. Glasgow also seem to have to find a significant amount of money by the end of the month to pay back creditors for the track alterations last year. Could be a long month!

Paulco 7,074 Posted August 19, 2012 Shame the rain ruined this a spectacle for the small crowd that braved the elements . But as usual for rain affected meetings , it was a non-event . Couldn't criticise any of the riders as they all had a go , but the track grew increasingly difficult and it was no surprise when it got stopped after heat 12 . Mr Tungate will be feeling a bit delicate for a few days going by the way he was bouncing up and down during heat 4 , the 2nd bend clearly gave him great difficulty to negotiate . Three points was the only consilation on another day of financial doom and gloom facing our club . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The rain started around an hour before the meeting was due to start and gradually got heavier until the premature end at the end of heat 12 . Tommy was on the pace in heat 2 , which is probably the best yardstick on which to judge the young lad on . A difficult day for all the riders , but i hope the young lad forges a career in the sport . 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lioness 1,452 Posted August 19, 2012 Or tommy no-hope Tommy is a young lad who has not long started out in the sport and has impressed those who have actually seen him - you know, watched him actually ride one of those speedway bikes - especially given the short length of time he has been riding. Speaks volumes for Tommy that fans from all the northern clubs whose tracks he has ridden at have felt strongly enough to jump in to defend him. Your pathetic little attempted 'jibe' is, at best, ignorant. Some of us prefer to encourage youngsters with promise, after all they are the future of the sport and have something to offer it 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
