What and saddle the likes of Smolinski and Jepsen Jensen with 9.00 figures?! Because thats fair isnt it. 

Should be absolutely no such ruling. Any Gp rider with an old average should be allowed to return on that figure and any newcomer, ie Vaculik, should be given a fair assessed figure. 

The likes of Tai and Zagar should of been allowed back in on their old figures. Its absolutely pathetic how they aren’t. 

Ok, you can extend the period to allow these riders to return.

My point was that the ruling is clearly ambiguous when it shouldn’t be.

These are supposed to be speedway people but they just don’t have the brain capacity to think things through and come up with a proper solution.

It happens every year, so it’s not bad luck they are just incompetent.

I have never liked Ford I am a Poole fan have been since 90's, the race jackets look sh1te they don't look like they fit some riders and the design why not don an old pirates design for the anniversary it makes more sense.

Also I don't understand why they would try and host such a big meeting in March with the unpredictable weather why not in the summer months its brain dead.

Try putting that field together when the season is in full swing

Yes its ok because its been sanctioned. Kildemand has never been a gp rider. Just a reserve last year who got rounds through injuries.

We don't know who applies. Nothing has been released. Unless you have the link to confirm it of course.

Why mate ?. Matt tries his heart out for the club, eh the race suits/ Bibs is a cost cutting measure that all clubs will have to make, except matt has been upfront and acknowledged the fact.. As for the 10k, Matt would never had stumped it up could he not afford to pay it, As for the meeting, the track was very RACEABLE, not rideable, untill late after noon when steady rain that was expected materialised, Up to that point, Glyn had put NO water on the track, it didnt need it, and would have rode very well and the rain  that was expected turned up. Matt predictably was not to pleased, its not his fault, the forcast was for light rain and the meeting could have gone ahead, but the forcast was dire and the rain contary to the forcast got heavier,  and the right decision was made so people didnt come in and pay then all concerned had the hassle of refunds.

The track was raceable but not rideable... how is that possible? Genius.

Because some of you dont know the difference. Rideable means you can just ride it causiously, raceable means you can race on it. thats your bedtime lesson. night night...

I've heard of it being rideable but not raceable.... but never raceable but not rideable. Surely if you're racing on it, you are riding on it??

Clearly your confusing your self. If its RIDABLE then you just ride the track, if its RACEABLE that means you can race on it. Theres a difference ask Garry may. He'l put you straight.. But make sure you write this down as ive written it, otherwise he might not understand you.

So if they can race on the track.... are they not riding on it?

Starry, you wrote it the other way round in your original post.

You're right! 

That's the only problem.

Not the dwindling crowds year on year. Of course, we were always told, other clubs need to promote like good ol Matt does at Poole, why he gets packed crowds every week... except, as predicted by many, he no longer does. Now Poole can't even afford racesuits.

 

None so blind as those who do not wish to see unfortunately. 'Nothing to see here' because eyes are closed and fingers are in ears while singing 'la la la la la'.
