Swindon and Wolves were built to 42.5 and haven’t been able to change because they chose well and have done well. Poole chose a crap team, have made five changes, wheeling and dealing and dropping riders who have improved their averages, and now have one built to 46.5. Swindon and Wolves should now be allowed to build to 46.5. #Poole46.5 How did Swindle get on at Somerset on Wednesday??.....ooooooppppppsss another whooping .....glug glug glug..

Skidder1 7,632 Posted August 3, 2018 8 hours ago, DC2 said: 46.5 is the total of your current team’s average from the start of year greensheets. While it may be acceptable to allow a rubbish team to continually rebuild to 42.5 on rolling averages, it should also be acceptable for any team that has retained its original seven to rebuild to the starting average that the rubbish team has now assembled (on the proviso that they cannot build to more than Poole’s 46.5 by using only riders that have improved their averages). That would be fair. Swindon, for example, could take their team’s original starting average of 42.24, take out Mitchell Davey’s average of 2.31 (as Smith was an injury replacement), leaving 39.93 and replace Smith with another rider with an original starting average of 46.5 - 39.93 = 6.57 (provided he has not increased it beyond 6.57). So, to equal what Poole have done, Swindon should be allowed to replace Smith with Milik, Michelsen, Lahti, Kennett, Hougard, Barker or Pieszczek That would be fair. #Poole46.5 keep the campaign going lads. It might be more credible if you got your averages right 'cos the current 1-7 certainly did not add up to 46.anything at the start of the season!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However, I know most of the mechanics and can confirm it wasn’t any of them. I can also confirm it wasn’t Matthew Ford as he doesn’t get his hands dirty. Also the oil on the track was too dirty to be speedway engine oil. Agree. No way was it out of a speedway engine. Way to black. They hold less than 1 litre and are changed after around 4-5 races at a guess. That oil on the track was a few gallons I would say. Ford is missing a trick chucking oil over the track 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I personally know and have worked with one of the “new owners” and, I can tell you the contract he has in place will be as tight as a drum and he will only pay for what he needs in terms of access etc. Really, id want more access than that if you have a stadium where its used for bugger all else.. Not sure i would believe that.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I'm sure Poole's riders will say exactly what they are told to in a press conference You are right, I wasn't there, I wouldn't put money into your promoter's pocket if his track was the last one on earth. Oh no if the track is crap, Brady will say so!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
