Bald Bloke 3,286 Posted October 10, 2018 Morris scored 7 and shouldn't of been there, and yes I did say it before a wheel was turned. However he scored 7 for Kurtz. Lynn scored 6 points for NKI and MPT.. Well done Poole 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iwright71 206 Posted October 10, 2018 Well done to Poole Pirates on winning the weakest top division title ever. The quality of the speedway in the Grand Final shows why British speedway is on its knees, the product is awful. Good luck to Matt Ford trying to sell Poole on the back of that, no wonder he can't wait to get out before his business is worth nothing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

old bob at herne bay 828 Posted October 10, 2018 What are you buying exactly ??? A tractor with a grader, a set of starting tapes, coloured lights, flags, an air fence and safety fence anda little "track material" and some pot holes ? The rider "assets" have little value as they are all guns for hire and ride where they please. I suppose Mr Ford will take the trophy cabinet with all his pots ! You wouldn't even be guaranteed which division of racing you might be taking part in , or more importantly which race night you might have to race your home meetings. Hardly a growth business ... I doubt Dragons Den woudl take it on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

May as well give a junior a ride if thats the best alternative imo! More like it’s a shame there aren’t more options to use from for guesting, On paper Howarth for MPT was at least a like for like but Iversen on that average was irreplaceable. No disrespect intended on Ellis but he could never have been expected to remotely equal what Iversen would have likely scored. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MPT would of scored 6 -7 from 4 and NKI would of scored a lot more than 3. Morris scored 7. Like for like. Edited October 10, 2018 by Bald Bloke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trotter65 57 Posted October 10, 2018 Well that was a terrible meeting racing wise...not really seen racing at King's Lynn since my brother in law rode there and I saw it every week for a season and the racing that year from Henka and Loram and Brhel at times was unreal...that was a shadow of that if that's what it's like now....crowd looked decent though...

I think the first leg heat 12 decision was nullified by the second leg heat 3 where the KL rider decided to ride around on the infield... And of course the refereeing was first class tonight, if you were a KL supporter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
