Arch Stanton 2,247 Posted September 15, 2019 Not sure Baldyman. Our riders seem to have run in to a bit of poor form for their Championship clubs recently. Hopefully saving their best for us! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baldyman 6,243 Posted September 15, 2019 Is it me,,, as when I'm positive others are negative, but when I'm negative others are positive. You may be right, i don't follow what the riders do for other teams. I still fancy us for a win. Poole just need ruffling up a bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Let em win 50-40 tonight so they win the league pick us and then return in a couple of weeks and win 46-44 the underdog tag will suit our boys no end, just like early season! Still a big ask but I think people are silly to be completely writing us off in the playoffs, you never know what might happen! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If Ipswich had limped into the PO’s without changes I’d have said they would be rank outsiders however by bringing in a quality number one it would be foolish to write them off. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baldyman 6,243 Posted September 17, 2019 . If back at Poole next week, they need to move Heeps away from 2, we need a rider that can win heat 8 at Poole, poss Lawson at 2. That's just me though, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Falcon1983 557 Posted September 19, 2019 They really need to make it a 12 team top league next year and ride 11 home & away with some form of cup competition as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skidder1 7,634 Posted September 19, 2019 (edited) What is this fixation with a 12 team top league? None of the other main European leagues have as many as 12 teams. 8-10 would be good though, but then its all down to what level ie points limit, is set?! If the top league sticks with Monday/Thursday as priority nights then it indicates they still want to attract riders that also ride in Europe on the other nights and the bigger the league the more they will need those riders. I don't mean the really top guys - those days are gone until the Polish bubble bursts - but Polish 2nd strings/reserves,Swedish, Danish, Czechs etc and of course the Aussies will still be very much in demand Edited September 19, 2019 by Skidder1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
