Baldyman 6,243 Posted May 14, 2019 Kurtz and Holder have usually been dump at Foxhall in the past,, klindt has been both good and bad,,, same as josh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted May 14, 2019 Shame we have guests. Brady flying at the mo and Klindt when he gates is virtually untouchable. Would rather our proper team than guests but nothing can be done about it. It’s practice for the champs though for when we come for the league points. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would rather our proper team than guests but nothing can be done about it. It’s practice for the champs though for when we come for the league points. With the guests quite clearly improving Poole ( Brady hasnt scored more than 6 in his last 3 matches at Foxhall in league matches and Klindt got 8 last season in the lower league when he was directly up against Scott who got 12 + 1) this should be closer than i thought it might be You have Nicholls a track expert likely to score more than Klindt would have and now Tobi who got 3 wins from 5 rides at Foxhall (including and unfortunate last place) and only a man with blinkered vision would believe Poole were weaker. Add in Worrall and Covatti and this could be a troublesome meeting for the team that are currently top of the table and the team that currently set the benchmark for a team like Poole to attain. Poole will no doubt be looking to keep it close so that they may have some hope in the league match, though with their own riders returning instead of a 'horses for courses' approach to this meeting, it may be tougher than what this meeting will be. As we all know the early stages of a league can mean nothing come play off time when i would expect Poole to have strengthened by the time the season comes to the business end rather than at the moment just being a side that would be hopeful of squeezing into the top 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lisa-colette 6,018 Posted May 14, 2019 Whilst you always want/prefer to have your whole team there. Scott and TM prob the best you could get, I would say slightly stronger. As for the team manager debate, even when Neil is having a bad day still better than Hawkins! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you are waiting for speedway to become a serious sport, I'd stop going. I go in the hope of seeing a close meeting with some decent racing. Sometimes i get this, but mostly i don't!
