Against all the odds after losing our number one in heat one, the rest of the boys rallied in difficult conditions to pick up the three points. Well done to the whole team. Now to sort out the track. Ever thought about doing stand-up comedy ? 1 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BWitcher 12,453 Posted June 17, 2019 (edited) Bad as tonight has been for Wolves, Luke Becker has been excellent again and Heat 14 may yet prove to be a massive turning point in the season with the ride by Morris. Edited June 17, 2019 by BWitcher 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have watched a few heats whilst in-between races at Swindon. Also, we’ve been constantly told that the dust was because of midday meetings, can someone explain to me why you’ve dust & a blue groove tonight? No excuses. From the feedback I’m getting from someone who is at Swindon, it ain’t much better there. Bumps everywhere 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

acef 795 Posted June 17, 2019 At the end of the day I’m big enough and ambiguous enough to not make this just about Poole. A lot on here to just want to pop off at Poole, well because it’s poole. There are a number of tracks in the uk that just need sorting out and Poole happens to be one of them. Swindon tonight sounds equally as bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Col 850 Posted June 17, 2019 Did Grizzly Adams just describe tonight's result as "reasonable"? Dreadful is closer to the truth. Poole without a #1 & a reserve that doesn't look close to scoring. Opportunity missed. Becker is the only Wolf who can be happy with his evening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Record being broken means nothing. Im not there, but as I said, the feedback I’ve had is that the track was bumpy and Fricke essentially retired in heat 15 because of it. A couple of other riders as well almost getting off. Like I said, I’m not there but I trust the judgment of the person who is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Speedtiger 327 Posted June 17, 2019 ....and people wonder why the sport is at rock bottom! Rubbish meeting, rubbish track and a rubbishhole of a stadium and all played out on TV...you couldn’t make it up! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted June 17, 2019 Very easy in the end. Wolves poor to be honest. Not a good meeting and lets all hope the upcoming track improvements get the track back to where it was before. Special mention to Klindt who was sensational. Hope Jack is OK. Another mention to Becker who was good value and deserved heat 15. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Let’s hope. This team is built now clearly to be in form for the play offs. I have huge doubts however that may even happen. 2 minutes ago, Col said: Did Grizzly Adams just describe tonight's result as "reasonable"? Dreadful is closer to the truth.

ytsejam 312 Posted June 17, 2019 What an embarrassment of a meeting that was!.... THREE position passes all night and no lead changes whatsoever. Utter and complete rubbish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Was the best it's been this season. Your riders were just plop bar Fricke who was class. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
