bigcatdiary 3,165 Posted June 17, 2019 Not a good meeting Steve It was complete and utter pants from start to finish, the track is an absolute shambles and it’s clear their own fans have had enough. Its not hard to see why Poole are struggling but as others have said the management just care about winning nothing else, racing etc is non existent. A poor advert for the sport and BT shouldn’t show anymore matches from there until it’s significantly improved, certainly not a good advert for fans to travel and watch that dross. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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. Absolute BS. Never heard so much rubbish spoken on here. Swindon track was plop against Poole no doubt. Not tonight. Now Poole and Wolves can have their thread back! Sorry! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can vouch for that. Its a legitimate opinion and I don’t expect Swindon fans to agree Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cityrebel 2,960 Posted June 17, 2019 Poole really are the Manchester United of speedway, a total shambles. Sort the track out before someone gets seriously hurt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bald Bloke 3,286 Posted June 17, 2019 (edited) Kelv made more than a few digs at the track tonight. Lets see if the latest "major track work will take place" works, and if it eventually happens, I hope it works for UK speedways sake.

I am not in the country so can’t pop down to take a look but from what I can gather proper heavy equipment is being bought in and fresh new shale laid. Guess we will find out if it’s an improvement next home meeting. As for tonight, a good solid win against a full strength Wolves team who have gone backwards bringing in Thorssell and Morris. Should have kept their other 1-7. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
