Add to that no money from TV and BT wanting to show us at every opportunity also added to the attendances. We were moaning a couple of seasons ago about there being only 9 teams. The league should never have run with 7. A change should have been made last winter. It will be a very sad day if Middlo is calling it quits. Best manager the club has ever had and impossible to replace a speedway man with a wealth of experience. It was £20000 the other day Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It could well be a way for Ford to try and get what he wants. Either to force the sale the club or change race nights. How do we know if the poll result to drop down is genuine. It night be made up to ad weight to Ford saying he's dropping down, making some think it's serious enough to act. I hope Buster don't buy them, it will affect Lynn again no doubt.. If he wants to move down then let him do it I say. I agree! I believe Matt wants top league Speedway BUT with Wednesday night home meetings just playing games to get there......... Thuth is the whole of G.B. speedway is in a mess with the double ups & downs etc, etc, needs a complete re-think, unfortunately it will never happen. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Woffy 2 Posted October 17, 2019 Pathetic asking for Wednesday race nights get a grip! Poole are not bigger than the sport to dictate when they race! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Buster cannot give Poole Weds nights. The only way we can have Weds, is CL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
