old bob at herne bay 828 Posted October 8, 2019 Before blaming the riders, let’s remember WHY this is a “pointless” meeting .... the failure of the Poole promotion to run the meeting in a timely manner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

therefused 818 Posted October 8, 2019 What a joke this is. Obviously all these meetings should be run early in the season, before the semi final/final. I dont know the BSPA dont do a bit of marketing around having all cup meetings on the same night across the country. Could put a nice spin on it with it being cup week, keeping track of whos going to qualify etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You would of thought they would of had a gap for it before now. They dumped their agreed staging of the British Youth Championship, maybe they could of fitted a meeting in it's place maybe ? The Stars ...….. Lambo RR, Aarino, Riss, Scotty, Cookie, Kerr, Ostergaard 60-30. Poor crowd and big points money. Far cry from a play off final bumper crowd.

Bagpuss 10,778 Posted October 8, 2019 Can’t imagine Riss, Nicholls and Cook busting too many guts for this with far bigger fish to fry later in the week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At the meeting their own team is in, and the meeting that another team has borrowed them for.... Maybe though these two teams could get drawn to race against each other and certain riders then ride for both? The likes of Scott, Bomber and Rory could have a good week considering how many teams they represent over a season... They could get knocked out in the first round, and the second round, and then go on to be a runner up and a winner in the final.... Setting off for Poole in a minute, don't want to be at the back of the queue to get in.. Although I don't want to get there too early either... As I may end up riding for one of the teams.!!!
