Sunliner 3 Posted November 17, 2019 Nothing close if this team were to ride against the Poole team this past season.Probably get reasonable racing in this league with this team as all riders will be of similar standard,premier league reserves King and Worrall apart or is that being to harsh.Still if Matt can't find a buyer this will save speedway at Wimborne road but will the fans who we are told voted for this league turn up and support it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Definitely - as long as there is no price increase!! Lets wait and see who the 3rd heat leader is first!!! Incidentally the Poole R.E.F. (Riders Equipment Fund) hold their first Winter quiz night and forum on Wednesday 20th November with Co-Promoter Danny Ford in attendance to update fans following the AGM. - maybe even a rider announcement or 2?

STEVEHOLS54 380 Posted November 17, 2019 Interesting little question from Ragdoll on the Glasgow thread. Hypothetical question......If Nicolai Klindt was to change his mind and ride in the Championship this year, what average would he come in on? Would it be a conversion of this year’s Premiership average of 7.43......or his 2018 Championship average which was 6.94? Anyone know the answer ??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Knightime 33 Posted November 17, 2019 Thinking about a farewell meeting for Bjarne Poole (Europe) vs Poole (Rest of the World) (not riding order and literally the first 16 that came to mind - plenty of others I'm sure) Europe - M Janowski, P Pawlicki, N Klindt, L Madsen, B Pederson, C Harris, H Andersen, V Milic ROW - J Doyle, C Holder, G Hancock, J Holder, B Kurtz, T Bachelor, J Grajczonek, R Tungate Will never happen - but it puts the move to the Championship in perspective Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, if I was a Poole fan and I had to pay the same price or even a £1 less than last season for that line up, or anything similar, me and speedway in the UK would be done. I cannot believe that Poole fans will be turning out in their hundreds let alone thousands to see a line up like that. I think Poole will regret the next two seasons. Just my opinion. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
poolebolton 464 Posted November 17, 2019 This team going around isn’t our team. For one Gino isn’t coming over so that’s one. The 4 we have I’m happy with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It baffles me when people make judgements when no one has been announced! Plus staying away on a permanent basis only means the club would be lost. Surely if the racing is good does it matter who the riders are? I think the standard in the CL is more level than in the PL, so should be close. 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
