spt82 86 Posted November 4, 2021 4 minutes ago, W9 Lion said: Why would any TM win the toss holding a ten point advantage take gate choices in heat 15, incredible call. Had to be 1 n 3 all night long. But then again when Cami has been in charge they have only won the pairs if my memory serves correctly. As the Big Man himself would say FTT! But Poole took 2 & 4 so Glasgow did effectively get 1 & 3, and its the captains that do the toss not the team manager, so not Calamities fault in this case. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Endeavour 681 Posted November 4, 2021 1 minute ago, GS550 said: You say that but its been shown to backfire as well when the better gate(s) early on hasn't produced the expected heat advantage or early edge, and then its backfired at Heat 15 squeaky bum time when the other team has had the gates advantage. I lost count of the number of times that happened in the televised matches this season. A case of "damned if you do, damned if you don't". If you ask me it wouldn't have mattered tonight either way. Can see your reasoning but at heat 1 the gate choice is relevant. If you opt for last heat you don’t know if it will be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why let another team benefit from the 2 point increase Jensen is gonna make next season? Should be first on the team sheet as far as I'm concerned. And an out and out racer to boot.

Mike0310 660 Posted November 4, 2021 I for one have been critical of Poole sometimes this season but I would just like to say well done you totally deserve your success good job.but like us with pedersen and yourselves with Rory selfishly you think why are you retiring your still so good but they are and I would like to say to Rory good luck with your racing retirement you have been a great asset to British speedway and I wish you all the luck for the future and I’m glad you went out on a high.right now let’s look forward to next year and who can knock those pirates of top spot lol .

Agree with you I would have Sam in a heartbeat boy is box office when he is on it, just a slight niggle about him upping it next season. But if he returns I would be happy with that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I admire your optimism but a guy whose scored 0 in his last 2 away meetings is not going to have a near 8 point average next season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
