Kemp is probably one of the most over rated British riders for a long time. 

By whom?

I think your being slightly unfair on Kemp, yes he might not have kicked on as much as people thought he would but he's only what 18/19? Give him another couple of seasons if he's still floating around on a 3+ average then I think you'll have more of an argument.

Hasn't really lived up to peoples expectations of him , hes had 2 full seasons of Championship racing under his belt and hes not improved that much as yet, maybe initially over hyped and put under to much pressure to fulfill his potential and either he or those managing him have not given or applied the advice given  , getting away from Ipswich for next season may help him to move forward and return to them a much better rider

2022 is a make or break season for him.

At 19-years-old it's hardly a "make or break season for him". Look at John Louis, Craig Cook and a whole host of others who entered the sport late. At least wait until he's 23 or so before writing him off as a lower or middle order rider.

Liked your previous post, as it was funny, but can't work out why you have become aggressive towards Steve ?

Must agree. I usually find Steve's posts interesting and he invariably has something worth saying. His reports on matches and his summing up of riders performances are always worth reading as was the blog re. his trip to Glasgow for the Playoff Final.

Not sure that's true Bassoon. Young Kemp must be a talent for the Pole's to be interested. Guessing at the moment he rides big tracks in Poland better than the smaller and perhaps more technical tracks in the UK. that's strange as Ive seen him ride for Kent and Mildenhall, did he also ride for Kent?

Would take him at Edinburgh.

I think if Kemp has eyes on the top of the sport this is a big season for him - I don’t think it’s unfair to suggest that. He’s quite a bit behind Brennan for example.

What average is Kemp on? As clearly Newman has had his massively reduced due to the Eastbourne matches being removed.

Tbf they didn't say 'all', they said 'a lot'. Which is amusing as doubt they even know 'a lot' of Poole fans. Even if you count all the Poole fans on here and on social media, it probably equates to 5% of all Poole fans, so their statement is pretty laughable imo.

quite right lisa 95%of poole fans have never heard of shovler,skidder ,arthur,poole keith etc etc were just a group of people with plenty of time to spare to mess about on the old interweb ! ive met and spoke to many visiting fans (mainly cause im always there very early and visiting fans tend to arrive early)ive always enjoyed a chat and havent met a single away fan with a derogatory viewof the poole fans.

When we were down for the final, we were well recieved by the Poole fans, I do think that some were shocked when we congratulated them on the pirates win, we had a fab time despite being defeated
