  1. Past hour
  2. Two things from last night's meeting, firstly Jordan looked a sad figure in the pits watching his replacement having a brilliant night's racing, and secondly I am sad the Birmingham won't be back next season, I can honestly say ,once again, they are the nicest club to visit us at Foxhall.
  3. You're actually discussing them riding for other clubs so doesn't affect Poole does it?
  4. Wouldn’t be Doyle if he didn’t do that! On the floor twice and still got 10+1 😂 he makes me laugh sometimes
  5. I think you'll find our matches are scheduled to finish 1st Sept, so hardly b*ggering anything
  6. What a shock. Lets all just hope Cookie is doing well 😂
  7. I have a feeling Simon Lambert will be released from Scunthorpe soon
  8. Doyle really enjoying Poland and topping up the bank account at the moment whilst running ZZ and getting a tactical sub for 7 rides ! Tonight a lot closer than I anticipated.
  9. Give Kerr credit, it will come back and bite you on the arse.
  10. Instead of speculation perhaps the authorities should canvas those riders who are prepared to commit to riding in the UK first and foremost and calculate how many riders are available to ride every week on a race night that suits a UK club, not Poland or any other European league fixture list. Reward those riders who are willing to make a go of it in the UK by guaranteeing x number of meetings based on the commitment to ride. On the basis of the foregoing, determine the make up of teams, be it five, six or seven riders per team. Then look at whether it works on one home and away or two home and away or a mix with 4TT plus league racing. Also have a Season long individual UK championship with rounds held at every track and a grand finale at say Bellevue one year then Glasgow the Poole etc, share it around. The idea is build for the future on what you know you have not the uncertainty that prevails today where it is a case of finger in the air and hope. True speedway followers will be happy with competitive racing week in week out, others who crave the worlds top riders will follow them through the many individual tournaments be it a GP or Euro championship or Poland where in the case of the latter money seems no object when it comes to enticing the top riders. Speedway UK cannot compete with any European racing partly because of Brexit but also it races on a night when riders can earn some pocket money here because no other league is daft enough to pick Monday as a race night and I suspect that most who ride in Poland etc do not keep the best equipment in the UK so you are probably not seeing the riders at their most competitive. Unfortunately all those on here who could make up a committee that could give some direction and work with the promoters to get the sport back to where it should be would be largely ignored yet they are the same people who week in week out put money into the clubs by crossing the threshold of the turnstiles and helping keep the sport going. A message to those in charge, engage with your punters.
  11. Thanks for your honesty Paul to come on here and tell us what's happening that the ordinary Brum follower(any speedway follower tbh) isn't told.As I said in another post on this forum that you're one of the good guys at Brum(just a pity we can't say that about others involved at Brum with the lies etc)😉My apologies for not replying to your pm btw.
  12. As a Poole win would assist Workington's play off aspirations I would have to question the efforts of Redcar's guests tonight. What a sport! 🫣
  13. If Redcar manage to win this they will have done magnificently To have 2 riders not there whose replacements are much weaker and to be this close is huge Kerr and Starke doing well for Poole …. Lawson should be sacked for this performance
  14. Lambert should of gone weeks ago Godfrey to loyal or is it if he got rid would he pay the wages for a replacement Fans aren't going to keep supporting a team which can win home or away I know I'm not if Lamberts still in the team next week we won't be
  15. Another Cook has just become available 🤔
  16. I have a feeling Simon Lambert will be released from Scunthorpe soon
  17. All square but Rocketman struggling tonight. Just not on it. With Redcar having King and Wright in 13 and 15 it’s not looking great. Gate 2 great but gate 4 dreadful.
  18. You have to feel sorry for the Bears. No Riss. Replaced by Vuolas. No comparison. Then Hook for Mulford once again not really a good choice, The Bears still hanging there. Pirates get to ride aganst the bears with two weak guests. Lucky Pirates!!
  19. What's Finnish for throttle jockey?
  20. Any details of the junior meeting afterwards please?
