KFC is better choice

.Just heading home after comfortable win at Oxford. Going to Redcar tomorrow to see friends up north and knowledgeable fans at meeting.Another breakfast in Mc donalds

What’s the size of this pond as I need one

Yes it is a business decision to ride in the lower tier where the club gets as much revenue as the top tier but the costs are less, this is partly why the top division only has 6 teams, it must be very difficult to afford top riders especially when you dont get big crowds every week.In football you have to invest massively if you intend to stay in the top division once promoted or you get relegated.

Now then do I need to step in

After looking into this further I now believe the referee made a mistake . He could not have noticed Grmek had accidentally detached his kill switch otherwise he should not have started the race with a dead bike at the start. Once he started the race and Grmek wheeled his bike off the track it should have been treated as a retirement due to mechanical failure. I actually raised the kill switch issue through the open door of the refs box at the time, the refs reply was that Ben Barker had already committed an earlier tyre warming offence. Once he started the race I believe Grmek should have been excluded/ disqualified also.

What I don't agree with is why someone has to be excluded, if the incident happened on the first bend it would have been all four back. As it was the first lap, there could be a certain amount of leniency in the rules for this type of incident where no one is really at fault.

Meeting off.

Poole were never a losing team in the top decision. Far from it. A club that dictates to the sport it competes in , the terms and conditions, the when and where they will or won’t operate in , makes a mockery of it all in my opinion. Business ambition is obviously number 1. Sporting ambition doesn’t come into it. Like a promoted team in football refusing to be promoted because they’ll win more matches in the lower division so more fans will attend. Suppose I’m naive to want meaningful relevant competition.

Poole will get as much national publicity, or financial prize, for winning tier two, as whichever team wins the top tier... The difference being they will have laid out a lot less.. Before the start of this season, their promoters did say crowds had dropped last year, so maybe there could be a bit of "winning fatigue" setting in and fans will pick and choose their meetings depending on the opposition... However. They did also say though that they were going to ramp up their local promotion, and marketing, plus target sponsor recruitment as they felt lots of opportunities existed... Poole fans have shown a winning team keeps them attending, with a losing team, impacting crowds.. No point in spending six figures more, and "maybe" being successful, when you can spend six figures less and, whilst never guaranteeing success, give yourself really good odds...

A pond of mediocrity. Top marks for coming top of it .

As he lives in Poole or thereabouts i would have thought someone would give him a lift.

A bigger pond than the Premiership.

Big fish small pond comes to mind. At least Bayern’s situation isn’t a choice unlike poole’s

Silly season started early I see. Both Bayern’s and Poole’s supporters love them winning. That’s why they both attract relatively big crowds.

Poole, the Bayern Munich of the championship. Winners of everything in that league before the season even starts. Must be so exciting for their customers..

Hmm, not so sure, Leicester have always been a bit dodgy on a wet home track, we'll never know now. Hopefully DT will be back for the re-staging though.

Rain or no rain, I would imagine this is a home banker whenever it is run.

As someone who was also following Vuolas' meetings on the continent I would keep in mind that that was his first meeting back after a crash at the end of April, (which was not his fault) 🤔 Got a lot of time for Antti and would have liked to have seen him back in the Championship this year, genuinely thought he would be at Scunthorpe tbh. (Sorry for the random late reply to this comment, only just made an account on here and I like Worky so was having a scroll through all the different pages lol).

RR for Riss and most likely will need a replacement for Killeen after a big crash tonight.

They also said about Will might hurt his hand. I wouldn't have thought so. Why, did you want his autograph?
