Well, like you Lisa Collette, I think that the site was closed down, mainly due to the fact that some of the posters were "not a good influence" on the club and were painting a bad picture. I reckon you guys know who you were!!!!!! I don't have to mention names. Personally, travelling down from Southampton each week, the forum was good for weather forecasts/conditions and team news. Shame it had to go.

Fact Shovlar......
Oh and many Poole fans on here are happy with Ellis....bye troll
What is it with you two - the Gavan and Shovlar show. I don't regularly log on to this site, but I do like to get the updates on team selection etc. It's always good to read people's varying opinions, factual or not. I have an opinion on most things, but I certainly do not reply with personal or slanderous quips that are designed to upset people. It's little wonder that anyone is banned from the site for overstepping the mark. To both of you, I'm sure we are interested in your remarks and opinions on SPEEDWAY. I'm not interested in slurs or personal insults. If you want to do that, go onto Facebook or whatever and leave this dedicated sport to the people who love and enjoy Speedway for what it is/or isn't

He has progressed from a talent youngster into a world class riders. His attitude and behaviour has been a credit to him and the club. Leading by example, he is now a true number 1 rider .
And they're not many of them about....
Well, not many people overtake Jason Doyle on the final bend in heat 15, which brings me to my point. WE'VE GOT BOMBER - ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE

Still cannot understand why we are so bad around Somerset, especially as our Nos 1 and 2 used to race there. Over the 2 legs, Somerset still massive favourites for me

Possibly you are right. His average will make him quite attractive, but Bomber would be first on my list.

Or maybe it's a bit of both.
Would rather have Woryna at reserve!!!!!!!!!!

Looks like a Stars/Rebels final to me. We've just got too many riders under performing and we won't win anything without a number 1.

This late in the season it's all about gamesmanship, tactics, and Poole certainly don't want Somerset out of all the other Play-Off teams.

Really Daniel!!!!! Can you imagine the outrage on here, if a Poole fan even suggested it, let alone if it actually happened.

10 hours ago, Bagpuss said:For me it’s pretty simple, we have had two hidings at your place this season but have won at Belle Vue and drawn at Somerset, two tracks which suit us much better. I believe we can beat the Rebels and Aces over two legs but have a much smaller chance against Poole. Therefore I believe we need to finish top, pick Belle Vue and hope that we beat them and Somerset beat Poole.
Nobody is being underestimated.
Can't see us beating Somerset over 2 legs, they are too good around Wimborne Rd, second in line would be Belle Vue and then probably our best bet would be Lyn, who always seem to struggle at our place.

Top of the league!
As a result of last week's fiasco, and the added chance of a few drops of rain, we decided to save our £30 and watch it on BT at home. I thought it was a pretty good advert for Speedway in general, with the final result being decided in the last heat. Spills, thrills and overtaking. In my effort to try to re-enact the "Speedway" experience, at half time, I asked my mate if he wanted something to eat. He said that he would prefer a hot dog, so after popping out in to my "Gourmet" kitchen, unfortunately, I had to give him the news that I didn't have any hot dog rolls, or onions. Just like actually being at the meeting eh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

6 minutes ago, Orbiter said:Something really weird going on there, club statement should be issued to clarify.
Absolutely disgraceful!!!!! Whatever is going on at Poole. First of all, the normal disappointment with the first bend "Gourmet" burger van, (No hot dog rolls), but that's for another thread and then the Coup de grace, the postponement. Firstly, everyone in the stadium could see the rain coming, so Why????? did we have an interval. When it did come, it lasted about 5 minutes. To be honest, the track looked in better nick after the shower and with a bit of grading, I'm sure would have produced some good racing. We travel down from Southampton and sadly, will stay at home on Monday. This is NOT the publicity that Poole, or more importantly, Speedway needs at this, or any other time.
From one very disgruntled and disillusioned supporter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As a rearranged fixture, I suppose it was something that Poole and Leicester were happy with.
I'm just waiting for the accusation of "cheating" by arranging a meeting on a Thursday.

CONGRATULATIONS Sid, Best comment I've read on here for a long time, by far. The sport is in decline as it is, without those who claim to love the sport most, fighting to drive the last nail in. I have no problem at all with constructive criticism, even against Poole, but most of it is unfounded, unwarranted, untrue, hyperthetical and born out of sheer jealousy, usually in the direction of Matt Ford and his Pirates.

Firstly, and most importantly, I am not your "boy". Secondly, I think you mean, Don't need to prove anything. Finally, you need to be very careful when throwing around empty and unfounded threats, that have no substance or concrete evidence. So, either get your facts right, or, don't bother posting.

Your constant accusations of cheating and average manipulation, indicate that you have concrete proof. I would, therefore, be very interested to read your evidence and let the visitors of this Forum make their own judgement.

Starman, this forum is all about opinions and Gavan is quite entitled to his. He is quite right, we do need a number 1. Unfortunately, our Nos `1,3,5 have no chance of a 5 race maximum, in their present form, unlike, for instance, Wolves who have Thorssell, Schlein and Masters who are capable of going through the card, especially at home. Forums are open for debate from all fans of Speedway. I am sure that there are members that would like you to "GIIVE IT A REST"
PS. Is there any news on Stefan. His Mum was stood next to us last and was understandably distraught. Really hope he is OK

Probably the best meeting of the season. If there was some "average fixing" going on, the riders disguised it very well.

26 minutes ago, Bald Bloke said:About right ??
Thoroughly well beaten by a good Swindon team, well lead by Nick Morris, I have no problem with that, but I do have several worries. Messrs Sundstrom and Shanes continue to disappoint and despite the heavy loss, speedway was still NOT the winner. The track looked good and apparently well prepared, but there were very few passes and those that could gate, prospered.

Totally agree with that comment Steve. The burger van on 1st bend even ran out of onions by the interval, but then again, they are normally cold anyway!!!!!

You are correct Aviator, but a lot of the comments became abusive and far too personal, with nothing to do with speedway and shed a poor reflection on Poole Speedway itself.
