    Holders house up for sale is more to do with problems in his life than anything else.

    Who Owns Their Own Stadiums

    Poole Stadium is owned by Poole Borough Council, who were bequeathed it by a local land owner many years ago to be used only as a sporting area. The council have leased it out to Stadia UK, who sub lease to Poole Speedway.

    You would rather have Cyfer than Ellis? Doesn't make sense. Adam has ridden brilliantly this year and you would rather have an untried Pole who hasn't exactly been pulling up any trees in Poland.

    Belle Vue 2017

    From what I have heard it is unfortunately beyond life support. Lets hope for changes this winter. We don't want to lose the best race track in the country. If the council come in the place could end up as an athletics stadium.
  5. Woffindens inclusion in the Wolves team was for one reason only. To strengthen up for the playoffs. No other reason. Poole had the change forced on them when Andersen badly broke his hand. He attempted to ride again but hasn't ridden since. One change tactical, one an injury replacement. Think its clear one team gained hugely while te other team never covered the injuries suitably. The reason why Woffinden won't ride for teamGB has been given. He wanted a percentage of the winnings equivalent to the points he scored. This was refused as its always split equally amongst the riders.
  6. He was definately affected by the booing. His interview shows he was upset about if and probably wasn't expecting anyone to give him some stick. Reckon that's thelast we will see of him........until just beforenext years playoffs. Pity the Wolves rider with an average slightly above Woffindens. Trouble is Woffinden has turned his back on the EL until it suited him, then told Rosco to stick TeamGB up his jacksie. Does he really still think he is our popular World Champ?
  7. A center green announcer is not allowed to incite, say things that are untrue about the opposition and has to follow quite strict guidelines laid down by the scb. Failure to adhere to the guideline can result in a finand/or suspension. Looks like the guy on the mike either didn't knownor ignored the rules of an announcer. By the way nice to meet you at Monmore last week.
  8. Ths fixture list needs to be expanded not shrunk. We gad great big holes in the fixture list this years and need fixtures to fill them. An expanded EL of 12 teams would be great, with home and away twice. Plus playoffs for the top six. Plus each club running an individual if they wish. 22 fixtures guarenteed plus playoffs. Squads so riders can use different riders on different weeks. A minimum of two Brits in teams. Edr to stay. Guests banned unless for a team coming from PL. No guests for established EL teams. Glasgow, Ipswich, Rye House, Sheffield invited up.
  9. Have to say if there was going to be a right old set to between the Chelsea and Arsenal benches with players jumping in together with backroon staff, the Sky cameras would be all over it and it would be analysed from every angle. Last night Sky acted like a pitch invasion and pulled the cameras away. Just don't get their reasoning.
  10. Sophie blake to Adams, "do you feel vilified the changes came off?' Lol. The second leg was so much better than the first. A proper speedway track where racers can race, and the result of a heat is not over until the final bend. Several top notch heats with plenty of hard racing. Not one single fall all night which is unusual. The good. Great racing. PK rolling back the years to end on a high. Cooks passion. A huge crowd. BV keeping in it longer than most thought. The bad. Woffinden. Again. Will he ever learn?
  11. I really wish Peter Adams would show some passion. The way he is talking you would think Wolves had just lost the title.
  12. Hang on all of you, you cant go slagging Woffy off. I mean, theres only a few Tai dislikers out here, right? Been told so many times I am one if a handful who don't like the guys attitude. Seems theres more the the tai fans like to admit. Good on the bv fans for giving him stick.
  13. What does he expect? There isn't many British fans left who support him now. About time he realised this.
  14. Congrats to Wolves. Best team in the playoffs.
  15. Adams has just won the title and talks like he is about to doze off. No wonder Sky like Poole in the final.
  16. The ringer wins it for Wolves. Then baits the home fans. What a disgrace this man is.
  17. Cooks left hand turns not popular.
  18. Race of the night! Cook a bad loser there!
  19. If you want to believe that. The rest of us know Wolverhampton are League Champions 2016.
  20. Very poor from Richie Worrall there. No excuse from giving that point up.
  21. Game over well done Clegg. Congrats to Wolverhampton must say they nearly made a pigs ear of it but in reality were always quite safe.
  22. If Howarth gets a win its all over. And he is capable.
