    Scunthorpe Scorpions 2020

    No one is saying that Fozzie i certainly am not , but my gripe was that loyalty should work both both ways and unless Auty agreed for me it is a tad harsh.Also i have seen alot of Adam at Swindon and know just how good he is a bit of a slow burner who is improving rapidly.Back to Auty another way of looking at is the promotion has got it wrong in recent years team building wise and avid Scunny supporters have been saying for ages that Auty is only a second or third heat leader.Not an in/ out no 1 who also disliked coming out in heat one totally understand why Adam had to be signed though.

    Your obsession has been to always knock Auty, i will be very surprised over a period that he will ever be as good as Auty at the EWR.Away from home he is a great signing and he will score loads of points.

    My point was unless Auty had agreed to be dropped his loyalty shown and service given was soon forgotten.Adam is a great signing and will do a great job no denying that.

    Possibly for Auty who could do with a new challenge as for Ellis like Josh is not an in/out no 1 at Prem level he could be in time.For me Josh at his best will always be the better home rider at the EWR we shall see in time.

    Ellis replacing Auty was a wrong move, you won’t improve that much also Elis is not like Auty exciting Godfrey has made a huge mistake,

    Poole Pirates 2021

    In all seriousness Ray the club has been turned around over the last few decades can’t knock it to fair.It always has been a great day out a lovely area and my first visit there was in 1974 v Exeter with the brilliant Ivan there the crowd was huge.Poole then always had just average sides with Eide,Lofqvist , Simmo being the stars my favourites then were Smith, Yeates, Gooddy, C.Sjosten great names.

    Poole Pirates 2021

    A big ask in the notoriously difficult number two position and he will do well to average five.Maybe the clubs longterm objective is to only sign riders who have a longterm future at the club that seems a wise move.Keleher with his age against him was not in this category it would be interesting to see what Rew and Gilmore do in the future ? .Will the UK be in there plans in the future i felt if anyone would sign them Poole would be the club.

    Did well all credit to him but twisted alot of rules along the way.
  12. We can say that about a few riders over the years Bob Kilb Swindon ( great rider bad back injury) and Eric Boocock 1983 ) never came back but put bums on seats.

    They were once saying that they were always at the bottom for decades.
  14. No but you talk crap , Hurry was a mistake old Father Time has caught up with him end of move on.
  15. You are so disrespectful of the highest order maybe Silver got it wrong …? Len Silver knows more about the sport than you would ever know trust me.
  16. You were never ever good anough to put your fat ass over a saddle were you..? Think about what you saying before posting what do you know about riding a speedway bike ..?
  17. I have been a supporter of Danyon from day one Bob and overall his speedway career has been a chequered one.Had a great start at Ipswich then had that bad injury ironically at Poole came back and was superb for Birmingham.For Leicester he was outstanding yet lesser riders were getting chances at Championship level mainly because of his average from Ipswich.Really hope he keeps his form going he certainly entertains is his average to high..? to go NL as well as that might help his match race fitness.To be doing as well as he is by riding only one league is very encouraging you at Poole seem to have an exciting seven with plenty of improvement to come.

    Connor Bailey

    Great to see Connor back thought initially he was struggling like everyone financially..Great to see him back see him ride only twice he is very decent will be good pretty convinced he has a good career ahead of him.

    Plymouth v Poole 22/6/21 K.O. Cup 7pm

    I would of been pretty certain a fit Crump would of scored 10 plus from five starts.

    Plymouth v Poole 22/6/21 K.O. Cup 7pm

    Does the referee have to send in a match report about the match Steve?? if so could he change the result of his error on the Hume/ Bowtell incident .Surely Danyon should not be penalised and hit in the pocket.

    Antonio Lindbäck has decided to retire

    Never been a fan to be honest a very good rider though good luck to him whatever he does.

    Poole Pirates 2021

    Poole speedway have to go through the mire along with Wolves to protect,there future.Ascot and Wimbledon get crowds,really sickening so unfair and the sooner this farce finishes the better.

    Best thing about the 60s &70s

    We often talk about Hans Steve; you must of seen him more than most of us on the forum certainly when he approached his superstar years.He has to be in the top seven ever ? ( easily one of the best ever longevity wise impressive).A question Steve i have no idea why did Hans/ Ole have a funny relationship baffled me i know Ole helping Erik was wrong really not a wise move .Now i believe Ole and Hans are ok and that is great really liked Ole as a rider a class act ( sorry Steve didn’t want to join the Cheetahs.!,,,Tommy Knudsen is a rider often forgotten a class act was unlucky in 86 could beat Hans/ Erik on a regular basis and was a hell of a rider remember his riding in Long beach USA outstanding came back after horrendous back injuries and was still a force.
