    Im not there so can any Poole fans tell me whether there are these holes on the track that are being reported? Its the same for both teams of course but still not on if it's true.

    Yes, there are holes in the track can't deny that. However, the Poole riders have not had a problem Our home form hasn't been great this season as shown by previous results, today it's clicked.

    No, realised that Poole can’t prepare a track properly for a midday meeting so decided against it. I now just hope all of our riders remain safe. To have only completed 10 heats in almost two hours tells you all you need to know. 

    So all of the other crashes are acceptable then? 

    Same for both sides, none of the Poole riders have had a problem so far. Swindon have had happy hunting for a few seasons at Wimborne Rd, this time they've had a spanking.

    Forget Sundstrom and Grajczoneck then use the 12.74 to release Kurtz from the number one position and Jakobsen riding in the main body with a new reserve to partner Covatti.

     

    1-  new number one

    2- Jakobsen 

    3- Woryna

    4- Klindt

    5- Kurtz

    6- Covatti 

    7-  reserve capable of moving up

    Can't see where another number 1 is going to appear from, they are so thin on the ground now.  I'd be surprised if sundstrom is back.

    I have a split opinion on Harris. Part of me says good team man but another part of me  says will he be too up and down ?? Complicated further by his revised GSA up from 7.09 as per GSA 1/10 to a final av of 7.78 a whole 0.69 higher I assume based on  deleting his Rye scores as though play offs didn't count ?? Suddenly doesn't look so good. Doyle for example is 9.80 but you know you will get 10/15 points per meeting from him which we know with Poole riders last year you could get anything from 0 to 10/12 (if you were lucky).

    For me Matt has to give some serious thought to the 2019 team. Yes 2018 started badly but honestly I am not yet convinced the likes of Kurtz/Josh G/Woryna/Fredrikson will improve their av big time and Klindt had a good season (sometimes) and again not 100% convinced he would improve.

    Having so called strength in depth is good on the one hand but for me they had a good slice of luck and good fortune in 2018 to win the League whatever some Poole die hard's may think. Yes they did the job but asking lightning to strike twice with most of the same team ??. I can't see it PLUS the team has to shed a massive 2.64 points anyway to get back to 42.5 for season start. Would you tie up Harris at a whole 7.78 out of that will he even achieve that knowing realistically he is nearer a 7 IMO. Maybe you can get a proven 8 pointer which would be better but again can the club afford such expense with no confirmed team sponsor.

    I think Matt is going to have plenty on his plate trying to find a decent combination for 2019 plus if he can even do it early enough IF he doesn't have a main sponsor on board.

    Hope it does not become a case of "Oh Well" we achieved what I wanted and that was the League Champions in 2018 out 70th year so in what may be my last year at the Club let's just go for consolidation without a large expense.

    With regards to klindt, I somewhat agree. However, on his average & potentially slotting in at #4 I think we'd be mad not to. At worst, he will maintain his Ave thereabouts & still be formidable. Woryna and jakobsen have plenty of room for improvement and most importantly, WANT to ride.
