spin king 1,923 Posted August 1, 2004 at the end of the article on Weymouth Brian White makes a throwaway remark that the Poole promotion aren't happy with what he is doing at Weymouth. The buggers should be doing everything in their power to help him, I would like to know why they aren't happy, surely the more successful tracks the merrier..... Too true! It's not as though Weymouth are in the Elite League or ride on the same night and surely Poole are successful enough to help out a little club rather than cause any problems. Yeah I thought exactly the same, after all are not Poole supposed to be the Man Utd of Speedway, how could little old Weymouth cause them any problems.

Richard Tyrrell 16 Posted August 3, 2004 Spin king, I saw several supporters at Weymouth with Poole boards and hats etc a couple of weeks ago. There are differences, Weymouth is small whilst Poole is much bigger and entry costs reflect the league standings. I guess what Poole are worried about is that their regular supporters are now given a choice, some may go to both and some may choose to go to Weymouth instead of Poole regardless of the fact that I bet some Poole supporters come from Weymouth area and were Weymouth fans before that track closed all those years ago. The quiet realisation is that Conference racing is just as exciting and attractive as Elite, its just that the 'star' names are missing and we all know the problems surrounding them in Elite. We are very lucky at Oxford with our 'go ahead' Promoter giving us both Elite and Conference - those that don't go to watch Conference are the ones who miss out!!!
