Guest Posted October 15, 2013 (edited) Sports when one person/team dominate are not good for encouraging interest, look how Vettel is currently killing F1 stone dead. I think there is interest in F1 - waiting to see who will defeat Sebastian Vettel. Edited October 15, 2013 by Guest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gavan 5,050 Posted October 15, 2013 For the sake of speedway lets hope the Brummies win i dont agree for the sake of speedway. speedway is dying irrelevent of who wins it. the only issue i have is how Poole got to the play offs. its pretty obvious that they are the best team in the last 4 Sports when one person/team dominate are not good for encouraging interest, look how Vettel is currently killing F1 stone dead. dont agree. look how good it is and how much people enjoy beating Man Utd and watching a Van Gerwen beat Taylor. The other teams should strive to be the best. Poole are always there or thereabouts and yes not always be the correct way of doing things, but doesnt it make it sweeter if your team beats them? Poole have been the team to beat in recent years and coupled with the fact that they have a promoter who lets just say isnt 'speedway friendly' and a manager that this season has lost a lot of peoples respect, surely it must be more satisfying to beat them?

foreverblue 6,096 Posted October 15, 2013 Couldn't have taken place the following Monday as Belle Vue were due to ride at Peterborough.If it didn't take place on the day it was rode,Poole would have most likely missed out on the playoffs due to the cut-off date.So you can see why it was desperate for Poole to get the meeting on. It would have taken place the following monday, the peterborough match would have been postponed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

500cc 309 Posted October 15, 2013 It would have taken place the following monday, the peterborough match would have been postponed Why on earth would Peterborough have agreed to call that match off. Not a hope. They would have fought to keep that match on and the fallout if they'd been forced to cancel would have been huge. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
