Gemini 4,894 Posted March 11, 2017 (edited) Well, at least it will please starman. I hate Poole myself, although Dorset is nice. Skidder1.........HC did in post #204, which is what Starman picked up on!! I am very aware of that and the fact he always picks up on anything mentioning Poole that might not be 100% favourable. As far as I can see HC was commenting on track inspections/rain/Sky and that particular match involved Poole and Belle Vue. Another one that springs to my mind was at Coventry with Sky present again, rain.......oh and Poole of course. Luckily I was on holiday so missed it all.

Another one was at Kings Lynn when Buster wanted it on but the riders didn't and Sky were not there, so its not always a Sky thing but of course Sky want it on if they have taken the time, trouble and expense to show it.

Catalan 717 Posted March 11, 2017 Another one was at Kings Lynn when Buster wanted it on but the riders didn't and Sky were not there, so its not always a Sky thing but of course Sky want it on if they have taken the time, trouble and expense to show it. I found Sky weren't the problem, it was Go Speeds representative who always pushed for things to carry on no matter what. Many a time I've heard Steve Brandon say it's on your head ###### if a rider gets injured. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CookieIpswich 249 Posted March 11, 2017 Track covers would be nice across the board, another thing that should have been a higher priority over rebranding Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OveFundinFan 4,143 Posted March 11, 2017 Track covers were another thing Man. City Council didnt provide last year at the new BV stadium. Its in their list "to do" during 2017 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Starman2006 2,356 Posted March 11, 2017 Oh gawd he's back and still with a chip on his shoulder. No-one mention Poole in any comments unless they are full of praise. Not been anywhere Gem, but you know dam well what he or she was refering to.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gemini 4,894 Posted March 11, 2017 (edited) Not been anywhere Gem, but you know dam well what he or she was refering to.. You might not have been anywhere because you've been selecting which posts you like but you've definitely not been posting yourself for a while. I thought you might have come back a bit more chilled but obviously not. Actually I don't know what he's referring to so perhaps you can jog my memory because I don't have Sky. Presumably the circumstances were similar to the Coventry v Poole match? ................ray c..............do you hate Poole speedway or just the town I live there and the town is a dump . I'll say just Poole Speedway if it will annoy starman. Not been to Poole for a few years but it didn't seem too bad. Loads of motorbikes on the quay one evening ~ Tuesday? Nice boat trips on the Solent Scene. Err......Old Harry Rocks, Sandbanks, Brownsea Island, Poole Pottery. Is that still there?

2ndbendbeerhut 1,781 Posted March 11, 2017 Think the courts are trying to send out a message,one bloke from Hartlepool(probably Jeff Stelling)has just been given a suspended prison sentence,and fined £250,000 for selling illegal boxes in the local pubs. Blimey,youve got to move a lot of boxes to cover that sort of fine. But he was selling them for £1000 each! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes Poole pottery is still here but the factory on the quay has long gone. Thing is we take for granted what we have here because we live here.
