Steve0 5,517 Posted August 30, 2017 Hardly a surprise Poole beating the wooden spoonists! Well done to them and I think they have done enough to make the playoffs and meet Swindon in the semis 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted August 30, 2017 All very easy as expected tonight. Would have been an even bigger win but for the Poole riders to twice mess up advantages on bend three. In heat 1 Poole were comfortably leading when Holder and Kurtz got in each others way to allow a KL 4-2, and in heat 5 Kennett blocked Lahti to allow Jorgensen through. But really it was one way traffic, though Poole kept it interesting by continuously missing the gate. Â For Poole. Kurtz wasn't at his best but got better. Holder was quite poor to be honest. Kennett battled but had one very duff ride. Andersen was excellent. Best this season. Lahti paid 18. Superb and fast. Shanes more than did his job. Good effort. Â For Kings Lynn. Lambert was very poor bar one ride. Jorgensen was good early on but faded. Toft won a race. Jonasson battled Auty was useless then won a heat! Aarnio was out of his depth. Â So three points to Pirates to open a 4 point gap over Rye House. 4th place is still Rye House to lose though. Poole have to win and take 4 points tomorrow at Kings Lynn and hope Rye slip. If both get the same Poole will need to win at Somerset. But even that might not be enough as I expect Rye House to get 6 points from the Swindon and Leicester home meetings. Two 4 point away wins is required, and not likely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But even that might not be enough as I expect Rye House to get 6 points from the Swindon and Leicester home meetings. Two 4 point away wins is required, and not likely. If you both get the same tomorrow Poole would still be 4 points in front. Therefore a win at Somerset of 3 points would be enough as Rye could only get 6 .

The chances of a win tomorrow at KL and Somerset are slim. And we are two riders missing at Somerset while they welcome back Hougaard. Only Allen missing for them while Shanes is replaced by Georgie Woods and r/r for Holder. Not looking good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skidder1 7,637 Posted August 30, 2017 (edited) Holder was ill tonight!! In the post-meeting interviews he said he was sick and felt a bit dizzy, which is what caused him to nearly take out Brady in heat 1 Edited August 31, 2017 by Skidder1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted August 30, 2017 Holder was ill tonight!! In the post-meeting interviews he said he was sick and having dizzy spells, which is what caused him to nearly take out Brady in heat 1 There was clearly something wrong with his performance tonight. It should have been relayed to the fans during the meeting. It looked like he wasn't trying at times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
