If there was some "average fixing" going on, the riders disguised it very well. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arthur54 1,302 Posted May 23, 2018 thought that was a disgrace tonight when Stefan crashed, only Neil and our loan rider Ritchie came to comfort him, no sign of the skipper 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Out of our 4 away league matches we have only failed to pick up a point once. That's 4 points scored from 4 away matches. Averaging a point each away match. That's probably the reason why we are top of the league and Poole are bottom. Very odd comment to make all the same. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Col 854 Posted May 23, 2018 Think Poole were expecting too much from the returning Poles. I hadn't ecpected Woryna to be scoring so few points. Guess his good equipment is on the continent, using 2016 lawnmower when in Pirates blue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

g13webb 4,254 Posted May 24, 2018 Of the three matches that were raced last night , It was Wolves who in my opinion did best. I thought they would run Poole close and probably go home happy with a point.. To go there and draw the meeting is an admirable achievement . Not only winning 2 away points but also depriving Poole points they desperately need. I know its still 'early doors' but away points will prove invaluable when them PO positions are countered. This was enough to put Wolves back on top of the pile...... Impressive.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gavan 5,050 Posted May 24, 2018 So Poole fans moaning they need a real number one! When I’ve said that Kurtz isn’t a number one get told I’m anti Poole. Might be nice for people to say I was right but that will never happen and this season more than ever I think the whole Morris v Kurtz thing is pretty much answered! Poole must be looking at the form of the 2 Poles. Woryna was lauded as the next big Pole but has been poor. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sidney the robin 4,735 Posted May 24, 2018 It was a great result for Wolves Pete Adams made a great point before the meeting saying that away points are oh so vital because you will have one blip at home in the season and you need those points to fall back on.Poole showed grit to get a draw but there are problems there team wise that need to be addressed we shall see what happens between now and Monday.But the massive difference now is even if you wanted or could bring in a big hitter ( ie a Emil,Nicki, Patryk ( ect) it is totally out of the question it is not financially viable anymore .And lets be honest if Poole cannot afford it nobody can British speedway has to change now and fasten it's belt as there is a tough road ahead for every club.Monday's meeting at Wolves is a massive one now if they come away with nothing the pressure is really on with Somerset, King's Lynn,in the mix it could be a tough road ahead i personally wont be writing the Pirates off just yet.
