To be fair there are only a handful of any teams supporters on here, so won't be the case for all of them...But there are some Ford puppets on the forum.. Poole do seem to have more than most though. 54 minutes ago, Skidder1 said: I bet the Leicester fans - or those that are left - are well p!$$ed off then!!!!

Stoke Potter 242 Posted August 15, 2018 1 hour ago, Skidder1 said: Thats not dust - thats just the 'thin shale' we've been using. Also its been said many times that modern-day riders don't like the track to be watered once the meeting has started and got past heat 4 because it *ucks up the set-ups!! (NB. * is an 'm' by the way ) They should start investing in some "fat" shale then! Modern day fans (actually fans of any era) won't like having their view spoilt by getting dust in their eyes, and the fans are more important than the riders, but most people don't realise that. Seems obvious that last winter's attempt to fix the track failed, time for Ford to get his hand in his pocket and do it properly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although we do have a lot of non regulars in the summer hols but the majority will be Poole fans as at most home meetings throughout the country. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He has been your best rider in the last 2 meetings and Poole would have lost without him last night. I did but that was due to poor form. The other 3 just aren't good enough riders. Shanes is not even a good Championship reserve tbh. Szczepaniak's never been any good over here. Sundstrom is average everywhere tbh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bald Bloke 3,287 Posted August 17, 2018 Just read Klindt's shoulder popped out in the incident with Summers in HT 5 and popped back in down the next straight He still carried on, winning his last ride, that's committed to the cause. Flew back to Denmark Tues for treatment. Apologies if its common knowledge, I didn't know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think he can look after himself if he can ride with a dislocated shoulder. Aaron Summers tried it but failed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
