Look at little old Plymouth competing with the “big boys” and with the commentary team plus others moaning about the fact we use Guests for our number one ………Which funnily enough we had lined up before last season even finished…….. who was that and who poached riders….. shall we go there with cook as well or ………. Not to mention Plymouth using Howarth as a guest for Barker instead of Kennet, who they have been using a guest for all season, so Howarth could take the r/r ride, if Poole had pulled that stunt this thread would have been all about poole cheating 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What Gary May did in declaring Howarth to replace Barker and not Kennett was completley within the Rules of the Sport and had any Team Manager not spotted that option then frankly they shouldn't be Team Managing. Maybe Poole fans are too used to see their Team hammering the opposition and when they don't hammer the opposition having the parallel univese write up from Shovlar to ease their worries, a bit like the worst of the Daily Mail. Having watched the stream as a complete neutral, I felt that Lawson was dangerous in fencing MPT (in fairness unusual for Lawson), hard on Bowtell and Bowtell could have sandbagged and got lawson excluded (so credit to Bowtell0 ; and the Heat 14 verdict on the line is unforgivable really. Poole will probably strengthen before the play offs and injuries and lack of suitable replacements will ultimately hinder Plymouth but certainly last night lady luck smiled on Poole and hit Plymouth right in the goolies!

Lewy is right some Poole posters are distinctly absent from the forum at the moment . If I've read it right he meant after is exclusion, and therefore winning the final race to get a draw. It would be good to see a video clip of the incident as most people agree that Richard Lawson isn't that type of rider at all. 15 minutes ago, Arthur54 said: Not to mention Plymouth using Howarth as a guest for Barker instead of Kennet, who they have been using a guest for all season, so Howarth could take the r/r ride, if Poole had pulled that stunt this thread would have been all about poole cheating It's not a stunt though is it, its perfectly within the rules 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Two things; 1) You called Lawson a gating tart which is something he most definately isn't and never has been and 2) You inferred Lawson cannot pass without knocking other riders off, something he proved he could do a number of other times during the same meeting. Sorry, but in my eyes the above unfortunately proves your post was 'clueless'. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
