I wasn't referring to Poole ever finishing 4th FB. More like TTT coming across as maybe having a bit of a strop in his post above (not unlike some Poole fans at times). I can understand to a degree after Louis antics, but not bothered about a play off place, because they will probably get beat in the final
He scored 1 last time he was here, and the Lions still won by 4 points.
But Max and Ben had bad meetings, so i'm go for a reverse of that with Lynn winning by 4-6 points.
I know its only your realistic side. But NKI and Klindt must be a no no for me. Puk has had a good year, and is on a high 7.11 average. Klindt is such an annoying rider, so up and down. Plus been there done that with both.
I could put up with your dream side though
Well our top No.1 which couldn't of been cheap, has only averaged 7.64 at home this season. Thats only 0.13 more than Kvech at home, and 0.15 more than Harris . Nowhere near good enough, we must win all the home meetings at a minimum if we are to get in the play offs.
To be honest, i dont think you can have Coops, Jody and Jordan all in your team. We couldn't make it work this season with a genuine number 1 in the team. But Kvech, Bomber and Cook need to go, and there will be a few teams after Max now his average has dropped. Who know what next season will bring.
There a many variables that can contribute imho. I would go against any of the above. Spinning up on a slick track ( blue groove) certainly dont help. I'd add riding styles to a lesser extent, and bike set up to that as well. Having said that, riders shouldn't have to worry about trying to make their tyre last a meeting on any track.
2 tyres per rider instead of 1 would help in the short term imho.
I know he was talking about the tyres, and not the track, and I said there was no mention of any particular track. But looking at the pic of your track last night, I did wonder.

There is no mention if this was from last nights meeting though.

This is what we’re racing on now days … The second photo is with a nearly new tyre for comparison. I just think to myself maybe a competitors tyre would/could/has been better ?
We’re putting our lives on the line every time we go racing. The priority should be giving riders the safest and best-performing tyre possible whatever that may be.
Maybe we should be given the choice to use the tyre we feel is best for us.
Maybe Sweden has got it right with their tyre rules ?
I know my opinion.
Ultimately I want what’s best for the sport. If speedway wins we all win. Some people think this is moaning when in reality it’s just facts and if no-one is willing to say anything, nothing will ever change.
