Taken it well I see. I’d respectfully suggest your point about the Bears moving to put the rider next to them off is wrong and the sour taste in your mouth is actually sour grapes. Nothing at all under hand about Andersen not riding tonight (he had a decent meeting in Denmark tonight though if you are interested)

He did a great job for Poole last night, his actions almost certainly cost KL a point. Thank you Craig...

Why do people let a half head like Shovvy wind them up? I would suggest he was breast fed as a child and wishes he still was. Whatever it is there is surely something not quite right with him. I think we should all show a little compassion toward him.

One of the start girls is quite busty, was putting me off don't know how the riders coped

Be a bit more civil that answer is awful you dont do our club any favours starry

Attack the post not the poster.

Better be, I'm bringing a car full lol

Jade needs to have a serious talk with the riders on the inside gate on the other three occasions - not following team orders and the masterplan !!! Think the Bears had some things go their way over the two legs - Proctor not matching Jensen's potential score - Ostergaard riding his 550 instead of the 350 - rr working in their favour in both legs and of course the major factor of duping Glasgow riders at the tapes this evening But you have to take your chances and following the defeat of Somerset this is another top side we have put out of the cup, really good to hear genuine Glasgow/speedway fans offer congratulations to the winners over two legs. Lets hope we can meet in the playoffs (preferably the final)!

Dim as a Toc H lamp. “Even when the lights are on, I’m not sure there’s anybody at home”.

Can't remember what was best being a supporter or a fan

If all of its Aliases bought tickets for Cardiff they'd fill the upper tier

As i've said on here a few times, one of the best things about the new track is the fact that even if there isn't a pass in a race then at least its close racing. No pass in heat 14 but Perks hanging on from Heeps was vital. There were a few more like that as well as the stand out heats 3, 5 and 15. Hope they get those 3 uploaded on youtube asap!!

All you have to do is feed Stevie and he never disappoints What absolute prize plum he is.

Strange all this hole business. I stand on bend 3 and didnt notice anything out of the ordinary before the start. In view of recent criticism of the track, I was looking for anything untoward. The track had been well watered so maybe the hole was hidden under the damp top surface? Certainly not evident from the outside. The Lynn riders were on the 1st turn while I was looking. Ive seen the video posted by Cook. Its obvious they found it. Yet,strangely, not one rider bucked or got out of shape while riding across it. Many times throughout the meeting,riders were riding a very tight inside line, so would have been ridden right through where they found it. Ask Holder and MPT in their terrific battle. Onto the Cook incident. I look directly down the back straight in a straight line towards the pits. For my money, Cook seemed very intent on pushing Josh out, as you would expect. However, he just didnt leave him any room to stay up. I didnt notice anything that would suggest he was thrown of course. We will just have to wait and see if ReRun post the incident. We will have take Josh's word about the incident. We all see things differently.

Because I should imagine one of the Lynn riders dug their heel in and dragged it back. Quite clear it had just been made. Not one single issue with the track last night. Flat out racing with plenty of passing. Seems to me there are people on here willing for the Poole track to be bad. Its not the case anymore. Sorry to disappoint! Five wins on the bounce. Confidence running high. Top of the league. On our way to retaining our title yet again. Happy days!

Officials have been ignoring the holes in the Poole track for years. The Poole riders probably just accept it as something they have to put up with. SS is no doubt frantically trying to come up with something to discredit the clear video evidence after his insistence that the track was smooth.

He’s only ever a passenger on a speedway bike anyway, so any hope of him riding with skill is non existent. As for his extreme rudeness towards the paying public and referee, he should be heavily fined and banned for at least 4 matches. I would also hope that his Team GB bosses throw him out of the SON competition..

A Poole poster wanted Cook fined and reprimanded for bringing Josh down,yet Poole seem to put 14 riders safety at risk every week.

So again you can see it from your vantage point.Unlike the riders who walk right over the top of it.Steve i know you are so biased but blimey even you can see that hole in the track from the pictures.As the saying goes "there are none so blind as those who will not see".You and Starman fall under that saying where Poole is concerned.

At least Josh has admitted Cook hit bumps , ran into him and apologised What might be interesting is if Shovlar and his band of blue tinted gormless lemmings apologised for saying Cook was dirty I doubt it ..... clueless fools

The meeting was closer than the points suggest, Vissing was mediocre, he needs to get out of this regular mid season dip, he was gifted points when Perks retired while on a 5-1 Brummies fought hard and shouldn't be downhearted. Shanes is one exciting rider to watch and Adam Ellis was very sharp out the gate. Wish the Brummies well and thanks for the lovely welcome received to the travelling Glasgow fans. It was a long journey home but worth it.

We have decided to forfeit this due to the fact it will be boring beating them every time we meet by then.

That’s optimism for you, you’ve not raced yet! At least give your boys a chance

Hey you guys! Your club runs on a tight budget and is +1 in the table, with the majority of your home matches still to come. A club up the road a bit, with millions in the bank, has just crashed out of the KO Cup, so you're doing OK. Smile!

well , you have to blame it on something ! great result for the beers , now lets get the bears out . ( work it out ) . crackin , no G . AS STEVE WRIGHT SAYS .....

But where's the official thread?

The classic design from 1937 to 1973 was simple and striking. Most of what came after was ill-advised and needlessly fussy. Are Wimbledon the only team whose colours were a foreign flag? (Vietnam). Was Ho Chi Minh a closet Dons fan? Is there a Ronnie Moore Boulevard or a Mark 'Buzz' Burrows street in Hanoi? I think we should be told.

We just need Gavan with his stats, so we know how much weaker we will be.

That's the point you shouldn't be able to do that if the base is good, that just proves there is a hole and you just can't fill it in its not solving the problem.

No. With apologies to my friend False dawn as I will miss seeing him and all the others who make a fuss of Lucy. By the way anyone who receives a parking ticket because of last week's long delayed meeting send it to Josh Bates.

Surely that's a base problem. The shale on the track can't be that deep. Ive head that Kelv has picked his new dirtometer for Poole's home meetings.

I looked at this thread last night when I got in from the meeting but I refrained from getting involved then. I've now had the time and opportunity of going through it all. Yes sad I know!! The meeting was a good close meeting with some terriffic racing and overtaking with not a single crash or fall until the Cook incident in heat 15. From my position in the main grandstand Cook's move looked deliberate and intentional but if he apologised to Josh then fair play. I would suggest that if that move had happened earlier in the meeting he could well have been thrown out of the meeting there and then - apology or no apology - just my opinion!! (The fact that Nicolai had to be held back by Middlo says it all imo). The 'hole' that Cook video'd on the track walk and which was made worse by riders scuffing it, (I watched them do it!) was also spotted by Middlo and was packed down by the track staff before the meeting began. It didn't cause any rider from either team any issue thereafter! The Stars were a 2-man team - something that Peter Shroeck has commented on - and particularly disappointing were Riss and MPT compared to previous visits - but I'm sire things will be entirely different on Monday despite the Pirates having won twice already at the AFA. Still, patched up or not the 3 Pirates plus guests will still give it a go.

is that fact or fiction .never seen a break down of viewing figures im sure you can point me in the right direction

Or maybe not. I can put up with Poole so much, but not that much. If your comment had come from a non-Poole supporter it would have carried more weight IMO.

Did you listen to Joshs comments about the Poole track on the Belle Vue v Poole match on Monday?

Always bigger viewing figures when Poole are on TV. BT would show us every week if they could.

Amazing really that they are so fond of an unprofessional looking rag bag outfit. Says much about the sports standing though I suppose. Must have been a real eye opener when the smart looking Panthers turned up at Wimborne Road for the win

You'd expect Poole to be fined by the SCB for the poor track again last night ... They ought to be docked points until they get it sorted, it's gone on long enough now ....

Shoveller must be Stevie Wonder in disguise to miss seeing that hole.

So it’s the duty of the ref just to ignore it? How about doing what we do best in this Country and put a row of cones there

Like I've said in the past on here, this isn't just poole and actually goes much deeper. Its across a number of tracks and goes some to explaining why the best riders can't be bothered with the uk anymore. The ref last night should also be spoken to for passing that track as fit to race on, or whichever official makes that call. Until the sport unifies as one to sort out track preparation it'll never go away. Fines should be handed out or whatever it takes.

Imagine running over that mid slide at 50mph, you are going to catapult and hurt yourself and potentially others. TBH it's getting boring keep repeating the same stuff week on week. Poole should be fined for that. Until they are properly reprimanded then it will continue. Thanks for the photos, hopefully shut a few of the wallys up!

You need to click on his profile picture, behind that is where the story teller is kept.

as i said before,first base is to win your home meetings,that is what ensures the income to keep a speedway club running,its basic ecconomics

He has removed it. But I need to be clear with the usual Poole lot here, there WAS a huge hole on bend 3. Why cant people just accept it?

Glad to hear the track was improved again. You will always get some people hoping its bad which is strange. 2 good meetings at Swindon and Poole on the same night. Who would have thought that a few weeks ago after the debacle of bank holiday Monday at both tracks.

Steve. Josh Grazjonek has said himself that it wasnt intentional. What is wrong with you? I've also just looked at Craig's Instagram and there was a HUGE hole into turn 3, so dont try and convince us all that the track is now all rosy because it's far from it. When josh said craig hit the bumps he wasnt lying.

What you mean is he didn’t see what you wanted him to see
