Some think the sport is run for Poole and whatever Matt Ford wants he gets which is clearly not the case. Ouch thinks he can troll the Poole thread with lies hoping some will believe his anti Poole rhetoric.
As you said earlier Bomber is unlikely to make much of a difference and Linus showed some better form lately so bit of a shame he is the one to make way. I still think Josh is way off his best and Richie hasn't really performed well lately either so unless they improve soon this may not be the end of the changes. I would have Nicholls back but to fit him in would mean a double change.
Obviously the fact Poole are hated by some isn't altogether a bad thing and generates more interest in their meetings because some want to see them lose so much.
The whole problem is that the sport suffers, we have a chance to show people on tv what an amazing and thrilling sport we have and we get the main reason why many don't go and the reason those that don't know much about the sport think it is just boring gate and go.
Well it was a close meeting and very up and down but that was largely due to which gate you were on. I think there were only a couple of occasions when gate 4 won and there was no passing until a couple at the end. When Hans or Bjerre can't get close to Klindt after the second bend says it all but I have seen some decent battles at Leicester, I seem to remember Janowski and Doyle having good races.
Funnily enough I was walking to my car and a couple behind me were saying it was a good meeting, shame we lost but a good meeting!! I could hardly believe my ears, what is a bad meeting at Leicester like!!
