Probably not I would assume. Shame as he has had good meetings at Poole.

Obviously I hope we dont go the way oc Swindon as it was as top club with good support. Sad you have to criticise Middlo like this, he is a top bloke and a top manager. In this scenario if he had kept Perry in heat 14 some would have come on here and said he doesnt know what he is doing putting Matt Perry in the race.

No guarantee he would have beaten Liebmann which would have done him no good at all but no surprise an old Swindon fan slating Poole or their fans.

Not justified, you have to win by as much as possible especially when aggregate is involved. Who knows what could happen in the 2nd leg.

Isnt Kerr going back to Oxford when fit.

Probably would have made no difference the way Ben was riding but not to try at least was strange.

Nicholls has maintained he doesnt want full time premiership and Gilkes deserves more time in my opinion. Howarth and Edwards could be the ones to go

Yes Harris let them down tonight, he doesnt seem to be going too well at the moment

Not sure Joe would be any better.

You obviously havent seen him enough. Did a brilliant pass at Oxford the other day

He is a safe rider, in front great but didnt always seem to try that hard when behind, one of the reasons I didnt really warm to him when he rode for Poole. Lawson is often talked about as a gater but in my opinion he gives everything he has.

I agree with that, it seems easier to pass at Ashfield although you would think a rider of Worrall's ability should be able to pass at any track. Also it would seem his form has dipped a bit this season.

Ok but you seem to think you only have to gate to win races at Poole.

You seemed to cope ok with the Poole track last season considering you only have to gate to win apparently.

Yes Lawson did well, paid 14 from 5 rides. 8 day doesnt apply as he is riding for the home team. I would think Berwjck fans would be cheering him tonight.

Maybe but Jenkins didnt

Boughen cleared the track pretty quickly too.Was that because Sam Masters was in front at the time?

Zach has an average that would suggest he is heat leader quality.

Yes you did Steve and part of Zach's problem is he doesnt seem to try different lines .

Completely disagree, Ben will always be better in my opinion, there have been many brothers in sport and usually one is better like the Thompsons, Joe will be a good rider but Dan will always be better. Zach has had an injury so wasn't expecting too much at Oxford so wasnt disappointed personally.

I have no issue with Zach, he has just come back after injury, give him a bit of time and he will be fine, he isnt as good as brother Ben but he will be fine.

Walasek must be nearly 50! Cant imagine he would be the answer

You mean like when Jenkins fell and only cleared the track when the red flags came out.

Yes I think we are all warming to him, I dont think Shovvy has ever said he wasnt a fan of Brennan but he certainly seems to have improved this season.

Very enjoyable meeting, good racing as usual at Oxford with a couple of stand out racesToby holding off Nicholls was incredible and so was Brennan pass on Masters and Nicholls pass on Lawson in the last race was also pretty good even though it meant we lost on the night.
