  1. The trouble is when promoters and fans call for this it's only when they are on top. When they are 5th and 6th they dont sing the same tune I can see the merits of it but would say that any club can keep the same 7 that ended the season so long as it's the same 7 that started it When a team has made 2 3 or 4 changes using what are easily manipulated regulations where you can end up over the points limit without even riding a meeting then it cant be right (this is a generic point and not aimed at Swindon 2019 specifically)
  2. Congratulations to Swindon- a fine side head and shoulders above the rest of the league in the end
  3. I was being conservative! As Baldy states it could hold a lot lot more. The main back straight stand holds 3500 alone - how many spaces do you see? There is then the concrete terracing that was 10 deep right round bends 1 and 2 as well as along the back straight below the stand and not forgetting the home straight stand Now you've got me thinking I'm edging towards 4500
  4. No doubt you could find an example or 2 for every club. The difference with Poole is doing so has seemed to be the basis of their operating model almost to the point where if they play it straight you find yourself second guessing what the angle must be....
  5. Until now they have been the club with the best sponsorship which has allowed them to be out front. Now it seems they are not and perhaps can no longer compete Obviously Poole feel that by moving to the CL they can still be the big fish they want to be
  6. Only really feasible if they can get amended planning consent
  7. That has to be a possibility although Sheffield may want Thursday back and Kent seem keen to jump up.....
  8. The Witches and being ahead of anything is surely a contradiction (except Poole in semi finals)
  9. Pure formality. BTW despite our relative success (certainly compared to expectations) our time in CL was at least as good as this season No discernable difference in racing quality. Give it a fair crack and any fan will enjoy it despite any reservations they may have initially
  10. With a 1.6 multiplier set to be in place and possibly a 38 point limit if there is an increase in teams good luck with that.....
  11. Time for the mods to move this thread to the correct section...
  12. He didn't shove him he put his hands out to gesture him to slow/ dismount (he had already ignored a similar gesture at the track gate Riding a bike into the pits is not allowed - he should be warned and or fined Of course his defence could be his ankle hurt so much he couldn't walk
  13. Apparently it was quite grippy but not in a deep/heavy way which it was more so for the semi final With the colder night and general dampness of the air the riders were saying it was actually very greasy which made it a little tricky at times
  14. Niels was incredibly unlucky. The only caveat to that from me would be that when he was behind in those re runs he never looked like challenging which was a bit disappointing They were all trying their socks off but were just 2nd best overall
  15. My estimate would be 3500+ possibly 4 Even one of the Doyle put crew commented on "the amazing crowd" in the pits after (number and noise)
