Somerset v Kings Lynn Tuesday September 4th
Gavan replied to racers and royals's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Is there any depth to the level that shovlar trolls? totally clueless Klindt getting Iversens average lol. Love seeing everyone telling him how daft he is looking yet again. Somerset will pick Poole , why would they pick Belle Vue who recently won there? Somerset clearly have Pooles measure be mad not to pick them. keep trolling shovlar dear boy not long until Rome -
The loss of Barker for this one could be costly, cant see r/r covering him all that well. We need to obviously keep Cook and Harris quiet. I think Riss tends to go well there but ive no idea about Cam as he didnt appear to ride there last year (unless he guested for someone) and only got 3 the year before and Nico only got 6 there in 2016 as well. Nicholls did well for Peterborough and hopefully our reserves can outscore Glasgows though there seems to be a lot of expectation on Drew after his Scunny performance. I think ultimately we will lose but only just

Somerset v Kings Lynn Tuesday September 4th
Gavan replied to racers and royals's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
i can see those wheels backtracking so fast. I can see anyone else laughing in your delusional little world you live in Having a debate with foreverblue and skidder........now run along you must have a flight to Rome to book How are the magnificent 7 ,9 11 sorry 13 riders doing? -
I said Kings Lynn would be bottom but its just fun to read from him of all people. It was more the fact that i got accused of anti Poole stuff saying they would make changes and the original 1-7 looked risky.........and i predicted Poole to finish 3rd! Nice to prove a point to the Poole (insert word of choice)

Bet i do what lol, i ended our marriage thanks but i guess you know me better its quite comical to be honest

Somerset v Kings Lynn Tuesday September 4th
Gavan replied to racers and royals's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Lets look at what could have happened then. Doyle rides they get a 5-1 and 1 point becomes 3 put them on 45 points after 22 matches. Somerset beat Kings Lynn by more than 7 tonight (possible) leaves Somerset on 48 and Lynn on 47 after 22 matches each. Somerset then get a big away win at Belle Vue and move on to 52 after all matches completed. Lynn then win only one of the double headers against Leicester and Somerset are top. All of that could happen but unlikely. Would Somerset have anything to gain from coming top? No not this season. They wouldnt choose Belle Vue who won their recently and although no Bewley he only got 6 that night and r/r could cover that, they would choose Poole. Somerset by coming second will still be left with Poole as there is no way Kings Lynn will choose Poole. Kings Lynn have won twice away at Belle Vue when Bewley got scores of 11+2 and 9 +2, and beaten them twice at home (Lambert only getting 7) when Bewley also scored 12 and 8. The loss of Bewley makes Belle Vue even more inviting for Kings Lynn. So to sum up..................no matter who tops the table the semi finals will be the same. Why risk your irreplaceable number one getting a worse injury for the important play offs? -
Somerset v Kings Lynn Tuesday September 4th
Gavan replied to racers and royals's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
The word is flawed.............lol I ask you again......if Woryna aggravated an injury, would you prefer him to keep riding, do more damage, miss the play offs, or rest for the play offs?? Simple question that for some reason you cant answer. I use Woryna as he is possibly the only Poole rider they would struggle to replace 24 hours for an aggravated back injury he can have plenty of treatment. Not one Somerset fan is annoyed he didnt ride but i guess they see they bigger picture -
Somerset v Kings Lynn Tuesday September 4th
Gavan replied to racers and royals's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Harris is what you get and in my view along with Woryna has been the reasons why Poole are where they are and why they could on their day sneak the league. There is no doubt Brady has been very poor and is lucky to still have a job. He could come good in the play offs but he also has that tendency to not handle pressure. There has been lots of talk over who is better Brady or Morris but both riders have gone backwards this season. Both a long way behind Fricke now and seeing riders like Jack Holder go past them. Will either kick on? Morris i feel is at his level , Brady could but he needs to move forward next season. Maybe both have suffered with being out and out number ones and the pressure that has brought. -
Somerset v Kings Lynn Tuesday September 4th
Gavan replied to racers and royals's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Are you Starman in disguise telling people to go back to their own threads lol You would rather have your top rider race in heat 15 with an injury just to win a match that will ultimately prove irrelevant, and then have him missing for the all important paly offs? Very strange way to look at it. Thank You Jason Doyle we nicked that win against the leagues bottom club as you put yourself through the pain barrier, doesnt matter that we have lost you for the play offs as that win helped us to come second in the league. Im sure Somerset fans would prefer that lol Doyle and Lambert are probably the 2 riders in the league that couldnt be replaced (unless with each other). If the match meant anything then maybe he would have done it. Fcat is it didnt and he didnt need to. Very strange way of thinking -
Somerset v Kings Lynn Tuesday September 4th
Gavan replied to racers and royals's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Pooles team has been built with strong reserves and the top 5 chipping in about 7 each. That will win most meetings but if the reserves have an off night then Poole are clearly vulnerable to a team that has proper heat leaders. Technically Poole have 7 riders who are all second strings -
Somerset v Kings Lynn Tuesday September 4th
Gavan replied to racers and royals's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Probably not........but irrelevant , Somerset safe in the play offs, know they will face Poole wether they top the table or not, no point over doing things -
Somerset v Kings Lynn Tuesday September 4th
Gavan replied to racers and royals's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
He didnt pull out of any programmed rides he decided it best not to ride in heat 15. I would imagine with a days rest and treatment he will have a go tonight but if he jars it he may well pull out again and take the rest. Somerset v Kings Lynn thread taken over by Poole fans getting their knickers in a twist. Doesnt matter what happens Poole will be 3rd and then face Somerset. -
Somerset v Kings Lynn Tuesday September 4th
Gavan replied to racers and royals's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Stirring as usual He jarred his back again in heat 13 against Nicholls, the same injury he incurred riding Pooles dangerous track the other week. Kings Lynn had already won, he didnt need to risk himself further. Somerset unlikely to top the table and wether they come first or second they would have the easier tie against Poole anyway. And no he cant win the world title but he wants to stay in the top 8 , he will undoubtedly get a wildcard but better to make sure Why would the travelling Rebels fans be fuming? You make no sense. Lets say Woryna picks up a minor injury in his first or second ride. Would you want him to carry on and risk further injury or would you rather he rested for the important play off matches?? Try looking closer to home for riders cheating their travelling support. You and other Poole fans were very vocal about Poole riders 'not needing to try' at Kings Lynn, but yet you come on here and say Doyle cheated Somerset fans...........you really are laughable -
Championship League Riders Championship
Gavan replied to cinderfella's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Only difference was Stonehewer was full time in the lower league Cook hasnt been. Think also the GP was easier back in Stoneys day with 22 riders ( i think) which meant that there would be around 8 or 9 riders (Andersen, Ferjan, Smith, Walsek, Karger to name a few) that would have all been at the same level as Stoney. Also you could get further in a GP as it was the 2 rides and out system and you could get through race due to a failure of others. I seem to remember Chris Louis at Coventry in 1999? Came second in his first ride then last then second again (due to a rerun) then last but ultimately got to the final and came second! Under the current format he would have had 4 points from 4 rides. Cook now is with arguably the bets 15 riders in the world. He isnt good enough for top ten in the GP but if the gp had 22 riders he would be 15th or 16th i would imagine -
Championship League Riders Championship
Gavan replied to cinderfella's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
It just seems that people want to knock Cook for no real reason. No he isnt a top line gp rider and will probably never will be , age isnt on his side. But when he retires he can say he took his talent as far as he could. People used to mock Harris and Smith but they were in it all the time and by rights as well. There are 15 riders in a gp and most seasons you can always pinpoint the riders that will probably struggle. Maybe the qualification for the riders championship is flawed but thats not Cooks fault -
Championship League Riders Championship
Gavan replied to cinderfella's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Why do people fell the need to bash Craig Cook? Im not his biggest fan , i was there that night at Ipswich when he got thrown out of the meeting when he behaved like a petulant kid but people knocking him need to look at some facts. He Qualified by merit for the Grand Prix No he isnt going to trouble the top end but so what he deserves his place he earned it Is he really any worse than Pawlicki has been? He was a run off away from regaining his place. He should be allowed to ride who he wants for its his choice He didnt make the rules as to who should ride in the riders championship It sounded like a good meeting so thats all that should be spoke about. The favourite won it, thats what happens- 194 replies

Who will get the last playoff spot??
Gavan replied to ZagarRacing's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
It could happen but can’t see how Poole could beat Somerset. Somerset beat Poole 3 times at home fairly easily and the closest match was when Pooles reserves banged in 21 and Somerset had Claus 000 Vissing in the team. Somerset have not only won at Poole but also kept it close with 3 riders missing Funny things happen in speedway but over 2 legs Somerset quite clearly are better than Poole -
Poole v Wolves. Prem B. 5/9/18
Gavan replied to Steve Shovlar's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I get that So then its ok for the Poole riders to cheat the hardcore support who go to away matches by not trying. We have been told by numerous Poole fans on here that they were not bothered at Lynn as they were assured their play off place. If they have been told to take it easy by either Ford or MIddlo then thats a disgusting way to repay the Poole fans who had made the effort to travel. What really happened was that Poole were totally thumped by a much better side. If the Poole reserves dont fire the team doesnt win simple as that. For this match i expect Poole to win by at least 15.................assuming they are trying of course
