Why would he come on a tonne at Poole but nowhere else? Jeez why do riders only improve at Poole lol
-
Your missing my point. The 3 heat leaders in both sides look the same to me with perhaps Swindon having the advantage that they know their number 1 will get 14 or 15 pretty much every week
-
Very strong team in my opinion. Garrity knows the way round Rye and Bates can only get better. Branford will be fine at reserve but Morley is weak, but all teams will be weak somewhere
-
Would you expect Doyle to lose a race at either venue as i wouldnt. Doyle @ Rye House 15 from 5, Morris @ Rye 8 from 5, Ellis say 6 from 4 = 29 points Kennett @ Rye House 12 from 5, Nicholls @ Rye say 9 from 5 and Harris say 8 from 4 = 29 points. At Swindon i would expect Kennett to score less and maybe Morris more so at Swindon no chance for the Rye riders. Have to say those 2 top 3 riders from each team look very well matched and proves you can go big with having Doyle
-
Questionable Doyle would get 14 or 15 and Ellis and Morris possibly 7 each Kennett, Nicholls and Harris say an average of 9 each, nothing in it in my opinion, but exciting times for Rye House fans
-
they had a couple of minor disagreements mainly in British Finals but its in the past Is this the same Chris Harris that flies round Wolves? Its the bigger tracks he has the issue with
-
Looks to me like the only gp rider over here next season will be Doyle and possibly Lindgren, shows how weak we are going now with the top product. If Doyle takes it seriously he would get 14 or 15 every week, taking the pressure off of the others. Hampel would be a huge shock if he rode over here and zero chance of Lindback coming back

and the award for the daftest post on this thread goes to????????????

you gotta love Starman the gift that keeps on giving
-
Dudek would be at least a 10. Seems to me a lot of wild names banded about
-
Sorry must remember to have the same opinion as you. The 'digs' as you have called them are: Poole should have kept Holder - opinion Poole should have kept Ellis - opinion Hans Andersen isnt good enough to be the team number one - opinion Magic was already a world star before he joined Poole - opinion Happy to discuss any of those but if you think im having a dig at Poole then thats up to you
-
Ahhh let be remember that time he was a GP rider at those two teams. Ohh wait I can't. He also went from 6.9 ish to 8.95 in three seasons that is pretty go going. He went from 3rd heat leader at Poole to a top three rider in the league, that's making his name. He did not ride in Sweden until last year and he has said that British speedway made him. So in 2008 Janowski was seen as good enough to ride in the gp's In 2010 while riding for Swindon he was second in the World Under 21 In 2011 he was world under 21 champion beating a certain Darcy Ward Of course in the following years he ended up getting into the gp's. You honestly think that he wouldnt have made the gp's if he hadnt rode for Poole?? In 2011 he was 20 years old so of course he would get better , the club he rode for is irrelevent He won the world under 21 whilst riding for Swindon, and then as you say he was always only going to get better wouldnt have mattered where he rode.
-
Dont bite back mate. Its a Poole thing riders only improve when they go to Poole please remember that. If he had stayed at Swindon or Kings Lynn he would have never made a gp rider. The fact is he isnt British as Poole have a poor record with Brits.
-
Capping the averages is totally irrelevent. Has to be the same as everyone elses in relation to the points limit. Give Doyle a 25 point average and make the points limit 100. Its all relative. Compare Doyles average to everyone elses and it makes total sense.
-
Darcy Ward Says No Holder At Poole No Me At Poole
Gavan replied to robert72's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Simply................why dont you just shut up -
is that a real statement? Last year was a flash in the pan?? If all riders have the same season as last year then they will all drop the equivalent of the 1.4 multiplication. This is a weaker league and if Doyle takes it seriously then he will be nigh in unbeatable
-
why leave any of them out? Put Holder snr in with Newman and that would never get beat at home. Why cap Doyles average?? In most meetings he would get 5 points more than Ellis or Jack Holder so his average is correct for this format! You suggesting you cap riders at 12 is foolish. You cant multiply some by 1.4 and not others!
-
every riders average is to high! Ellis is better than Newman and Howarth and not as good as Garrity or Lambert and the averages reflect that. I said before 95% of riders will see their averages drop. get a grip. One day you will actually know what you are talking about. Hans Andersen on a far worse average than Doyle. Love the sour grapes
-
There is but apparantly according to some Hans will not be the top average ride at Poole next year. So who will be higher then 10.01 that will come in and be better than Holder?
-
Ok lets look at your post paragraph by paragraph. Yes the Poole promotion are daft for not picking a rider, thats my opinion. Do i think they are daft over the years? No there trophies back that up, thats my opinion. Do i have honesty and unbiased opinions? Yes im honest in my opinion is they are daft for letting him go. I have no need to suck up to Adams father lol. He took issue with me telling him Bates should have been in the World Cup team instead of Adam, an opinion i stand by. Time has proven that Adam improved more than Bates. Funnily enough his dad thinks he has been treated poorly, guess he is biased. Greg Hancock won the world title but was he the best rider in the world last year? No it was Doyle, think you will find 99% of people on here would agree with that. ANd yes Lambert is the best young brit but maybe Adam is more promising. And Hans might not be number 1 and thank you for your concern over my eyesight. Just funny how the usual Poole fans bang on about Holder being to high yet they are looking for a rider above 10.01 to be number one? Erm you just let him go!!
-
Again failing miserably to actually quote what i posted! Up to the World Cup Bates had performed better than Ellis internationally, was British Under 21 champion and did well in the first round of the World Under 21. I satnd by my choice that he should have been reserve. Check back over my posts and i said Ellis outperformed Bates after that point.
-
This is the Swindon thread am i ok commenting on this? Ah your one of those Poole fans who dont seem to like it when people have a different opinion on your team. In my opinion Poole should have used Holder and Ellis
-
Well done Swindon in signing Ellis. Horrible the way the Poole promotion discarded him and great to see him fixed up. Looking a good side already at Swindon Come on you know how Poole discard riders been going on for years. Unless Adam was an aussie or a pole he had no chance of staying
-
Glad to see Ellis snapped up. Daft for Poole not to include him. A lot of Poole fans were saying that he could miss out on the top league this season because of his average, well i guess that theory has been proved to be tosh. Most in demand young brit snapped up straightaway as expected. Top rider in the world in Doyle and the best young brit in Ellis, Swindon looking very strong already , still Poole do have a rider at number one in Hans on his way down
-
correct, cant have one rule for one and one for another. Ellis is a better rider than Newman and i would have thought Ellis would have achieve over 7 with ease in the premier Let me just edit your post You really have to wonder how much lower our sport can go when a rider that was competing in the EL can come into the EL with a heat leader average the following season There that looks much better.
