shocking attitude. If you think your going to win you would go but if not you will stay away. Nice support for your side! Mind you when Poole had tough times their crowd dropped alarmingly so nothing new I guess. Did you go Eastbourne when you had 4 riders missing or was that different because you had track specialists in for 2 cheating poles?

Hope your cheering on Tai Robert72 tonight it's looking good for him as Holder is doing what I thought might happen to him. Should leave England alone might help him win a world title again!

so your saying it doesn't favour the side with the biggest asset base and the most money then! Oh and if you read the thread I praised Ford for having the idea!!!! If you don't think Poole are in the best place to have a squad then your a tad delusional. And I'm not the only one to say it so while your at it have a pop at the others!

Read the thread Ive not blamed Matt Ford for having ideas Ive not blamed Matt Ford for the fact it hugely favours Poole What im saying is that his proposal of a squad system has no chance of working

No chris4gillian. Failed means never trying something according to the troll lol Im apparantly a failed speedway rider because ive never done it! Im also a failed astronaut, airline pilot and brain surgeon! if he cant understand the dictionary definition of failure then we have no chance of him understanding anything

Squad system wouldnt work and the elite league would just die...............oh hang on it would work for Poole Poole have pulled enough strokes over the years to finally have a team stand up to them is great. Didnt Poole refuse to race somewhere once? Didnt Lakeside once move a date? Seem to remember Poole faking injuries and illnesses a couple of seasons ago so that their polish duo didnt have to ride at Eastbourne and then fielded a team of track experts namely Richie Worrall so that they won the meeting. That was ok for them back then but not now?? Stop moaning ride the meeting and well done Lakeside for refusing to move the date. Lakeside are in with a chance of the top 4 so why allow one of their rivals a chance. And you have the audacity to moan about Lakesides track???

competitive speedway always the be all and end all. Though for some teams they think winning is all that matters When we at Ipswich had the all conquering team i didnt always go i picked and chose as some meetings were so one sided i didnt want to part with my money Did i want us to win the league? Yes Was the racing good? Not really. Any newbies i could have took to the sport would have been utterly bored. Moving on to a couple of seasons ago i took a mate to see Ipswich v Edinburgh and in heat 1 Cook and Barker had their issue and Cook was thrown out. Since that meeting he has come with me nearly everytime i go which is only about 6 times a season. No point Poole being miles in front of everybody and then seeing the sport die because of it

Im probably the most anti Matt Ford poster on this forum but as i said any promoter putting forward any idea is only going to suggest something they can benefit from so i dont blame Ford for putting it out there. As ive said if it comes into play speedway will just fade off and die in this country. Matt Ford only looking short term and not whats good or the future of the sport.

There isnt many better riders than Newman at reserve, Steve Worrall and Auty maybe are the only 2. Lets be fair nobody expected Ellis to be as good as he has been and his form more than Newmans is the reason Poole were doing well. With Ellis not 100% and Newman out it isnt great but Ellis is getting back and as i say you can pick horses for courses to replace Newman and Starke is a good solid option, as he is a rider that is showing great progress this year. You cant compare Newman and Garrity as Garrity is ahead of Newman by a fair way now. Steve Worrall has quite clearly improved past Newman and Auty is also a better rider. Poole have the third best tier 1 rider and the second best tier 2 rider. Poole having the strongest top 5 alongside Belle Vue (but Poole have better reserves) and the second best reserve pairing behind Leicester (whose top 5 are shocking) makes Poole clear favourites for the Elite League hence they are odds on favourites with the bookies

I agree nobody else has come forward Do i think it will work? No Does it benefit Poole more than anyone else? Yes, but im not moaning about that as of course any promoter putting forward any proposal will never put forward one that could affect their own side.

Paul Starke is the guest for this one so that shouldnt weaken Poole. A rider who has improved massively and is up to Kyles level especially around Wimborne Road

Tough luck basically.

Squad system in this country just simply wouldnt work. Clubs would fold as they couldnt afford the superstars thus they wouldnt be competitive. The Elite league would just die. Of course Matt Ford wants this in. He owns a load of assets and the club it would benefit most would be Poole. The rich get richer and the sport dies..............good idea

he rode at the start of the season didn't he?? I can compare and good rider that Newman is, he isn't as good as Worrall and as I say you wont find many who disagree. However yes his season now is curtailed which is a shame as you don't like to see riders injured but if you can get Worrall or Auty or even Starke you wont be missing out

cracking result and good to see Ben coming good. still the reserves are a huge worry

idiot! Of course I know Kyle has been injured! Is he a better rider than Steve Worrall? That is the question numpty!!

He did get through in his last ride when he needed to come second. I believe Carl Stonehewer led the race and Mark was in third for 2 and a half laps behind Jacek Gollob before getting past. I was there in 1992 in Pffanhoffen for that world under 21 final. Mark lost to Leigh Adams in a run off. Joe Screen was third and yes Gollob was in it along with Gunnestad, Norris, Klingberg, Clausen and a young Mikael Karlsson as he was then. Mark was devastated to lose the run off as Sunbrite (or Coalite cant remember) had put up a large financial windfall if a Brit won both the senior and junior titles and with Havvy winning the World Title , Mark lost out on a healthy pay packet. One little anecdote to that...........if it is the re-run dvd you have watched then the guy who interviews Leigh Adams after the meeting was none other than Paul Loram , Marks dad!! Thats the same rules as in 1999, Mark was credited as 5th What we are saying is that because Lindgren is technically a replacement , if he finished in the top 8 would he automatically qualify for next year? As correctly pointed out Mark was 5th but still had to do the challenge

i apologise you are quite correct. Mark had to go to the challenge and only just scraped in if i remember rightly

I do rate Newman. Good young British rider but pretty much reached his level in the sport. Not in the same class as Steve Worrall and im sure 99% of the forum agree with that True but this meeting is at Poole so therefore if he does guest you will be stronger having the British number 4 in your team

erm i dont think you do. You still havent answered how the riders in the British Final get paid.......full of crap You are so uneducated. Failed does not mean not trying something t0sser. In that case im also a failed astronaut!! pr1ck Are attendences down because he doesnt ride here??? Was he missed at the British Final?? Im sure he listens to idiots like you that he has failed himself! 2 x world champ and a multi millionaire according to you! Im sure he would love an ex wobbler like you to tell him he has failed himself. Perhaps you can tell him how much you have achieved in life apart from being a t0sser on a forum He owes British Speedway eff all Now do everyone a favour and go crawl back into whatever hole you came from

ive given you facts for that pal so i suggest you shut up on that topic. You are laughed at and ridiculed by the vast majority because you are a prat but i guess you enjoy it Im not a failed speedway rider pal as i never tried it. Who knows i could have been better than you if i did. Failed means trying something and not being very good at it.

Nope but if you read the thread you will see that Shovlar mentioned him as a good choice. So if he does guest Poole would be stronger than if they had Newman.

TAI WASNT IN THE BRITISH FINAL NOR OFFERED A PLACE AS THE ISSUE WAS THE SEMI FINAL!! You are quite literally the most foolish idiot i have had the pleasure of conversing with. Do us all a favour and just leave either this thread or the forum or preferably both. Your anti Tai stance rears its head on every thread you post on. Your very sad and very pathetic and simply a troll Other people have opinions that i dont agree with but nobody is as thick as you are I couldnt care less if you run to the mods people are sick of you on this thread and the drivel you post. Failed speedway rider with a severe lack of intelligence

All points count towards the World Title irrelevent of wild card or not. In 1999 Mark Loram was ranked World Number 5 even though he was a wildcard in the series. After missing the first round he then rode in Round 2 in Sweden and won it (who can forget the final!) He then rode in the remaining rounds and finished 5 or 6 points away from being World Number 3. If he had got enough points he would have been World Number 3 and not demoted. If Lindgren does enough rounds and comes in the top 8 he will qualify by rights for next year

The first post saying Garrity has progressed more than Newman your response my statement (not a question) Your response attacking the poster. something you cry about when its done to you giving you the facts on Newmans form Then asked you the first and only question ive asked. Your dimwitted response Please tell me what question i have asked that you have answered??
