  1. 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
  2. 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
  3. cracking result and good to see Ben coming good. still the reserves are a huge worry
  4. idiot! Of course I know Kyle has been injured! Is he a better rider than Steve Worrall? That is the question numpty!!
  5. 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
  6. i apologise you are quite correct. Mark had to go to the challenge and only just scraped in if i remember rightly
  7. 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
  8. 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
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. 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
  12. 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
  13. 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??
  14. spot on. Kyle Newman is a good British rider and nobody wants to see him injured but the way some Poole fans go on about him is very strange. Being replaced by a better rider in Steve Worrall can't see why they are all moaning. meeting is off so why do I need to post on the thread! Oh and by the way the only question I asked was find me a non poole fan who thinks Newman is better. You haven't answered that question which is the only one I have asked
  15. Newmans last 3 scores at home are 4 2 and 6 so I'm sure Steve Worrall is more than up to the job as British number 4 and in the Team GB squad lol find me a soeedway fan not from Poole who thinks Newman is better than Garrity them please.
  16. is that the World Cup where there is no domestic speedeay or gp's around it??? Yes it's totally the same as the British Semi Finals! totally different. The world cup has no Polish or Swedish or GP'S anywhere near it so has loads of time to get his bikes here. The British Semi final was smack bang in the middle of a gp weekend with polish commitments either side. What a totally irrelevent point you make!
  17. is that the same venue that Nicholls has beaten King every time they met? One good meeting in his season doesn't make King automatic in my eyes and I'm an Ipswich fan
  18. I see the village idiot is trolling on here now! Get your on track in order and try to concentrate on getting your own team in the top 4 you fool
  19. Squad is named and car understand why Richie Worrall is in instead of Garrity or Richard Lawson
  20. thick as rubbish aren't you. Its the semi finals that were the issue but in that little head of yours you cant accept it. How do you think he will do the World Cup over here???? The dates are when there is no domestic speedway so he has time to get his bikes here!!! stop being such a plank
  21. he went through the tapes in one and fell in another. He was beaten by Bates Berge and Lambert , 3 riders that even if he was 100% he may not have beaten and Bates was also carrying a knock. In that field a fully fit Adam should be good for around 9 points. If you read what I wrote I did say he isn't 100% fit. yes I know it's his dad I'm an Ipswich fan remember. My point is there is a difference between being able to 'have a go' and being crocked
  22. Did Tai Woffinden declare he wouldn't ride in the British Final in January before the dates were known? NO. Did Tai Woffinden ride in the semi finals then declare he wouldn't do the final? NO. Did Tai Woffinden pull out when the semi final dates were announced? YES. People keep banging on about Tai missing the British Final. Missing the British Final was not the issue it was the timing of the semi finals. For all we know if the dates were different he may have rode in the semi finals. As soon as the dates of the semis were announced he pulled out. He could have pulled out earlier but didn't
  23. i agree also rans .... to be honest any team outside the top 4 is an also ran i guess. I mean as if any team could go on a run and grab a place in the top 4 then win the thing!! No mention of how good Josh Bates has been tonight then
