Wasn’t an even meeting really Starke clear favourite and won easily The next batch of riders Foord Ritchings Rushen and Morley miles better then the others ….

Feel sorry for any Poole fans that went tonight …. As soon as Cairns pulled out and was replaced by Starke it was obvious Starke would win this with ease best rider in the field on his home track …. I fully expect Rushen to go on to have a better career than Starke though If Cairns had have rode then the winner could not have been predicted

I support neither side but a bit strange to put your number 7 in heat 15 surely

Meeting postponed the right call

No I haven’t All I can go on is points scored If one of my reserves was scoring 4 or 5 most meetings and the other was getting mainly 1 or 2 then I would keep the one who was scoring most If in the next few weeks Ritchings scores better than Starke then that’s a different argument If one had to go today for Cairns then that has to be Ritchings As of yet I’ve not read one Poole fan tell me why I’m wrong but as usual just get the usual responses

So why would you keep Ritchings? Based on one meeting?

I just don’t understand why Poole would prefer Ritchings to him that’s all

How or do you not read stats? At home Starke 4 and 3 Ritchings 1 and a good 7 but only beating his reserve opponents which is his job Away Starke 3, 5 and 5 Ritchings 1,2 and 1 If Ritchings was younger then 30 maybe you can say he is the better option as he will improve But to say he is better option than Starke based on 1 meeting is daft … plus the fact that if it is Ritchings and Cairns then he will have enormous pressure to do well Poole have 2 poor reserves and unless Ritchings goes on some scoring spree this month then there is no way he should be kept instead of Starke Its like saying Poole should keep Kerr over Rowe as he outscored him at Berwick lol

He isn’t a better option than Starke Starke has comfortably outscored Ritchings in every match bar the last one and ritchings only beat the other reserves

You seem like one of the decent ones to be fair …. Only 2 of your fans on here are a bit strange I put a comment on that I was surprised Birmingham won as the loss of their number one was a bigger loss than no Kurtz I said that I thought 2 poor rides from Lidsey at the end cost the team …. Then I got barrage of abuse that somehow got round to slagging off Ellis performance at Kings Lynn and Ipswich not winning the league since 1998…. Very strange

Spot on…

I get that but if Ipswich are at Birmingham and Tom Brennan gets 8 from 3 then gets beat by Edwards and Castagna I’d be disappointed… not by 10 from 5 but to miss out to two basically reserves in his last 2 rides with the meeting on the line

You are a very strange character I will let you ramble to yourself

Never seen Ipswich so a risk I think

Oh lord goodnight

You never know he might actually be able to ride away from home You know you have lost the argument when spell checking is your counter

He is a good solid third heat leader … my point was that towards the end of the meeting he should not have been beat by edwards and castagna And it’s nice to have a discussion with a Belle Vue fan who can be civilised

You are touchy lol Thanks for confirming my point about Belle Vue fans being bad losers … give it out but can’t take it back lol You lost to a side tonight that have won once all season ….. ok no Kurtz but 9 from 4 isn’t bad You lost because your reserves are poor and Lidsey went missing late on Ipswich lost tonight because we have a top rider missing (same as you) and the top reserve in the league replace by a championship reserve …. We then had Ellis having a shocker and Brennan running two lasts late on….. see I’m an Ipswich fan and I can admit when we lose as to why we lose ….. Belle Vue fans can’t take losing and resort to childish responses

Who can we have at 6?

Boughen to turn up Thursday and have one ride and aggravate the shoulder???

This was my first post below Said I thought blordon was poor and Lidsey dropped points to riders he shouldn’t have Then I got the Belle Vue mafia slagging off Ellis and Emil and I agreed they had been poor tonight … that’s not me starting an argument it’s your fans Belle Vue fans are awful losers who will not have a bad word said against their team … I gave an opinion on two of your riders only for people to come back and slag Ipswich riders off who had also done poorly

Well done Brummies didn’t see that one coming Lidsey going missing in crucial races and the reserves cost Belle Vue tonight

Haha no he wouldn’t and yes Emil is struggling this season we aren’t blinkered…. But we was still good enough to win home and away to your lot

Yes awful tonight but it’s 2 legs in the cup… a competition you got battered in I believe You have your third heat leader at 3 and we don’t so technically our number 3 got 10 as well

If witches can keep this to 6 then job done with Emil and Ellis being off form Doyle and Thompsons replacements score 7 between them and Lynn pull a fast one by Boughen withdrawing Lynn win and can only beat what’s in front of them
