  1. Lol Id like to think im making a valid point though As a Swindon fan how would you feel if Rosco was picking and choosing what matches he managed the team? Doesnt give out the right message to me Before any Poole fan has a moan i do appreciate that Muddlo has other stuff going on outside the sport Have to ask though.....if Poole would have stayed top flight would Muddlo then not go to away matches at say Belle Vue or Wolves?? As i said maybe his enthusiasm is on the slide
  2. So not commited then..... A manager should be at EVERY meeting I get his dad isnt well which isnt nice I get he has another business But then surely both of those will hinder the commitment and effort he puts in. Maybe seeing as Poole have dropped down his enthusiasm for the job has gone down as well which you cant blame him for
  3. All those times you used to go on and on about my team Ipswich being in the lower league..............telling us all the best racing was top division and that i should run along back to the lower league Now Poole are in there its the best league in the world..............clown Poole fans have always been fickle.............i hate to think what the crowd level will be like if they dont do that well Sad about his dad but surely you need a 100% commited team manager and im sure these outside issues (dad/business) will affect Muddlo so he should do the right thing and step aside
  4. Or the speed that someone like Klindt cant wait to get to Ipswich..........i guess riders are keen to get to clubs that will look after them and are upwardly mobile
  5. Of course Pedersen shouldnt get any sort of reduction.......his form on the continent shows his level of ability Jeez Poole drop down and the try the same old same old
  6. Think its a given King and Heeps and Allen will be back and then Klindt and hopefully Nico Not sure what that would leave but would mean one of any of those (bar Klindt) would be at reserve all season
  7. Poole gave Mark Loram a washing machine after he won the world title
  8. As ive said the worst thing that happened for Poole was when they decided to bring in Jonasson and move Covatti to number 2. Nico was able to take 7 rides if needed but when moving to number 2 could only have 4 and Jonasson was never going to be able to replicate Covattis scores from reserve If Poole had of kept r/r at 2 im sure they would have at least beaten Ipswich...........poor management bringing in Jonasson
  9. So who would be next in line if not Danny? Bomber? Lawson? Its ok saying King shouldnt be there but at least suggest an alternative
  10. Sort of Dryml hit the airfence halfway down the straight and ripped it off so it came out onto the track. Mark was a fairway behind (already nursing a knee injury) and managed to lay his bike down going down the straight and simply slid into the air fence panel that was now on the track.......although not hurting himself it did no favours to his already damaged leg It was the Slovenian GP 2003 and is on you tube im sure
  11. Id like to think it will be us but who knows lol
  12. I know that But if Poole knew they were dropping down you would move heaven and earth to sign him...............loves the track and an entertainer...............he would put bums on seats
  13. Exactly my point I know you have to pick and choose your meetings like i do.............so why spend your hard earned money going to watch a strong Poole1-7 v a weakened away team.....you wouldnt......but thats what Shovlar wants
  14. Danny cant stand the Poole track so if Poole went for him wouldnt be the best signing in the world.......but then again Poole did sign Ricky Wells and THJ this season so i guess anythings possible...... Have no idea why Harris wasnt the first name Poole signed But will it Fans already seem split and a poor start to the season might not help Poole fans are extremely fickle when the team isnt doing well ............and blimey they won the league in 2018 and still season ticket sales went down!!
  15. Its Steve Shovlar..............he trolls to get reaction by saying the complete opposite to anyone else Because i cant get to go to many meetings i pick and choose who i want to go and see.....................i certainly wouldnt have chose to go see Ipswich v Peterborough last season for example. You will get die hard fans who can go every week no matter what the opposition You will then get fans like myself who cant make every week and others who simply cant afford to..........these people will cherry pick there meetings..........unless Poole fans prefer the away side to be very weak thus meaning they can cheer every race the 5-1 or the 4-2 they are likely to get........... I guess Shovlar wants a very strong home team v a weakened away team so that Poole can be victorious...........well unless all Poole fans think the same then that will be an issue for the club...
  16. Because i got to watch Poole on BT sport so commented on the meetings....................as i say Poole threads are usually comedy gold
  17. Cant see it somehow..........would be a lack of interest as we not in the same league......i do pity the championship fans having to read the same old crap from Shovlar and Starman so i might pop in for a laugh
  18. If its about riders signed then im not bothered who Poole sign even if they have rode/ride for Ipswich If its about more teams in the lower league then thats good If its about Poole staying in the top league thats good also I really fail to see how anything you say can have an effect on my life
  19. Your are obviously the sort of person that would rather see your team thrash another and not worry about what the racing is like. Its important that BOTH teams field the same 1-7 kind of adds credability Or are all Poole fans the same as you where all you care about is winning
  20. You cant honestly think thats a good idea......or is it simply that because you will drop down you dont really care Poole stay in the top league at home on a Wednesday to a Kings Lynn side with Iversen and Palm Toft riding in their own country.............. Poole fans wont turn up..............Lynn fans wont travel...........financial suicide If Poole go back to Wednesdays in the lower league it wont matter as possibly the opposition wont have many riders in the Danish league
  21. Nope he is Foxhall bound Would think they will keep Nicol and Todd Kurtz...................who will Howarth ride for?
  22. Whats factually incorrect? Did Poole lose 2 main sponsors? Yes Were season ticket sales down even though you won the league? Yes Based on those facts has Matt Ford has decided to drop a league? Yes All im alluding to is that at the first sign of problems he has decided to walk away..........
  23. I agree with a majority of what you said. I get they lost money last year through sponsors leaving....................but you would have thought a top club like Poole would have sponsors lining up.....you would have thought that winning the league would lead to more season ticket sales not fewer........something must be badly wrong with the way the club was promoted hence why ticket sales were low.... Poole fans are used to being one of the best teams and paying out for the best riders.....................i can see many Poole fans voting with their feet this coming season. Brand new TV deal on the table and still Poole want to drop down. Matt Ford is a business man and when Poole speedway is doing well he was happy to pay out and get his return................the sport is in a mess and so rather then try and change the fortunes he decides to sell up and walk away............ Matt Ford is not a speedway man , he is only in the sport for his gain...............when he sees he isnt going to get a gain he walks away................
  24. Klindt and Covatti and to a lesser extent Josh yes please No to Kurtz or Holder or Jonasson or Wells
  25. To tell someone to get their abacus out insinuates not being able to count Yep the figures may be more regular but if the leagues stay the same there will not be more.............. If Starman wants to debate regularity then fine.......................but why say use your abacus.........
