You dont even know the definition of the word lol It means to post to deliberately inflame..........something that you do on a regular basis just look at the reaction you get from other posters should tell you all you need to know. What i state is called an opinion. You said it was a stunning effort for Poole to make the final......i disagreed that isnt trolling. Poole were hot favourites for the league before a wheel was turned...have changed numerous riders (ok thats good management and something that Swindon should have done).then they benefitted hugely against Somerset. I love how you post all your tripe on here and then when someone disagrees with you , you simply call them a troll. Maybe you should go back to abusing my personal life.............you seemed to get a kick out of that............got everything wrong obviously but it seemed to make you happy
-
A stunning effort lol. The hottest pre season favourites for many years .......make 13 changes........benefitted from Rye closing and avoided injuries.......and you think that’s a stunning effort It’s like congratulating Man City on making the top four lol Even now in the final missing Kurtz helps Poole as well Anything less than a Poole win will be failure after being hot favourites, and loads of changes to not then be champs will be a disappointment

Steve Shovlar in missing the point shocker yet again No humility nothing at all what a poor excuse of a supporter Have you not noticed that you are pretty much the only person on here who hasn’t said Poole had some luck. Poole got very lucky last night , true fans and people like you who don’t troll for a reaction realise this and have responded accordingly You are the sole reason that Poole get the stick on here , even the real Poole fans are sick of your constant tripe. If Poole lose you will get absolutely mocked and unfortunately that spills over to the true Poole and speedway fans who don’t deserve that on here. Very sad that as a grown man you feel the need to have differing opinions and post to inflame (trolling) then everyone else. Brady missing does not make you weaker that’s your usual party line. Poole missing riders = weaker ....opposition missing riders = stronger. You even said Somerset would be stronger with Howarth in for BWD and r/r for Summers You get things wrong all the time
-
Oh dear Poole now stronger with Brady our as they can have r/r at home and have riders that go better at Poole taking two of those rides Then away from home they can replace Brady with someone who rides Lynn better than he does Poole certainly getting all the luck this season Leta hope the deserved champs Lynn can really turn it on and claim a rightful league crown

Reserves will play a huge part in the Poole leg as will Iversen. Niels hasnt gone well there this season Simon Lambert is appalling around Poole so a lot will rest on Palm Toft who hasnt really done much there either. In the 2 matches at Poole this season Iversen has got 5 and 6 and the reserves were outscored 22-5 and 19-6. Kings Lynn cant afford that to happen again

King's Lynn v Belle Vue; Play-Off. semi final 2nd leg
Gavan replied to g13webb's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Riders were close because it was two teams of similar ability, id imagine the final will be the same. Pooles tracks has bumps , riders were bouncing around, though Lynns wasnt any better. Both tracks in the past have had great racing but not really anymore. What was good at Poole was the team riding by the Somerset riders blocking Pooles riders, a dying art but Covatti and Allen did it well. -
King's Lynn v Belle Vue; Play-Off. semi final 2nd leg
Gavan replied to g13webb's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
You thought the Poole meeting had brilliant racing? Must have watched a different meeting to me then. Processional racing apart from heat 15 -
It was not the same for both as Somerset went down to 5 riders causing the reserves to have far more rides and going with only 1 rider in 1 heat. Poole went down to 6 riders. The injuries were unfortunate and nobody wanted that but to say it was the same for both sides is clearly wrong. What race did Poole go with only 3 riders? Spot on Nobody is saying Poole dont deserve to go through.......just the fact they have had the rub of the green and the accident affected Somerset more. Just a shame that the odd one or two think its all anti Poole garbage again. The decent Poole fans know they had the luck on their side and thats the way it goes. Fact is Poole done the hard work in the first leg so on balance may have deserved to go through
-
Of course there was an advantage gained by Poole Yes both teams lost a rider but Somerset went down to 5 riders and Poole down to 6. This meant Somersets reserves having 7 rides each...............something that tired them both out as in 5 heats in a row they both filled last places. It also meant Somerset tracking only 3 riders in heat 13. No advantage was gained in the scoring but gained quite clearly in the fact the reserves were over worked and going into a race with 3 riders Poole deserved the win no doubts at all and that was a great ride form Harris though Doyle kept looking back and the error he made out of turn two allowed Harris the chance which he took, but you cannot say that Somerset werent unlucky R/R for Summers did get more but Howarth got less than BWD so that evens out. As i said forget the scoring of Kurtz and Holder as we will never know how that would have gone, but the crash did happen and as ive said above it had an impact on reserves being overused and having only 1 rider in heat 13. If you read through my posts ive congratulated Poole but you must realise that that crash helped Poole more than Somerset Both semi finals have been decided by injury, hope the final isnt Just for once how about reading my post rather than twisting what i wrote as usual I didnt ridicule Klindt, i said he scored zero for Workington at Edinburgh and were Poole fans concerned. I didnt ridicule him one bit. Funnily enough the decent Poole fans actually replied and had a good discussion Klindt has been fantastic for Poole this season and was robbed in the first staging of heat 15 i agree. Why you feel the need to twist peoples words is beyond me

Of course Poole were lucky , the vast majority of their fans realise that but as I’ve said you can only beat what’s in front of you. Somerset were down to 5 riders and one of those in Howarth was poor. Guest and r/r got 6 between them. And if you read posts I did say that Somerset had the only reserves that could trouble Pooles Allen and Covatti had a spell mid meeting where they simply ran out of steam. Has Somerset had a full team they wouldn’t have had 7 rides each and also only go with 3 riders in one heat! Im pretty sure the usual people will say it’s anti Poole because they can’t see past the end of their nose but it’s pretty obvious that a full Somerset side would have won. And the loss of Holder affected Somerset far more as they were running r/r already ..... don’t think Pooles reserves had to have 7 rides each to help cover losing Brady or running a race with only 1 rider so quite clearly that was a huge loss for Somerset Things have fallen nicely for Poole not their fault... no injuries all season..... a weakened team in the semi final and now they can replace Kurtz with someone who goes better at Lynn Obviously not good to see Kurtz and Holder injured but that crash effectively put Somerset on the back foot
-
Sensational ride by Harris there Just a shame that Somerset lose due to injury but that’s the sport and Poole can only beat what was in front of them Losing Jack Holder weakened Somerset as did only having 3 riders in heat 13. 2 points from a guest 4 from r/r 4 from IRR Poole didn’t exactly have much to beat With 2 fit teams it’s obvious Somerset would have walked it but that’s the way it goes Shame both semis were spoilt by injuries Now of course Poole can bring in a better rider than Kurtz Advantage Poole
-
Bad luck again for the Rebels tonight missing Summers. R/R for Summers not BWD means that Lawson can now not take a ride............that doesnt help Somerset one bit. Also Howarth for BWD means that they are replacing pretty much like for like around Wimborne Road this season, as Howarth has been poor this season....irrelevant of what he did last season. Shame Somerset have got this far then seen injuries to BWD and Summers possibly cost them the change of a first ever league Same as Belle Vue also had injuries at the wrong time......but thats not Kings Lynn or Pooles fault they can only beat whats in front of them. Lets hope that in the final both Kings Lynn and Poole will have 7 fit riders and the best team win , it would not be nice to see the final decided by injuries like the semis have been

King's Lynn v Belle Vue; Play-Off. semi final 2nd leg
Gavan replied to g13webb's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Mark Riss withheld his services which results in a ban He didn’t have a season ending injury and then rode again How people can compare the two is just farcical but expected from some. Do I like the fact he refused to ride over here? No But to compare it to the Hans Andersen injury is just daft -
Oh dear Im not all that worried what happens Monday to be honest. Poole are hot favourites as they were before a wheel was turned this season. They kept it close at Somerset and now surely cant throw it away from here. I would expect the final is the least the Poole fans would expect with the line up they had at the start of the season and having been fortunate enough to have missed any injurys as well
-
Ok so he is a heat leader and should be getting double figures. Blimey if we posted everytime a heat leader scored 9 or 10 there would be no room on the thread for anything else. Klindt riding at number one scores zero................so every right to be concerned Klindt at home scores 10.....................as he should................why would i post about that?

Gavan replied to g13webb's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
And? Irrelevent......Poole replaced a rider with a much better rider just it didnt work out. I doubt it..........most teams play fair ..............Dakota North anyone lol 100% spot on. -
Why would i mention them? They both number one riders for their teams so should be getting double figures. Or do you think its worthy to say Klindt got 10 at home from number one? Thats his job. Only worth pointing out if a number one is poor or a reserve does well. No headlines if a number one gets 10 or a reserve gets 4

Poole replaced a not fully fit Hans Andersen with a fully fit GP star .......it backfired -
Belle Vue vs Kings Lynn Playoff Semi 1st Leg 24/09/18
Gavan replied to LisaColette's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Didnt say he did Managers protect their riders same as they all do. Whats worse, Allitt pushing a mechanic up to the fence or Middlo backing Darcy up for all the stuff he did off track? Im not saying Allitt was right in what he did but it was no worse than Middlo sticking up for his rider for all of his off track issues -

Gavan replied to LisaColette's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Did i say Allit did nothing wrong? He removed the mechanic quite forcefully to the fence. I was simply pointing out all managers would protect their riders, as Middlo did with countless incidents with Ward
