Jonny the spud

If only the BSPA had allowed young riders to ride in the European U21's …. Extra experience on European tracks against strong opposition. Can't quite work out why permission was refused or indeed how it would have done anything other than improve our youngsters.

Now now, don't go writing common sense on here, although it sums up the issues perfectly, you can't go expecting those in power to take notice.

Promoters to think "hang on a minute, we've got some great English talent coming through. Let's channel some of the sponsorship we throw at average foreigners towards our boys instead" Or is that too radical an idea ?

Surely the "new broom" has been being prepared all season? He's had a year of hands on experience and no doubt been preparing a big list of common sense changes. This years AGM should be a breeze?

How long do we have to wait for the AGM ?

Quelle suprise

the magic pixies told him

Nice to see you make light of an injured rider Cock

49 pages and a large proportion of them whining and bitching, there's some sad 'uns on here. The 2nd leg hasn't even been run yet. If Poole get beaten they get beaten, but if they win the whiners will go into meltdown

There speaks someone who's never raced while injured. Tried to give it a go a few times myself and not been able to see it through.

Yes, funnily enough it was on Sky news, the BBC, ITV, Eurosport,most major sports networks and websites, google, yahoo and the bloke down the post office. oh sorry, no it wasn't. It was still just a few nutters on an obscure website

"but like the rest of the nation" = a few nutters on an internet forum

And how many points did TW score at that meeting ?

So you've read it have you ? care to share what it says ?

it was a pre booked meeting from last year

Yes he did, bad end to the season on the mechanical front.

Good couple of posts, unfortunately I see his ramblings even though I have him on ignore as people quote him. The way I look at it is thus.... You and a group of friends are out for the evening and chatting about speedway, Imagine one of them was talking in the way that Gavan posts . I think he'd be on his back crying within half an hour. Just because it's online, it doesn't give you the right to be a dick. you wouldn't put up with it in real life, why put up with it here?

Just when you thought it was safe to look at a Poole thread, out comes the window licker.

just an engine problem last night, it's an expensive sport this.

It's nice reading this thread at the moment, how long till it gets Gavan'd ?

Go back to your "well placed source" who told you that Adam is on a lot of money and a sizeable guarantee and tell him he's talking out of his arse. Adam is on the same as he was last year at Birmingham ( which even then was less than some other NL riders) But don't let the truth get in the way of a good old moan. As for boring, ask the fans who go to see him, the opposition riders who like to pitch themselves against him or his team mates who have been quoted as to how much he helps out in the pits. Sour grapes anyone ?

Why is it poole's fault that Lynn couldn't put a team together. Everyone knew that Harris was crooked. Why did they book him ? I know. Next time the pirates are on a 5-1 one of the riders will slow down to give the other team a chance .... There, feel better now ?

Newman wasn't a happy bunny on twitter last night, Middlo tweeted a photo of the broken spokes on Newman's front wheel from where it was hit by Lindgren.

I have three pubs and live music / DJ's play a very important part of what kind / now many clients come in, spend their money, and more importantly come back! If you think that the 15 minutes of racing is enough to keep a crowd entertained throughout 2 hours then you're seriously deluded. Get local bands / DJ's to send in copies of their work and offer them a set throughout the meeting. It won't cost a lot and some would probably do it free just for the exposure.
