  1. Laguna lifted, nothing more just hard racing. Realised his error and went over to Holder.
  2. Never a doubt Iversen excluded. Nasty high speed crash though.
  3. Rubbish. When Poole turned up other clubs had their biggest attendances. That’s a fact. Success is always viewed with bitterness and jealousy from rival fans and here’s a prime example.
  4. As I asked earlier, how did Matt Ford screw over Coventry and Peterbough. He didn’t Coventry were Screwed over by their portion. Trump caused many of the issues and was righty banned from the sport for life. If Frost thought he was being screwed over, why was he a friend of Matts and sponsored the Pirates over the following seasons?
  5. Far from that but a rider who has confidence issues. As I said not a fan of his even though he rode for Poole for several seasons. Found he struggled with pressure and went awol when it really mattered. Ipswich away in the semis last season the prime example. He's a good rider and will serve BV well next season and their fans will like him. But never a GP rider and his level is heat leader in the U.K. and second string Extraleague/heat leader league One Poland. Also, who is Lindsay, stop being pathetic.
  6. Clearly under pressure. Not a fan of his but he is clearly a lot better than today. And he finally got his act together as that ride showed.
  7. Seen a fair bit of him. A reserve in the U.K. and rightly so. Does a little better in Poland where you have to crank the throttle wide open. Have yet to see anything to change my but to give the lad a chance I am willing to change my opinion. Had one good meeting when he came in to replace Kurtz, butas faded since. A mediocre Aussie rider, nothing to see here, move on.
  8. Lindsey is an average Aussie. I don’t see him being anything other than a grating tart ala Fricke.
  9. Tungate having a good season. Great race! Yes as a Poole fan, I age watchedKurtz enough to know he is a Schlein, not a Holder. Goes AWOL when it matters and isn’t mentally strong. Having a mare season well below his standard Though. His confidence has taken a pounding. Lindsey is no better than Kurtz.
  10. Another poorish meeting from Torun. A couple of decent races. CH not happy with Musielak in his first when he Pole left him no room. Kildemand a real spent force.
  11. I must have a short memory. Please explain how Matt Ford was trying to put Coventry and Peterborough out of business, “without a care in the world”.
  12. Can you think of any other sport where a player is rag dolled and back out 5 minutes later? A footballer would be out for 6-8 weeks.
  13. Nasty crash. Hope Pepe is OK. Holta lifted and rightly excluded.
  14. Lindgren quietly going about his business but by god I find him boring.
  15. Doyle has gone the same way as Milik. Down. Had a good few seasons but time has caught up. No longer a rider to fear. The old guard on their way out and being replaced by younger, fearless riders.
  16. Not a fan of Jack Holder. CH different gravy still got it. Batchelor should tell the Rybnik manager he is a wker and tell them to stick it where the sun don’t shine. Milik is clearly off form yet gets all his rides? Yet Batchelor battled with NP and gets taken out? The manager needs sacking.
  17. Rybnik manager is a twit. Bachelor not being used Is a joke.
  18. Torun in a division lower, have a stronger team than Rybnik.
  19. Nicki Pedersen is showing good form. I thought his light was fading but he has put new batteries in and his form overall is very good. Another Greg Hancock he is as tough as old boots and doesn’t take prisoners. I, like many, have never been a fan but recently have mellowed to the guy. He seems also to be less “Everybody hates me but I don’t care”, to a more likeable charactor. Perhaps because at his age he has realised he won’t be world champion again.
  20. That was in about 2002 and banter! Most took it as the joke it was and at the time and there was no real threat at the time. Like any speedway fan I didn’t want to see Coventry close. I mean, it was normally very easy points for us. And I hope we shall hear good news soon that they will return to action.
