  1. Clearly you have no idea of the rules. Team manager and captain only ones allowed on track to support injured rider. As josh was in the heat, Worrall went and checked on his mate. Riders would just get in the way of medics.
  2. We have readingracer2017 posting directly after mff. Both saying the same thing in the same style.
  3. Nasty tumble for Neilsen who in the crucial heat 12 had battled through to third to give Poole a 4-2 when he lifted coming out of the 4th bend and came off the back. Not sure how his ankle got injured. Did it get clipped by Heeps? Typically in the rerun Greaves got a superb gate and couldn’t be caught. Partly cost Poole the win but you can look back at Brady allowing himself to be pipped on the line by Schlein as other points thrown away. The track tonight was the slickest I have seen it in quite a few years. The riders are said to have requested it but there was a blue groove on the 4th bend, something not seen for at least 5-6 seasons. If riders want it that slick they need to be able to get out of the starts and in the first 7 heats Wolves won 6 of them. Same as last week against Rye. We just don’t have a number one at the moment to lead the way. Brady would make good backup to Holder but it’s time to look elsewhere. In the first half of the meeting we were pathertic. Last out of the starts time and again. But from heat 8 the team woke up and we saw some fighting spirit. Lets now hope there are changes to be had. Matt said in tonight program to bring in Magic or similar would cost three times the gate money every week.
  4. Stephan Neilsen into ambulance. On gas and air by starting gate. Best wishes on a speedy recovery. Nasty. Front wheel lifted throwing him off back down home straight. Hope it’s not serious.
  5. When the riders want the track slick, they need to at least gate. Dreadful, pathetic effort.
  6. There does seem to be some worried sounding posts, especially from Swindon fans. Who has been spotted in town today? Emil? Magic? Lol! The weather is set fair. Hopefully no late afternoon storms bubbling up.
  7. Really? Thought Kurtz covered what Cook would have scored easily to be honest. Josh is off form so a strange booking but he got two race wins which was more than expected to be honest. Unfortunate with Garrity but would never give him a guest booking after last years diabolical effort at Somerset for Poole.
  8. I watched both meetings. Sundstrom was very unlucky in his meeting. In his first ride he was with Wozniak team riding. But Wozniak didn’t look once for his partner and on the third lap rode wide squeezing Sundstrom who lost all speed, had to adjust racing line and lost speed which sent him to the back. In his next he was second but entering bend three of lap two Musiliak tried to drop it on him, Sunstroms dirt deflector touched Musiliaks front wheel and the Pole did a dying swan ala Kildemand after thinking about it for a second or rwo. Extremely harsh call which incensed the home support. He was worth a much better score but that’s speedway for you. In the other meeting Cook got a paid max but the opposition were absolutely pish.
  9. Absolutely, 100 percent true. If Brady had made it through would the troll have written, “Good to see Brady Kurtz going through to the next round of gp qualifiers.” Never in a month of Sundays. The bloke is a troll, pure and simple. Don’t know why you even bother to reply.
  10. Disagree. For those that work for someone, Sundays can be a day of dread knowing they have to bow to their boss in the morning. Monday speedway gives something to look forward to. Tuesdays in Sweden seems to work ok. Poole on a Wednesday is fine. Promotions just need to promote.
  11. Seems strange Rye have gone for Emil when Stefan is available and on very good form. I spoke to him about his performance at Swindon for Poole and he said he was extremely nervous before the meeting and it got the better of him. He seems to have calmed those nerves and has been Poole’s best rider. Suprised Rye have gone the other way.
  12. Musielak chose to put his front wheel there. Anyway, Karczmarz 2, Lindgren 0.
  13. Looked like Sundstrom was well in front going into the bend and Musiliak leaned then laid it down. Crowd think the same.
  14. Wozniak needs to look for his partner. Never looked once to see Sundstrom on his outside then took his line to send Sundstrom to the back.
  15. The opposition was very, very bad. Watched it and it was a one sided borefest. Still, you can only beat what is in front of your and Cook did that easily. Should boost his confidence as well as his pay packet.
  16. Got the same issue. Picture breaking up badly today. Been fine for the last couple of weeks now this.
  17. Fair enough but who would have thought the whole team would have misfired as one?
  18. I rest my case. Diagnosis confirmed.
  19. He can’t help it. It’s a personality disorder. Google “someone who says the same thing over and over again”. It’s a bit OCD with dementia thrown in. Rather than take the P out of Gavan we should sympathise with his condition.
  20. The Middleditch in the Magnificient Seven is Ken Middleditch.
  21. This forum wouldn’t exist if it wasn’t for a bit of banter. It would be more of a borefest than it is now. People should never be afraid of throwing down the gauntlet. Being afraid of a sentence coming back at you is ridiculous. And I believe by the end of the season we will smash Swindon. Bookmark it ready to throw it back!
