  1. Klindt walking track no way is he race fit. One ride then pull out? Double r/r? Hope he can get around.
  2. Opening early because of the bottleneck caused by stewards who don't have a clue going through old grannies bags looking for bombs. The fact that Ethel and Flo have been going to Poole since 1948 has no bearing as they pat the old girl down. You could be right on the scoreline Skidder. Bjerre is gone if he gates. Cook is on fire and Fricke is due a big score. Worrall normally wins heat one. Anyone with an ounce of knowledge will also know Bewley will be in heat 14 unless Smith is having a blinder. Would have had Holder at 4 and Klindt at 2.
  3. If Klindt struggles we will be in trouble. At least if Starke continues on from last week he can have one of Klindts rides. Expecting Starke to have 7 rides tonight. Good weather, the two most exciting teams in the league clashing, only a tenner to get in. What's not to like? Hopefully a decent crowd at the stadium and watching on BT Sports. Looking forward to this.
  4. Because Zengota is a 28 day injury replacement. Always was so completely legal. KK back for the Kings Lynn meeting.
  5. Looks like we have two Cooks from Ipswich trolling the Poole threads.
  6. He did have quite a nasty spill in heat 14. Pepe rode into him and they came off with Zengotas hand going into Pepes back wheel. He rode in the rerun but was well tailed off for the point. Hopefully KK is back for our next meeting.
  7. Came out for the rerun but tailed off. Caught his hand in Pepes back wheel in heat 14.
  8. Both Bjerre and Fricke on fire this afternoon in Poland. Brilliant ride by Fricke to catch and pass Zmarzlik on the line. If he brings that tomorrow we could be in serious trouble. Bjerre no doubt will be gate and gone.
  9. Paid 12 for KK this afternoon. Would have been paid 14. He was winning one heat by a mile when Iversen fell. Got 5-1'd after making a howler of a gate in the rerun. Oh, and he had Lindgren from the back as well, on Lindgrens home track. So Brum can stick that in his pipe!
  10. Definately lost his edge. Looks almost uninterested and is just making up the numbers. His riding is predictable. You know he is just going to go his trademark cutback when on the outside gates. You know he is going to be passed by riders with far more energy. Looks to me Woffindens star has dimmed considerably on the world stage and he doesn't know how to get it back. He has won it twice and the way it's looking that's your lot.
  11. Then the criteria needs to be changed. Can't have an Aussie, (and thats what he is regardless of acu lisence or passport) taking a British riders spot or god forbid the British wildcard. Make sure rules are changed for 2018 please bspa.
  12. Well done Magic! After a terrible last year he has bounced back brilliantly. Great gp.
  13. Would run the order like this. Kurtz Klindt Zengota Holder Andersen Starke Shanes Holder would then cover heat 14 and Klindt if not fit covered by Kurtz in most of his rides.
  14. Brilliant match race. Dirty Lindgren. Well done Magic.
  15. I said from the word go Schlein should not have been anywhere near the British final, or semis for that matter. British championship for British riders. Simple as that. It makes no odds whether Schlein has an ACU license or not. Rider completing in the British Championship should be allegable to ride for TeamGB in the SCW, and hold British passports. Schlein has no interest in representing TeamGB and could have taken the British Wildcard for Cardiff. That would have been an utter disgrace. Next year Brits only, with the top 6 guys seeded to the final. Two semis with five from each qualifying. That way Woffinden will have no excuse, Lambert will be seeded, and the lineup will be the best available to boost the attendance at the track and viewing figures.
  16. No there were better races. Heat 15 was a cracker of a race......for Liecester as Riss then a lap later King made some blinding passes of Holder. Starkes races from the back were also excellent.
  17. You can't say that Skidder! Some bloke shuffling around in the pits wearing a mac, talking gibberish and looking like Dustin Hoffman said it was bad! The rest of us thought it was great racing.
  18. Just watched the meeting. He was quite wobbly to be honest. Leading his first ten picked off by both riders, one being Karol Baran. (Where the hell has he been must be getting on but suddenly full of fast bikes and hard riding) got better as the meeting progressed but wobbly all the same.
  19. Not sure what your design platform is, but the quickest way would be have the four colours in boxes and click and drag the colour order. Alternatively designate 4 buttons with a colour dedicated to each button.
  20. Never seem to be able to get rid of that do they. Everytime it is taken out it reappears several weeks later. Must something to do with the way the riders come into the corner.
  21. A big meeting on Monday at Poole live on TV. Should be a thriller. Belle Vue come with an even stronger team than the one that is sweeping all before them with the new signing of Tungate in place of Sedgmen. Belle Vue will be at full strength. Poole still suffering from injuries and KK should be back in a couple of weeks. Zengota has so far proved to be an inadequate replacement. Pirates have also missed Klindt and his big scores. We have had no proper cover and he really is needed back. Ifhe remains unfit r/r to cover, which has to be better than some of the guests. A very good time for Belle Vue to come and think it will be a struggle for Pirates to get a result out of the meeting this time. Entrance for adults is just £9.99. A bargain so hopefully a decent crowd for an off night meeting.
  22. Lol! Racing was good last night. Were you there? Some cracking races with Starke, Riss, King, Kurtz, Holder all blasting around.
  23. Nonsense and you know it. Matt Ford seems to have seen the writing on the walk with Chris Holder last year. Even on Tuesday he was replaced in one ride by the reserve and faired no better last night. Doubt very much we will see Chris back at Poole.
  24. Wasn't sure the club had announced it yet.
