  1. Drabik saw off Emil there superbly. Glad to see Janowski start to look decent again after a pretty dreadful 2016. Thought this would have been closer but Piotr has been rubbish tonight. Pedersen throwing points away left right and centre.
  2. Mick Horton didn't rate him and had no plans to bring him back. Just seen the very best of Woffinden in that heat. A great race.
  3. Lewis has done very well. Far better than most including me expected. But I think Kyle should come back. Having seen both ride there's little between them but just feeel Kyle has the edge. He seems more supple on a bike. Lewis tends to look a little stiff. Whatever the decision Lewis has done a very good job and I am sure if Matt can't offer him a place he will be snaffled up pretty quickly by another club.
  4. So the massive project is that he has got his wife pregnant? Really? Thought that was the norm. Hardly a massive project. Building a house is a massive project. Starting a company from scratch and employing 100 people is a massive project. Having a baby is not. It happens to most people, from those on the dole to those with plenty of money. The result is sleepless nights and lots of joy, but massive project it is not. Its just life. If you stick your dinkle in a certain place enough times that is what happens. What a let down. Thought he had done a deal with the bspa, and was finally going to give something back to the country that gave him the break in the first place, by helping Neil Vatcher train up the kids. But then it was obvious it was nothing to do with anyone else. With Woffinden it seems its always woffy woffy woffy.
  5. Disagree. Hans has been in dive bombing mode most of this season. He has come charging under riders entering the first and third bends since the start of the season. Quite agressive to be honest.
  6. No there is nothing clearly wrong at Poole. Hans went to get changed but spent nearly ten minutes talking to the tractor guy about grading. That clearly delayed him getting changed and back for the track walk.
  7. I put my username and password and logged in on my ipad. Then I went into kodi (standalone box) and it allowed me access. So their system logged my ip address and allowed me in without having to add a username and password on that device.
  8. Yes all working fine thanks. Workson ip address. Didn't have to do anything and it worked!
  9. The way KASPER woryna is riding he would be a great addition. Ripping it up tonight on tv. A young lad who wanted to ride over here. And connections with the club through his father as well.
  10. I am now up and running with wizja.tv on kodi. Their website is diabolical. But as they are stealing all the links like sportsnationhd I guess they don't give a crap. I don't think the feed is hd. More a good sd with no buffering and a cut above the internet streams. A shame sportsnationhd don't cover these channels. They do cover virtually everything else.
  11. Ok just paid a tenner for a more reliable polish speedway source. A code arrived straight away by email. Now where the hell does this code go? Their website is absolutely sh8te. I have been going around in circles now. Total frustration.
  12. Hans went to get changed just before they came out for the track walk.
  13. The system is working and riders are coming through. More could be done granted but we are on a very limited budget compared to Poland. Its just the way it is. We don't have unlimited track time, neither do we have unlimited finances to spend on the youngsters. I have often wondered whether the bspa should apply to the Sports Council for funding.
  14. They have commited to Neil Vatcher who is doing an excellent job with the youngsters. He has gone on record saying that nearly everything he has asked for he has got. Perhaps Woffinden should contact Neil Vatcher and offer his services. Neils in charge of the kids.
  15. No good looking to Janowski his form is as bad as KKs. Same applies to Lindback. Options like Milik or Madsen not likely to happen as they don't need the extra meetings. Not easy at all to find a big hittervwilling to come over at short notice.
  16. I see you are back trying to defend Woffinden. Not many left now wanting to do that but your perogative. Most have seen the way he has treated British speedway with distain and have made their minds up on the guy. And yes you are right, if he turned up at Poole it would certainly P me off, though start to put things right with a return to the country that taught him how to ride a bike.
  17. Never heard of Matt Ford paying a rider a wage instead of points money.
  18. Holder scored tonight exactly as expected. He repeated his performance as he scored similar in the playoffs for Poole at Monmore last season. He hates the place.
  19. Because he has a full calendar at weekends with his grasstrack and longtrack meetings.
  20. All easier said than done. Its not as though we could entice Saifudinov, Kildemand or Piotr Pawlick to slot us into their schedule for this season. KK was improved at Rye House but tonight he just didn't want to know, wobbling around for a lap before feigning an ef. Not sure he actually had an ef in heat 13 or the fact that Morris got a bit close.
  21. Good god. Just written a match report and the page reloaded and I lost the lot. Not going to type it all again. Well done to Swindon fully deserved. You cant be 15-29 down and expect to win a meeting. Poole riders pathetic in first half like NL wobblers. No excuse as the Swindon riders were two bike lengths up going into the first bend, then pulled away. Useless would be an understatement. Track was there to be ridden. Poole came back in the second half but were always going to run out of heats. KKs ef in heat 13 cost us a draw we scarcely deserved. KK easily beaten by Wilson Dean. Andersen easily beaten by wacjanek. Ridiculous and pathetic. No excuse. Its OK to come to the party in the second half if you have enough in the tank to cruise through but it was never going to happen. Kyle is hopefully back next week but Kerr never let the team down once and even though he was terrible in his first rides got his act together. I hope he is picked up by another club as he has done a good job. Well done again to Swindon. Took 100% advantage of the conditions early on to just hang on to a deserved victory.
  22. We have been clueless out of the start. Swindon riders just mullering us. Hans being beat by Wajenek sums it up. Track now slickening off and Poole starting to come back but too late now. Have to say Swindon deserve this. No excuses.
