  1. Another, think of winning at all costs Don't matter if there's 3 in the league as long as Poole win it....
  2. If Lynn want the plays offs, they have to replace Kasper who is on a 4.00. Maybe it's a year or 2 to soon. Even Kev Doolan, until the end of the season.
  3. I wouldn't think of it out of respect..But it is Poole
  4. I can't see anything but one major league, and the NL.. Teams just can't afford to pay riders as they do now. The crowds don't allow it..The pay in Poland is such that the top guys are asking big bucks (for the UK) to ride. Take Lynn. Bangers/stox attract good crowds.Maybe £14-£15 to get in. Not far off of speedway prices. The drivers pay to drive !! .The winners get a £10 trophy...and a lap of honour. Meetings last 4 -5 hours...Pretty good VFM..The kids love it. If it wasn't for this I suspect Lynn would be in trouble. We have got to cut our cloth accordingly. Some riders will say that the money is not there, so they will have to earn elsewhere. Some supporters will turn their back... If it is a semi pro sport at first then so be it. If you cut down rider costs(in the uk),some will work for less money. My mate, hes 58 now lol, says you can ride a Weslake all season and service it twice !! ..How many meetings back in the day where great with the lower powered bikes. Still good racing, and you could have dirt on the track..
  5. Only 2 leagues next season.A big one and a NL one. The whats called championship now used to be a huge league. It's dwindling away. One top league and £15 maybe ?
  6. Sad day ,if true. Hope your source is wrong, but I don't think you would post it, if it wasn't good info.
  7. Well this meeting don't count towards averages, so there is trouble at mill..TBH SS, it's looking like it might of been a Rebels win if Vissing where there. Honest opinion from Steve . Bit mind boggling these Poole performances though
  8. Now saying on the Rye website as meeting postponed It is with great regret that we have to announce that, due to unforeseen circumstances, tomorrow's fixture against Swindon is postponed.
  9. Bit insensitive at this early stage.
  10. Ford deserves some credit as well as Middlo. He would be the one on the calculator if that where the case
  11. It's now on their website. No reason given. Clocks still counting down though
  12. I know it's not fair, but i'd watch a TV meeting at the NSS every week.
  13. If you wanted Wright for TJ,you would have to get rid of 2. Example Kasper on a 4 and say Kerr and replace with Wright and a rider around a 3.5 point ave(not looked at the aves.Just an example)..
