Bald Bloke

Whats Pooles average gate this season..1,500?

I enjoyed watching that on TV.Second half livened up.Shame about the rain.Credit to the Lions for the fight back. But the attendance looked like a few hundred.Maybe some out of camera.

The heats after that looked so even,So with gates 1-3,with the riders on show,i think it was worth a shot.

Can't argue with that.But most seem to use it as a parade time.

I suppose its easy for us sitting at home.But under pressure when everyone's eyes are on you,not so easy.But......It's his job,and I don't think he had any better options in the 2 races after.Will be viewed as a mistake by most.

The teams crap.Better than they are showing at the moment though

I agree to a degree that his riders" weren't going".But as Kelv said they had 1-3,and the following heats didn't look any better.Seems like a nice bloke but nice don't cut it.

Siht happens

Just For Men must of been out of stock.

Feel sorry for the fans.I don't suppose his team mates are best pleased either.Leaving the team to struggle. Holder will be quids in. And if Rathbone's wallet has expanded because of this,it's disgraceful

Agree.

Jorgensen said: “It was raining more or less all night but I was told we had a chance of winning or a point when I was sent out for Heat 15. Until then I had just tried to get on with my riding. “I was happy with my performance, there was just that one heat where I touched the tapes but the rest was spot on. I made some really good starts and had some good speed. “It was hard out there. In Heat 15 I had to take off my goggles, I had already gone through all my tear-offs. It was not clever but I needed to see, especially when we were chasing those two points.”

If correct.No comparision.Different offences.

Wanted Rye just for the play off push. Was'nt there, but feel KK and Harris to a much lesser extent cost them.Robbo 11+1 and Scott 15+2 did the Rockets proud. For the Lions Bates 13+2 outstanding..King 11+2...Newman 7 from 3 completed rides.MPT 7 from 4 did a job.

Most wanted him back on a 5.5 when u sacked him

I see

Can't argue with that.

I take it your there

Ok..Chill

A current engine mounted upright wouldn't work imho.The power characteristics are wrong. Most engines are short stroke and produce big (up to 75 bhp) power high up the rev range(maybe 11,000 rpm..) When they hit dirt they take off,upright or not. I'm no expert but you can soften off the motor but its still a short stroke revving it's nads off. It's more complicated than sitting your engine upright. Long stroke,60bhp and lower revving might help on deep/tricky tracks,but no riders gonna try it. Cost a lot with no guarrentee

You could of said that in the first place

In July?

​​​Why ever was this thread started in July ffs

You will see some Poole fans wanting him back now for next year again on a low ave .

Tinted visor works for me on the road bike.Seems simple.I must be missing something
