poole keith

You could say kennett and Kyle are like for like(kennett not so popular haha) so you've swapped mc diomed and Harrison for zac and kerr,good not to be favourites,going to be an interesting season.Really hoping next seasons championship can be competitive and unpredictable, even as a poole supporter I don't think it's any good for british speedway for any team to continually dominate.

Obviously the averages are calculated correctly so are accurate blue,what would be interesting if you've got the time would be to list how the bonus points were allocated between them when they were in same heat? Might give a truer reflection

Cairns "high"average is partly a consequence of lawsons "lower" average,you couldn't have both on "good' averages,so lawson might be the better call for next yr

I'm happy to just go with whatever team is decided on,would love ben cook in the team,but would indicate he's not pushing on to the next levels but happy to settle at Poole in lower tier speedway, good for Poole tho

Oh yes I'm sure all plymouth fans are really worried about points limits,pretty irrelevant compared to potentially losing a speedway team,does this mean that if poole closed you would only be concerned about the effect it would have on the points limit for the remaining team??

Hope plymouth can sort something out

On the curb theme some moto gp circuits on some bend use what are called the "misano curbs"(named after circuit they were first used)which are curbs with slight corrugations enough to slow the riders down so no advantage can be gained but still stay safe, might not be feasible in speedway or might be worth thinking about,will require a massive leap for speedway to drag itself out of the 1950s tho!

Make it like moto gp or world superbikes (proper motorbike racing)any part of the wheel touches out of bounds part of track results in penalty

Whatever is going to unfold regarding poole stadium, guarantee it wont be straightforward,without the development potential it would be easy,council don't want to get involved,matt fird puts local consortium together to takeover the lease of whole stadium.However add the possibility of maybe 600/800flats and it becomes a serious dogfight.

Is it normal pricing at poole next Wednesday?

Surely must be a great speedway final,just has all the ingredients, as someone who was taken to pennycross late 50s early 60s(mostly walking from peverell) really supporting glads tonight

Poole have no value, no security,nothing to sell,matt ford had it for sale,no takers

Good fishing Jan,got a few going with that one

Agree Neil,you could have 50,000 signatures.no money no speedway, or just 10 signatures but pay the man tomorrow and you got speedway

Why don't people put their names to these statements? and why do you even need a petition, speak to spedeworth and pay the man all the money up front like he's (rightly) insisting on and your in business.

Anybody any idea where the statement came from,assume it's not galliards,if it was current speedway promotion they would have put their name to it you'd think?

Wouldn't Bailey signing for div 2 gb team be a massive backwards step in his career ??

Haha excellent or the more traditional "fish slapping contest"

Poland won't force any rider to do anything,it will be a clause in their contract, they don't have to sign it . I believe when Damon Hill was driving f1 for Williams,Damon who was a dead keen biker had a clause forbidding him to ride motorbikes (risk of injury)

If poland bring in those conditions and if they apply to the league they're both riding in and if it's only one league not one country (lot of iffs)do we think they would chose prem or championship?

Agree in principle bitza but improving the prem is neither possible nor affordable, just so easy to weaken the championship so that will be the route

Not sure about this preliminary team building by the fans! If some supposedly influential people in the sport get their way and significantly widen the gap between prem and champ leagues then easiest way to do that is reduce championship points limit say by 3pts!! haha or more ouch!

In any sport I support the adherence to the rulebook so if poole have broken the rules then I agree the governing body should forbid the signing, if theyve not broken any rules then any moaning is just sour grapes

If it does happen don't see how anybody can moan about it,if matt ford heard that riss might be returning, then a pretty simple decision to wait,every promoter would have done the same thing, well you would hope so !

Big mistake, maybe he doesnt want to but matt ford should be top of anybodys list for people to be involved in the running of british speedway.
