  1. You say it was the greatest come back ever. But only a few mo ths ago we was 16 points up at heat 8 and managed to not win against you. So it isnt a shock. Poznan let a 30 point lead go last week. And Edinburgh have let a 30 point lead go. So it's no surprise. But well done Poole. You can never write them off
  2. Hopefully mate. 35 years old and I've seen 2 trophys. 3 if u count 1993 but I was only 9 do dont remember that.
  3. Yeah. That's even more baffling. We picked 2&4 so knew gate 1 was bad. So surely we see if we pick 2&4 we will have gate 1 more. So should have picked gate 1&3 in heat 1. Do they not do forward thinking in speedway
  4. Well Last night..... what's more disappointing is that we was actually in the meeting at the half way stage. Then we capitulated. I had to walk half way through heat 14. To angry and couldn't see them celebrate. We had gate 1, (9 times) in the 15 races and gate 1 was horrific. Not 1 win all night. Might aswell have not shown up at the tapes if you was on that. I think we had it in the last 4 races aswell which explains a bit of the capitulation. I was impressed with jye again. Deffo improved so should be at reserve next year. The track was poor sorry to say last night. Riders all over the shop (mainly ours) There just diddnt seem to be any team spirit. When our riders won a race. No acknowledgement, no celebration no nothing. You watch the Swindon lads and they just loved it. They wanted to be there. We diddnt. So season over on a whimper. AGAIN. year after year same thing. I still love this club though and support them through the tough times. But its wearing very thin now
  5. Been in them to many times mate. At least twice a year. They are legendary
  6. Should be a very good crowd. Coach load of aces fans. And a coach load of berwick fans. And berwick fans make lots of noise. So hopefully will be on our side seen as we have jye
  7. Originally I was. But the hotel in cardiff that I had booked for 2 days cancelled on me at short notice so ended up just getting the 1 night on saturday at cardiff. So will be a drive to Swindon and a drive home then drive to cardiff on saturday unfortunately. Otherwise it would have been a full weekend
  8. Yep. Like yourselfs theres a coach full. I'll be there. But driving down
  9. We thought that when we took him to wolves. But......
  10. Is it true ricky wells has stood down from Poole. Anyone else heard the same
  11. We could have just used the rr anyway. Which qould have resulted in bjerre getting a ban and we could have used s guest thursdsy. So no difference really by saying he was injured
  12. Nope. We dont get a facility. If we use rr bjerre gets a ban. Might aswell get the ban. Only 2 matches left
  13. It looks like kenneth will miss the meeting as his flight doesnt land till half 7. (If that's the flight hes on)
  14. I know a handful and all you got to do is look on the various social media sites like facebook and twitter
  15. I must say aswell. There are 60 Swindon fans travelling up. Fantastic support and will show us up. They will outnumber us today
  16. There are loads stating they are not going. Will be the smallest ever final crowd. Not sure why. As you say. It's a final. And a chance to win a trophy. I'll be at both legs. Come on aces
  17. We scored more at Peterborough than swindon did. So in my head that means an easy belle vue win.
  18. I have collated some information on rain offs this year. Who's track is wettest. And who's track is driest. These are the postponement, some may not be due to waterlogged tracks Belle vue aces 1 and colts 1 =2 Ipswich 1 Lynn 1 Peterborough 1 Poole 2 Swinson 2 Wolves 1 Berwick 3 Birmingham 6 Eastbourne 0 Edinburgh 5 Glasgow 6 Leicester 3 and cubs 2 = 5 Newcastle 2 Redcar 2 Scunthorpe 4 Sheffield 2 Somerset 5 Cradley (@ wolves) 1 IOW 1 (challenge fixture) Kent 3 Mildenhall 1 Plymouth 8 Stoke 4 So as you can see. If your an eastbourne fan then you have least to worry about the weather. And if your birmmingham or north of the boarder then should be more worried. Birmmingham though were alot of dodgy postponements. Most of the postponements were in august with 18, june had 17 and july 10, while March had 0 surprisingly. Although not many fixtures. Each clubs loosepney postponing matches. So how much money have clubs lost
  19. Mark builds bloody good teams. Every year no one can complain when season starts. Hes brilliant at it. But then he just doesnt improve it which you have to do.
  20. As superace says, it was small margins. But in a league where there is 7 teams only, small margins have to be thwarted. What's annoying is that it's always silly mistakes that cost us, which I suppose makes a change for it to be because of injuries. The problems started with losing that 16 point lead. (Still fuming at that) Then wells and berge not being replaced when we was under the limit and had wells on 6 plus average and berge on a high 4. If we got rid of both we had like 11+ points to play with. If we did that we would be champions on my view. Wolves came at the wrong time for us (right time for them) that was just unlucky really. So lemon needs to learn from his mistakes in loyalty. And I'm sure he will do as missing out on play offs is a huge disaster for belle vue with our overheads, Next year will be interesting. Because while teams will have to dismantle there team we can keep the same 7 riders if we wanted. Not that I would. But I'd possibly keep 6 and swap berge for a 5+ man. FRICKE- Great year. Proper no1 for us. Exciting to watch WORRALL- consistently inconsistent BEWLEY- Ppl say his head and injuries took its toll. I'd say he was just slow this year. Especially at NSS LIDSEY- Great find. Good at home. Will get better away. BJERRE - mr consistent, always reliable. Seem to fade off end of meetings a little though towards end of season BERGE - worst rider to ever grace british league away from NSS. Good at home though.
