ouch

I think if they redeclare then I’d opt for the original lineup.

Hope he’s not out long, big blow that. Maybe get Zagar, Hougaard & Smith in place of Worrall, Drozdz & Etheridge. Lol.

Charity Shield.

7 & 9 has also seen a slow start in the UK. Craig has changed his back room set up massively so I’m putting it down to early teething problems. The people he has now should be able to react quickly and they will be aware more than Craig how cut throat the Poles can be. I’ll remain optimistic for now.

It wasn’t discussed at the AGM. It surfaced following Zagar’s tweet about returning at the end of November.

Funny, when all I post is fact. Over to you.......

You say discretionary I say fluidity. Glad we can agree. Sole purpose - no, that’s just silly. I like it when speedway fans call you out and you say show us the rule. We then quote a rule for you to find and suddenly it doesn’t matter. Discretionary way to stick to your guns, lol.

It’s next to the rule that says you can achieve an average after only 2h & 2a meetings (Max Clegg) or the rule where a club is fined and docked 3 points for a bogus call off. Last year a rider was stopped from riding for seven days after missing a meeting due to illness. The rule is in the rulebook in bold meaning its new for this year, even though it was applied last year? Some “rules” are written some are not as this allows fluidity in their interpretation dependant on which team is involved.

Two promotions openly discussed the fictitious rule. One promotion kept quiet about it and one promotion had to change their plans. The rest weren’t bothered as it didn’t effect them.

Josh was always the lad to beat when on their little MX machines over twenty years ago. I always thought he was destined for greatness. I cannot put my finger on why whilst riding a reserve last year he only managed an away average of 4.00 and an overall of just 4.68. I’m wondering if Lemon went for Starke because even though his average is only slightly higher at 5.08 he attained it whilst riding in the main body of the team, where he will be for these forthcoming fixtures? He might be of the opinion it’s harder in the top five?

About half the fixtures fall during school holidays and by adding in a couple of treat late nights you can still take kids to most fixtures.

If it helps Poole from going under then I’m with his decision to drop them.

I think there will be enough room for 500-1000 fans to get a view of the entire race. That’s all that is needed these days - unfortunately.

So called by Poole fans, lol. They are the Poole team of 21st century top level UK speedway. Knock yourselves out. Pmsl.

Drozdz has ridden for us. He got injured whilst riding for us.

2009. “I think he’s found his level in the NL”. 2012. “Cook is just a top tier second string, he’ll never be anything else”. 2014. “Did well to make the rostrum, he just doesn’t have the mentality or skill to clinch top spot”. (British Final) 2017. “Can’t see Cook troubling the scores today”. (GP challenge). 2018.............

Not speedway fans. Just trolls that hit various sites stirring it. Place on ignore as the only way to defeat them is not to feed them. Also there’s a good chance they are the same person.

They proved that a few years back when they were happy to use cheating as a bona fide method of winning. Funniest think the other year when they were called cheating scumbags they came back with, “ A, we’re not scumbags”! LOL

Ian would be turning in his grave if he knew of that comparison. He knew the rule book inside out and when he saw the video from the Poole get together where Ford and Russell were seen laughing following the quick re write of the rules to stop us using Jason on a low average (established at Poole), he formed an opinion then that never changed. “He wants to check the rule book lol” I’ll never forget that.

Quite fine. Concerning.

The theory put forward was that that CVS and Ford put out the rumour when in actual fact it was lack of funds. Wolves plight is well known and with the unaffordabilty of the team suits it seems money is also short at Poole. I know we can have some strong banter but I don’t want to see Poole fold. Signs aren’t good. I’m going to make the effort to visit in a couple of weeks as the opportunity to do this is slipping away.

Wrighty and Doyle had a terrific race. You wouldn’t think they were team mates. Great stuff.

I think it’s about the same as having a rider that shouldn’t be there leading the race by half a lap against his inexperienced opponents. I think your problem it you don’t like seeing a brummie half a lap behind but if it’s the opposition then tough. Time to move up a league and don’t the door hit you on your ass on the way out.

There was only one club due to sign a GP rider following a years absence.

Last year it was 2h 2a as per Max Clegg. Not seen any amendment.
