No problem - I have never suggested that Kyle lacked ambition. I wasn't even antagonistic in my reply to you and I clearly suggested it was my opinion that they were both better than a reserve berth. A lot will depend on the rules for next year whether either, both or neither will be reserves. For the record, I was only on a windup about cheating scumbags although it did seem appropriate at the time and since it has been shown to have spectacularly backfired on Poole - there is no point in continuing it (except if paperboy annoys me)! How dare you - how very dare you! You think it is acceptable to call someone a cretin?

What are you on about? I simply said that both Ellis and Newman were good enough to be in the 1-5 and then it was claimed I was either ignorant or a troll - so how do you deduce this to be breaking rank and what rank are you talking about? Some things never change - here I thought you would be humble given that your team were well stuffed on Wednesday and your subsequent disappearance but clearly I was expecting too much, you are still name calling! I think most people have been restrained in not gloating too much but quite frankly you don't deserve that level of respect because your boys took one helluva beating and were made to look third rate. But the saying about "cheats never prosper" has never been more apt!

Why is it ignorant to have an opinion that differs from yours? If you ask me you are the ignorant one!

KK would be good. It will be interesting to see how the Poland situation turns out and hopefully Doyle and others will take their place next year.

You finished licking your wounds yet? Just to put it into context - it was only a speedway meeting and hopefully it has brought you back down to earth.

Ok we will have to agree to differ - unless he ever comes back to the EL. It seems Doyle was a bit of a prima donna but he has certainly got himself sorted now. Who would you want to lead Poole next season if Noddy moves on?

I didn't say he was a bad signing but Matt obviously thought he had the potential to be world champion and a regular for Poole ahead of Doyle. Doyle has shown that he is committed to the EL and on the verge of becoming world champion - the same cannot be said for Magic.

Good bit of business by Matt Ford - swapping Doyle for Maciej - NOT!

How on earth do you get Newman and Ellis with those averages - surely they should be nearer the 4.5-5 mark?

BV it is then as we already have Doyle on a high average (unless he gets re-assessed to a 7 like everyone else) so would be very top heavy

He would be a great number 1 for Coventry

This isn't a pop at Newman (who was excellent over the two legs) but how come he was a reserve for most of the year and then puts in a performance like that over the 2 legs of the playoffs. He did the same last year too. Maybe they should call him Playoff Newman because he certainly shone last night at Monmore.

Surely you are not suggesting that either of Newman and Ellis should be at reserve next year? Both are more than capable of holding their own in the 1-5 (as demonstrated last night) so I wouldn't expect either to be a reserve next year.

I prefer it that way - probably booking flights for him and SS

Wolves will need to build up a decent lead to take to BV and as we saw last night 12 wasn't enough for Poole. Wolves will win their home leg and BV will win theirs - it will be close on aggregate but I think BV will do it as their reserves are stronger.

I think he missed off the word "wit"

Well done Wolves - now on to the final and its BV for me

Whoever wins this - it has been a great speedway meeting. Poole a 3 man team though and could cost them in the last heat (as reserves have run out of heats).

Wow - advantage Wolves

Great ride from Masters pushing Holder out - still anyone's meeting!

Tactical tape touching by Tungate?

Didn't see that coming - well done Howarth. Anyone's now!

Advantage Poole now

Good heat for Poole - how has Newman been at reserve for most of the season?

Oops - someone's not happy! No need for that language though!
