Racin Jason 72 Posted July 12, 2025 Report Share Posted July 12, 2025 I purchased the stream doing my bit to support the comets from sunny Suffolk. Fully expecting a comfortable Poole win but I’m so pleased to see a decent crowd and a good home win with all the comets contributing.  3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wondering if the long haul up in the heat has had an effect but shouldn’t be an excuse. Workington on another level so far. Oh dear!!!  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Shovlar Posted July 12, 2025 Report Share Posted July 12, 2025 Well it’s clear to see where the issues lie. After heat 3 we held our own but you can’t start give the home side three 5-1’s on the trot. The whole meeting is over before the first track grade. Vinnie Foord showing every reason why he should have been chosen over Starke this season. A fans favourite and a battler. Instead we have ended up with mobile chicane Stark who makes no effort to defend his track position. Kerr, well he was appalling earlier this season, had some improvement before being utter tripe today. Easily our worst performance of the season. I don’t like losing but if we do, at least put up a proper fight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bellers101 Posted July 12, 2025 Report Share Posted July 12, 2025 Great win for Workington. In hindsight maybe Poole should have kept Richings as one of their reserves. 😂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No blame for young Cairns but as you say we can see where the issues are. Kerr showed improvement recently but went backwards tonight. Foord should never have been dropped for Starke, crazy decision. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocketrod Posted July 12, 2025 Report Share Posted July 12, 2025 Complete neutral bought the stream. Enjoyed the meeting. Hopefully  the comets problems are behind them and they can move on. Be a great track for a British Final.  Poole just never got going but sometimes it’s just not your day 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much better track, than Wimborne Road. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bald Bloke Posted July 12, 2025 Report Share Posted July 12, 2025 After a terrible start, the Pirates won heats 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, 14, and 15. But only recorded 3 heat advantages, all 2-4's . When you won Ht's 9, 10, 13, 14, and 15, you also run a last. Even after that bad start, it could of be very close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But now not many. Also I believe Poole upset Edinburgh fans by moving their fixture, then you wonder why speedway is dying Edinburgh wanted it moved cos they would have been missing 2/3 riders. So down to their promotion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt rarely makes mistakes with team building but what would you rather have? A rider who is up for it every ride, determined to improve, or a rider who with due respect, his better days are long behind him and he just can’t do it anymore. No blame for Cairns. Just turned 16, tough reserves and on their home track. Did well to beat Foord for his point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
