Wonder if the crash being at BV is weighing on his mind. Understandable if so. Nothing to do with the crash. If the crash was affecting him he would back out of close contact and throttle off. He’s not done any of that. Just lacked track craft and slow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTD26 Posted July 12 Report Share Posted July 12 Well, I’ll eat my words. What a performance from the comets today, out of this world. Good to see Tate has got his mojo back heat 5 was superb. Antti flying again but no complaints about any of the 1-7. Bowes is getting there and riding at 2 will help him. Its good to have Saturday night speedway back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely wrong setups and outgated in two heats with Vinnie finding it easy to pass our reserves. Mountain to climb. So much for the Poole fans, especially one, saying all season that Cairns won't be under any pressure 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topaz325 Posted July 12 Report Share Posted July 12 Glad to be proved wrong...a great team performance by the Comets team who all looked up for it from the start and all worked hard for every point. A good boost for the Workington management , staff and fans after recent weeks. Well done Worky. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bad day at the office for the Pirates but that's speedway. Expect a backlash when the Comets arrive at Wimborne Road in two weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteelShoe Posted July 12 Report Share Posted July 12 1 hour ago, Bald Bloke said: To be fair to Ford, most teams would settle for 5 out of their top 6 upping their starting average. I can understand some fans being frustrated, but it seems like Starke is doing his job, looking at his average. But i don't watch Poole meetings, so can only go by averages, and not the eye test. Start.. Lawson 9.17. So far... 9.86 Cook 6.23 7.38 Kerr 7.76 7.39 Rowe 6.11 8.43 Thomsen 4.41 5.45 Starke 3.36 4.07 Kerr is the only one, but is only 0.37 under his starting average. as a team they are doing just fine looking at those averages. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scaramanga Posted July 12 Report Share Posted July 12 (edited) im sure 99.9 % of people expected a poole dominant win but it wasnt ive always a lot of respect for poole in some ways always build a good team however some poole fans really let there team down very poor in defeat away defeat by a home side that had a lot to ride for and there wanting riders sacked even poole cant win them all Edited July 12 by scaramanga 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looked like the 2024 Tate today, really great to see him racing so well again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
