Bore off all you do on this forum is go on all the threads nit picking and offering up your opinions on anything and everything which is usually wrong and just getting on everyone's **,I think i can safely say I'm not the only one who thinks this.

Firstly, put him/her on "ignore" then, plus you don't have to reply to anything he/she might say.

Secondly (where you say) "offering up your opinions on anything and everything", that is what the Forum should be about, not the endless bickering and name calling which it now, nearly always, descends into.

Well I bought the stream which I must was excellent no issues at all, very good production and unbiased commentary although got a bit understandably excited towards the end.  They even said Kerr was not at fault in their eyes in heat 3 or heat 12 from their angle but obviously the ref had a different view. 

Glad you enjoyed the coverage foreverblue, I'm not going to apologise for being excited at the end though 😅 Weirdly, I've only been available for three fixtures on Gladiators TV this season, all three against Poole. It's nothing personal I promise!

I stand by my comments regarding Kerr. I was a little surprised, I can see the arguments both ways on the separate incidents. I always try and keep my views unbiased despite wanting Plymouth to win every heat. I'm a sports fan and want to see the right outcome for every event so I will say it how I see it, regardless of my allegiance. On this occasion, the referee saw it differently. I'm sure in a fortnight's time when I do the Berwick fixture I'll see things differently again to certain incidents.

Not if he used the stream to make a decision

Massive credit to Ben Barker

That performance with the injuries he had would be up there with some of the old Peter Collins and Kenny Carter feats of the past.

 

 

 

 

 

Take note Ben Cook!!

Well done to Plymouth last night and especially Ben Barker, fantastic meeting. The inconsistency continues for Poole time and time again and that will be our downfall. Building next years team based on last nights performance we really need to have a clear out, some riders have got stale and need to move on.

Completely agree. Richard Lawson, Will Cairns, perhaps Anders Rowe. That’s it. Tobias Thomsen tries his heart out, no doubt about it, but he is at his level of ability and doubt will progress further. Starke, thank you and goodbye, Kerr ditto. 

As for Captain Cook, he clearly is saving himself for the PL and is going through the motions. Not good enough attitude, sorry to say and is not performing to the required standard. Time for him to move on elsewhere. 

The team is lacking the expected Poole passion. Where was the grit showed by Barker last night? Completely absent. It must have been a highly frustrating meeting for Middlo last night. Having to use Tobias in heat 15 showed it was game over. Not Captain Cook, not Kerr, our other heat leaders, and the bottle or wherewithal to put their hands up and say they would take the ride.

Who would you bring in SS to replace the riders you want gone?

Could you discuss this on the Poole thread, this is the thread to discuss another epic night of speedway in Plymouth, thank you

As a matter of interest and from your track experience what is your estimate of the attendance numbers last night?
