Poole Pirates Vs Redcar Bears 6th May Championship


Recommended Posts

Well a good job Mr klindt turned up for Redcar otherwise it would've been a cricket score, Poole reserves done what Redcar reserves did at worky last week, looks like Matt ford will be buying some more polish for the trophies unfortunately 😜.  How many did Mr Bowes score 🤔😃

On the face of it looks like Poole had prepped the track to be gate and go and it worked because apart from NK the Bears struggled to come out of turn 2 in front, it was all over after that. I know it has been discussed many times on here but Poole don't have to cover their paying customers in dust and prep a track that provides very little in the way of entertainment when they build such strong teams.

Well yes, Klint scoring half Redcars points tells you everything about how the rest of the Bears performed. 

Bowes should be given more credit, he is putting the effort in, but he's moves aren't coming off. I've seen him try a wide line around 1-2 a few times, but it ends up with the bike in knots. I think he needs help with the bike set up and or ridding style.

He did ok, a little improvement, riding at 2 suited him, still looks uneasy and lacking confidence on the bike but Redcar were so poor it maybe made him look better.

By the end of the season Bowes will be up to speed and barring injuries Poole will be there at the sharp end of the play offs … whatever shape they are I cannot  remember .

Yes I agree I think he will improve, he lacks confidence at the moment but I am sure he will get better.

Ok fair enough. It was very dry tonight, not sure why they couldn't have prepped it like last week.

With regards to Ipswich, didn't really mean about the track as last meeting i would have seen there was prob covered by sky sports! So have no idea how good/bad it is.

One thing that doesn't change though is Ace's attitude. I won't say too much because he is still a teenager. But feel like it is holding him back a bit. All this revenge talk because he doesn't like being passed is a bit ott. 

I don’t consider myself a full time supporter because I have family and work and live over an hour from Foxhall so I pick and choose my meetings …. We have rode at home 3 times … I went to the first meeting of the season simply because it’s the first meeting and we all miss our speedway …. The track was shocking .. we don’t have the best track but it’s been better last couple of seasons …. I gave the second match a miss as it was Northampton and the third match I didn’t go to as it was King’s Lynn again …. However the people I sit with moaned the track was awful both times…..I will go to Belle Vue at home next week to see Bewley and Kurtz 

Would just be nice if for once the usual Poole suspects actually spoke the truth

Bowes was so upset, in tears in the pits especially after being blocked against the pit fence by Pijper in his 2nd ride and then engine troubles in his last. Good to see him putting g some extra laps in after the meeting.

Incidentally Klindt clocked the fastest time of the season so far. All times were fast compared to previous weeks.

Also well worthy of a mention and Sponsors Rider of the Night, Will Cairns - 11 points as well as a heat 14 blown engine on his lap of honour .

Will Cairns was fantastic tonight, shame about the engine, I suppose that scuppered any chance he had of doing a fully deserved heat 15.

Bowes lifted slightly going into bend 1 before losing his line and drifting towards the fence on turn 2. In real time it looked like Pijper stuffed him in the fence but the replay shows that wasn't the case. Pijper took a wide line out of turn 2 but Bowes had already drifted wider of his own accord due to lifting.

Thanks for buying the stream. The view of those there in real time was that he went out wide for the extra grip and got blocked by Pijper. Nothing wrong with that tactic by the way but Bowes clearly had the speed and Pijper was 'extra determined' not to be overtaken after his heat 2 d/q.

Scoring half a team's points across 16 heats is impressive enough without it being a full maximum, which is an amazingly rare occurrence.
 

Klindt was incredible last night, not even Lawson could get anywhere near him and once in front he pulled clear.

it has been said numerous times yes but the fans bury there head in the sand as long as they are winning (which they always do)
