Well done to The Bandits , Enjoyable meeting in tough dusty conditions. Great team performance with everyone chipping in, I thought Poole as team were pretty disappointing I’d expected more from them, as a guest I’d have expected Lambert to pick up more points especially at reserve but sometimes that’s the way things go, Lawson is usually pretty decent but there wasn’t a lot of support for him and Kerr . The Rushen / Etheridge incident looked completely different from sitting in the stand to seeing the footage on tv later from sitting in my seat in the stands the Poole rider looked to be at fault seeing the clip I’m not sure , anyways it’s a final to look forward too and it’s been a while since we’ve been able to say that. 

Agree regarding Rushen incident ,while he did go out wide Jye wasnt along side him at the time decision could have went either way IMo.Certainly no intent.The 1st running was more Controversial IMO.

I can’t pretend to be impartial, bandits through and through. But other than being delighted with the result. Rushen is a serious talent, someone needs to help him cut the dirty riding out though. Clearly kicking other riders and in 15 he absolutely tried to bin PK mid bend. Someone with less experience may have been serious hurt. The kid has the talent to be the next British world champion but he needs to cut that crap out.

Racing for Leszno today may help....

Been twice to Poole whilst down there working. First time I saw Scott Nicholls (Leicester) fall and the Poole crowd cheered, second time I went Bomber (Rye House) fell and again the crowd cheered, a guy sat next to me and cheered and laughed so I asked him why they do that before they even know if the rider is injured, his answer was "it`s something we do and don`t care if the rider is injured", so I told him what I thought of him and he didn`t speak to me again 😂

Hey Siri, show me something that never happened.

I don't watch BSN so didn't see the original running, but that exclusion was a complete non-event. Rushen moves slightly wider to avoid his teammate, he doesn't even run Etheridge to the fence.

Can you imagine Etheridge in an Ekstraliga first turn? I know he wouldn't be within 50ft of any other rider, but if he thinks that's hard riding...!

I had a similar thought about the GPs, that wouldn't even be considered a tough move. Don't know why Etheridge was getting so upset?

Here’s the first running of heat ten last night. Cooper Rushen doesn’t kick Etheridge at all, just outgated him and Etheridge falls. All four back fair decision.

Think your a bit OTT regarding Rushen.

Sorry if I upset you by telling the truth, I was totally astonished that the seated stand did this, the first time this happened I just thought it was a one off, but when I went down a few weeks later and this happened again, that`s when I asked the man next to me who actually was encouraging his grandson to do the same.

I have been going to Poole since 1985. I have never heard anyone say what you have said you heard. In general Poole fans are plenty, knowledgeable and fair. 

For it to happen twice in your two visits is frankly ridiculous. You over egged your made up story.

Well we will have to disagree, I know what I heard and witnessed. I have been watching speedway since 1972 and I was very disappointed with the attitude shown on both occasions.
