Ludicrous situation. I don't remember him getting a 7 day ban for missing an Ipswich match, unless my memory is failing me? He was en route to Ippo (I think it was the day after he missed the Denmark meeting) but the gastroenteritis kicked in again and he was told to go home. He got a 7 day ban for a non-speedway injury.

TheWellBehavedWorrall Posted July 30 Report Share Posted July 30 1 hour ago, Odds On said: Interesting reading the comments regarding the Poole track, they seem very unfounded and unwarranted...The Poole track has always been consistent, nothing has changed since the days of Schofield, Crump, Rossiter etc the only thing that has changed is that nowadays it is the likes of Lawson and Cook. Wimborne Road used to be one of the best tracks in the country, if not the best. The 2004 World Cup - hosted by Poole - produced some of the best speedway I can recall. Domestic meetings were pure entertainment too. I’m not sure what’s happened, but I didn’t even tune in last night, despite paying for a BSN season pass. Wimborne Road has somehow become the speedway equivalent to a sleeping tablet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will certainly miss the second date for the return to Berwick. On the subject of missing riders, will Lawson be absent for any more as Poole and Brovst are both in action for all remaining Wednesdays in August?

Edit - checked on updates was sick on 6th July and on the thursday that week they had r/r for him. 1 hour ago, SteveLyric2 said: He was en route to Ippo (I think it was the day after he missed the Denmark meeting) but the gastroenteritis kicked in again and he was told to go home.

I still find it ridiculous that kf he didn't have a Danish club he would've got a ban for missing Poole's match due to illness, but because he had a Danish fixture, he doesn’t have to ride due to illness & escaped a ban (till the next day).

I don't think Poole was regarded as the best track back then, there were other great tracks like Kings Lynn, Peterborough, Swindon, Coventry etc that produced great racing. You can't compare with todays tracks. Kings Lynn for example does not produce the same excitement or amount of passing it used to. The meeting you continually refer to was fantastic largely because of the riders involved and to see riders like Havvy in the twilight of his career on the ragged edge was amazing. Unfortunately those days are gone, the track certainly deteriorated to the point where the gp challenge in 2013 when the track was very bumpy and dangerous. The track is safer and much better now, I understand you find it boring because your own track produces such great racing but last night produced passing and close racing which was entertaining in my view. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The meeting he missed for Ipswich wasn't until 6th July when he became unwell on his way to Leicester. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marko Posted July 30 Report Share Posted July 30 Even watching on catch up I was close to giving up after the first lot of races, but I forwarded a few heats and the racing got better at times, but like most tracks, dry and dusty, very little extra grip if you went out to the fence. Not expecting any different from tonight's BSN offering at Leicester, its all too predictable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes racing improved later on with Cook going wide to get past Jenkins and some good battles, Masters was a decent guest which helped and Kennett was also a good guest. Shame we didn't get Kennett to replace Bowes before Oxford got him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was hard to judge how Kennett would do, not raced "professionally" since he got injured at Plymouth & starting mid-season. His current form could be useful to Oxford trying to avoid the wooden spoon & make him a sought after rider next year though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was replying to SteveLyric who thought it was the next day, but now you're reminding me of what happened, did he not complete a Prem match, apparently picking up an injury in the process, missed Poole due to not riding in Denmark (because he was injured), then returned to Ipswich the next night? Was the Ipswich meeting he missed not a day after riding in Denmark? I think whenever a rider misses a meeting one day, but rides the next people get suspicious.

Shame we didn't get Kennett to replace Bowes before Oxford got him. I think Jenkins was a possibility at one stage when he finished covering for Battye until Berwick decided to keep him and drop Fredericksen!! Looking at our August fixtures I reckon Jenkins might be a good choice of guest on 12th v Scunny. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
