And I’m also fairly confident in this instance I brought this up and it’s been Poole supporters including you who have replied. So not really a lot of discussion. Well of course a few Poole supporters would reply, its a Poole thread about a Poole rider! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was a thread about a meeting between Poole and Berwick. And my opinion on that topic was one team shouldn’t be allowed a guest in this and other meetings. Clearly I’ve misunderstood.

As a Berwick fan you ran Poole very close when Lawson was missing with illness (he also missed Ipswich and got a 7 day ban) and Berwick ran with a guest before knocking Poole out of the Cup.

Not everyone is out to get Poole. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW Cairns scored 10 in the same meeting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope he's banned for them meetings as well 😜 surly he is with holding his services in the UK by riding in Denmark, and the rules are a 7 day ban for this type of thing. But rules seem different for Poole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have said it is up to Berwick to raise objections to us being allowed a guest, maybe someone could ask Stewart Dickson his thoughts.

And all promoters know they will need to use all the "ahhh but what if?', regulations put together, up to, and including, "in the interests of Speedway" at some stage of the season... There will be over 200 guests used this season in tiers one and two, with a large percentage down to fixture clashes, and "illness", and not injuries... A truly incredible way to run what is supposed to be considered (by themselves at least), a professional team sport... Edit. As an ironic footnote to this, I have just read a Speedway Star from a few weeks ago and in the "10 years ago" section if quotes Matt Ford as saying.. "Its only a matter of time when" (a squad system should be introduced), to avoid meetings packed with guests.. "The one absolute certainty I can give you is that it is going to happen, its just when people finally don't feel frightened by it, for want of a better word, and understand how it would work".. "We are limiting and strangling ourselves by sticking to the old format of using the same seven men, it can't continue".. "At no point has it ever been as bad as it is now, and at no point have people being talking so negatively about the sport, the biggest reason for that is the lack of fixtures and continuity"... Remember this was TEN YEARS AGO!... It could have been written today... Edited July 29 by mikebv 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
