Cook 8.54 C. Rushen 5.01 W. Cairns 6.44 L. Harrison 5.70 R. Lawson 8.15 S. Lightcap 4.00 2 point rider 2.00 With Tom Brennan being just announced by Oxford, obviously the one over 8 has been scrapped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m shocked at some of the comments about Cairns surely he should be one of the first names on the team sheet! 6 and a half point average in his first year, comfortably outperforming Rushen, and you and others see his average as “poor value”? I don’t get it. He’s 17 years old! There’s another point on that 6 and a half this time next year. Poole fans don't really understand speedway. Thankfully they have a club owner and a manager who do. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought Poole might of moved up and challenged themselves, must boring to watch especially home meetings, I'd rather watch a team that lost now and again.

Why would they move and have the extra expense,the moved down for it was not making enough money.They are the best supported Club in the Championship.Most Clubs in UK are losing money over the season and just surviving. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems a strange one. But Poole have a history of getting these things right. Of the youngsters that don't get brought back they don't tend to progress as expected (Hagon, Foord, Perry). Makes me wonder if there is another reason for not bringing Cairns back, and 'average doesn't fit' is just an excuse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poole keith Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Cairns "high"average is partly a consequence of lawsons "lower" average,you couldn't have both on "good' averages,so lawson might be the better call for next yr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
