  1. You will never get 7 riders improving their average… you only need 3 or 4 to do that …. I maybe wrong I haven’t checked but Belle Vue won the league and I’m sure Bewley Lidsey and Blödorn didn’t add much to their averages if at all As mentioned people need to realise that King riding at 2 with Doyle means in those heats he is likely to only get third places and hopefully win heat 8 to get 6 a meeting ….sometimes he will get 8 when beating the opposing heat leader but sometimes only get 4 or 5 if an opposing second string like a Blödorn or Pickering beats him …. That’s where he is and that’s more than acceptable
  2. I think Danny’s average will fall for one reason … he is riding at number 2 As a number 3 you face opposition heat leaders in every race along with a weaker rider from each team … let’s say at number 3 you lose to the opposition heat leader but beat the two lesser riders … that’s 8 points from 4 rides If Danny rides at number 2 he will be with Doyle and an opposing heat leader so in those instances he will get three third places and hopefully a win in heat 8 thus making 6 points Some brain dead Ipswich fans will probably not understand this and expect that Danny’s average will rise
  3. Danny riding at 2 or 4 is a fantastic signing … not so much if he is at 3….. can easily see him scoring 6 or 7 at home every week and with a strong top 3 that’s all we need…. Though im sure first meeting of the season lets say home to Belle Vue and he is in heat 1 and gets third behind Doyle and Kurtz that some Ipswich fans will moan about it lol
  4. With Brennan at number 3 only leaves King Rew and Ellis to fill the 2 and 4 spots …. Preferably Rew and Ellis for me But for all the King haters I’m sure Danny riding at 2 or 4 would get 6 or 7 most home meetings and that’s more than enough People seem to forget Danny rode as a leader at 3 or 5 all season and was struggling with a bad injury yet averaged more than Ellis who rode at 2 or 4….. that’s nothing against Ellis by the way just speaking the facts
  5. Born in 1976 and my early days where at grass tracks (my uncle is Ray Andrews who was passenger for Dave ‘Ben’ Heath )….. first started speedway in 1982 at Rye house and memories of Garrad Naylor and Cox all in black and white check leathers and Andy Fines in red and white check and the histrionics of Mullarkey …. Always used to cheer for our reserves … Bryenton Chaplin and Ott and then the best of the lot came through Andrew Silver ….. then remembering Kerry Gray who came to my aunties on Christmas Day …. Good times
  6. Birmingham Oxford and Sheffield the weakest
  7. Fine line between reckless and dangerous I don’t believe he is dangerous or deliberately knocking riders off He is reckless riding above his capabilities at times Unfortunately you have the Poole blinkered mafia who won’t hear a word against him or see when he has done wrong Hopefully it’s because he is a trier and he tries too hard …. Because at some point things have to change for him he can’t keep riding how he is
  8. Tobias was the rider of the play offs??? Scores of 2 and 5 against Workington and then 4 away at Oxford in the final before 10 at home against a weak Oxford …. Might be entertaining and tries hard but to say he was Pooles top rider in the play offs is laughable
  9. Is it the strongest top 4….. Doyle Emil Brennan and Ellis similar Rew will do better than Rowe Dan T and Jenkins are better than Gilkes and Flint It’s an ok Sheffield side and will make the play offs but doesn’t look like a championship winning one ….. Then again anything can happen in speedway
  10. I would say Foord is totally reckless which in turn leads to him being dangerous Over riding the bike and little or no regard for his opponents He hasn’t got the skill set to ride as he is therefore yes he is dangerous
  11. So just for perspective King averaged more than Ellis King rode at 3 or 5 most of the season and Ellis rode at 2 or 4. Personally I don’t mind which of the two we keep as I believe they will do a similar job if they ride at number 2 Danny King is now not going to go out and get you 10 points every meeting like some deluded Ipswich fans expected at the end of the season he isn’t that level As back up to Jason Emil and Tom he would do a decent enough job riding at two I have zero preference over King or Ellis I’d welcome both back as a second string not a heat leader ….. I just feel Danny has become an easy target for some of our fans
  12. Yes have him back so he can maim the other riders so you win Awful attitude as well
  13. So it’s ok for Foord to celebrate when an ambulance was on for Killeen He is a loser and will go nowhere with his attitude …. Modern day Bridger
  14. If you support Poole and don’t agree with the following then you are not a speedway fan Foord should have been excluded … he is simply a danger on a bike and his and his family’s reactions were disgraceful…. If you condone that that’s shocking Boughen rightfully was excluded with Zach Cook …. Bet you Poole numpties agree there Nicholls made a good start Poole fans except the odd one or two are so pathetically blinkered it’s embarrassing Shovlar is a troll and like a child and nobody takes him seriously Then you get a few other morons trying to defend Foord lol Foreverblue I’m not including you
