Edit - forgot my reply to you lol. Wasn't it said this time last year he wasn't going to do Championship this year? Oh joy. So if points limit goes down potentially have to lose 10 points! So the one HL would be Lawson I'm assuming.

Team average will be 46!!!

Yes, good idea as Vinnie's average goes up to 4 from 7th August, so they won't be able to use him in a restaging. Think Glasgow should sign Max Perry as there is a potentially play off SF between Poole and Glasgow. Assuming Max is on a 2 still.

Yes, probably. Be tough if you have to choose 2 of the 3 HLs though. A lot of Poole fans want Tom to be first name on 2025 team sheet.

"I want to thank you guys tonight for such a good turnout and what you did there with your wonderful support was great!" " I don't think these lads know the rules anymore. I try and let them through but hey that's how it was." Richard Lawson last night. Maybe they don't want to increase their average too much either Richard lol.

But didn't he take 2 days to decide. But I think track time was the main reason.

That's what I was thinking, has been struggling since then.

1st bend looks interesting! Hopefully be better and dried out a bit by start time. That's all I am saying, I give up now lol.

It isn't still light at that time! Unless we have the quickest ref as sunset is before 9pm now.

Thunderstorm warning been removed from met office for today, just for Thursday now. Anything better than Sweet Caroline!

Yeah, kinda what I'm expecting. But haven't we done everything in the Championship now? I mean what else is there? Prem is harder to win imo. But then not my money.

The only way is up......

Bumps lol. And again proving my point, can't wait til you see it first can you? After they have seen a meeting there not 2 days before lol. Soon as we get away from this league the better imo. I thought KL fans were moaning Minnie's .... Time to move back up if Brum can't continue.

You know, most fans wait until they see the track before they moan and complain, only Glasgow fans do it days before, no one else! But then we have 30c heat for 3 days in a row to contend with, unlike Glasgow where prob have to take the zero off up there lol.

All the riders that have scored double figures at Poole, Glasgow could have got like Batch (13) and Kemp (12) and they get Barker (6) according to preview on Poole website. By Tobi's name it says stf whatever that means?! https://www.poole-speedway.com/news/view/20240729-preview-pirates-welcome-defending-champions-glasgow

It is weaker because of the points limit decreasing every year I would have thought. Attendances will always be high when team seems to be competitive every season! Would be interesting to know how many Poole fans go to Oxford to get a Prem fix.

I would be more tempted to use Batch who got 13 riding at 5 when Worky came down or Danny King? Although Drew has done well. And also r/r at home should be ok imo. Not really when most of us didn't get to see it lol.

Are you allowed to drop someone and just use guests? I thought you would have to sign a replacement. Or do you mean guests for Tate?

I don't think they will do it unless they allowed to do Weds or they think the crowd would be the same for a Thursday.

You're right I don't. Never made out I have that's why I asked the question and most of the post is about Poole. But at the end of the day what happened, Tom's version and Glasgow's version (from what their have said publicly) is different. Which is why we get the debate.

Is he not worth waiting for then? Poole obviously think he is worth it as they changed two riders to fit him in. Sounds happy at Poole too... https://x.com/TomBrennan27/status/1817285533820952578 Just for lbw who complains when I do links... 'Successful Northen Tour with @poolespeedway , coming away with two big wins. Working with a professional club with great supporters makes doing the job way easier, so thanks to everyone for that. Back at home on Wednesday to keep the momentum going'

Vissing in good company tbh as in last four meetings Vinnie has beaten the oppositions no2 home and away in H8! Bowtell and Lambert at Poole and Smith and Vissing away! Watch it back then and you'll see. It was prob the worst after first couple of heats until they got the water out. After that wasn't as bad but it is only because of racing in the afternoon. If it was evening wouldn't be a problem.

It was dusty! I've seen Poole and Plymouth dusty but that was on another level! Even though it is only because of afternoon racing and tbh they were trying to keep it under control with the water. Edit - like Jason Edwards said it would be even better there if they could get evening meetings.

Maybe, but prob in playoff time. Track seems to be better at beginning and end of season.

Oh yeah, course it is hard racing but it is borderline and I can understand when other riders take issue with it. Also Craig and Vissing would be the first to kick off if it was done to them. Also why did Vissing show Vinnie his back wheel after H8. Hadn't done anything wrong that I could see.
