  1. Do you mean Redcar rather than Oxford? They are the only ones holding things up that I can see.
  2. Me too. Got on once to see the score 23-19 and now I can't again lol.
  3. Not sure when Redcar are going to fit theirs in on as they have only one free Friday in September and that is because they are at home to Glasgow on a Sunday. So will they run a home meeting on 12th and 14th? Otherwise it's first week of October! 🙈🙈🙈 Unless they use another off night. British Speedway still horrendous at planning the end of season meetings.
  4. Don't think you really need the second leg in a semi final. You didn't mention it when we had first leg in BSN SF or KOC. Also why is it on a Tuesday? Bit random, but i don't care about international football unlike Steve lol. Edit - oh i bet Redcar are at Oxford in KOC on the Weds!
  5. Yeah, the stuff with Oxford last season was mainly to do with the Vinnie Foord/ Jody Scott incident. I'd be interested to know if they had a better experience this season or not. I did wonder if it was to do with the H14 exclusion or if it happened during the whole meeting?
  6. Latest... “Poole fans gave our riders, officials and mechanics so much verbal abuse last Wednesday. Now it’s our turn to make Ashfield a wall of noise. “Dayle Wood received a great deal of abuse for some reason and I had disgusting insults hurled at me about my wife. She was also subjected to dreadful abuse in our league fixture at Poole. “Other riders and mechanics were also sworn at in a dreadful manner. “This all happened next to the pits. The clerk of the course was aware of the abuse. We have also sent a letter of complaint to the Speedway Control Bureau. “Any Poole fan or official who dismisses this should be ashamed of themselves. This shouldn’t be happening in speedway. “Fans from other clubs, and even some Poole fans, have commented and got in touch saying they have suffered from the same vile abuse. It needs to be stamped out. “Poole have an outstanding record in the sport but this really tarnishes the reputation of a great club.” https://glasgowtigers.co.uk/brown-turn-up-the-noise/ Maybe the Poole management need to make a statement as everything from Glasgow atm, so would be good to hear from them about what they are planning to do.
  7. They also showed that report on BBC South Today on Friday I think it was.
  8. Not sure i agree with that. Get more regular fans if weekly home speedway meetings. I remember when Poole were in the Prem and they did one week at home and next week away. Didn't really work, people get out of the habit.
  9. People interested in all 3 leagues would look in all prem, champ and nl sections anyway?
  10. Yeah. I only know because they have mentioned it on talk speedway for the last 2 weeks about 20 times
  11. Might be worth putting Zach back at 5 for a week or so as be stronger in H13 then.
  12. Kids will always want to be at the stadium rather than watch it at home and most clubs have kids going in for free for at least the summer hols. If so many clubs still do a stream can't really affect attendances, or if it does the away/neutral fans watching it makes up for it.
  13. Also quite a few clubs don't own the stadium and in Poole’s situation, stadium use is short term future (last time i heard them asked about it in the press). I think Poole fans enjoyed H15. In fact quite a few were jumping up and down. So i think they were entertained enough. Also the track was way better than in previous weeks, so will take that.
  14. "We are surprised by the hostility shown towards our riders at the stadium. They received verbal abuse throughout the meeting by the fans near the pits. The atmosphere was extremely volatile. “We are also surprised by some of the tactics used with a win at all costs attitude. “For a club of Poole’s deemed stature, that’s very sad and we don’t believe that is acceptable or necessary." This from someone who has apparently sworn at fans in the past. Is he right or is it just sour grapes after leading halfway through the meeting?
  15. Score line a bit harsh on Glasgow really. But happily have a 14 point lead. Second leg looks feisty already! Poole vs Glasgow is like last years Poole vs Oxford.
  16. Can't believe Glasgow would pick a date he can't do! Are we missing anyone?
  17. Ok, view must not be that good! Worst place to have a crash for decisions. Difficult, looked they were level to me but wrong angle to judge. Leon left a big gap, prob why he got excluded. Not like Zach went for a gap that wasn't there.
