BBC lol. They always say it's raining. Lost count of times they say thunderstorm and nothing happens. https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/forecast/gcn8db1mu#?date=2024-10-09

Or the behind the scenes stuff that has been happening in the pits if you believe what you read.

Or even swim it with the thunderstorms around later!

That's a different context though. When anyone says 'he took him out' in relation to speedway they don't mean that, as well you know. More like they mean they rode into the side of someone or squeezed them against the fence, took their line etc. There you go a sport definition rather than you twisting words to mean something else. take someone out 1. tv. to block someone, as in a football game. www.thefreedictionary.com

Are you talking about the official Oxford one or the really crazy fan one?

Depends who is saying it really.

Is that the official line? As someone posted on SM that he just didn't turn up.

Heavy showers all day Tues ( like last week) so won't be surprised to see it pushed back to Friday as track will be wet and we don't do so well then.

Which is why they started on him in the first place, wasn't he on a 5-1 in H12?

True but the fans will know that is going to happen though that is why they do it. Or I suppose you could be like Ben Barker and do a sneaky middle finger under his other arm.

Then maybe Oxford fans should have thought better before winding riders up as they will always give a hand gesture.

The curse of winning. You get too used to it. So every time we are in a final, if we don't win each leg then 'we are rubbish.' According to some. Although looking at HL scores of 7, 7 and 4, done well to only be 12 down. Will be difficult and kinda need 3 Oxford riders to struggle but could be last heat decider or Super Heat yet!!

First of all I wouldn’t have Gilkes at Poole, normally struggles. Got 2 for Redcar I believe.

Yeah they do. Already happening on twitter.

Lol, cos we finished top and chose it! Only changed because of the weather and since both got rained off back to how it was.

The only problem is if Bournemouth are winning comfortably then the Leicester fans will leave early as well!

We know. We had Kyle in the Poole team in his 'early days' !

They mean Gilkes.

Why not! I was thinking he could fit in the team the other day and lives near Swindon? So not that far for him.

Plus also the money saved from riding in the Championship rather than the Prem.

Could be more of a possibility if Prem moves from Mon/Thurs to Mon/Weds because of Ben Cook, Pickering etc doing Poland on Thurs.

Plus if you could put anyone at reserve, may as well just put Lawson down there Reserves have to be two lowest averages, no1 has to be highest average but the others are up to the TM what number they ride at.

You can't swap them! It is based on averages. If Sam's is higher than Tobi's then he stays in top 5.
