He is the signing that makes the difference between Poole and everyone else.

Poole will lose a few away no doubt, its silly to suggest otherwise. Teams like Coventry, Swindon and Kings Lynn will probably strengthen come May 1st and look a much better prospect than they do at the minute.

Exactly this. Coventry will almost certainly be able to bring in someone like Larsen after May 1st

If we get anything over 32 points I'd call it a morale victory without a number 1 .

Nothing to say he cant, an EDR must ride at number 7 which he is.

Because its not the goal for the season. We already had injury scares this season plus Bomber blowing an engine, id much prefer the team to get as much testing as possible to be ready for the League season. If we win it great but I wouldn't be throwing a party afterwards.

Really couldn't care about the Elite Shield. There is only one trophy we all want to win.

Yes ive read them now. It was certainly the original plan to keep the tier 2 rider at reserve but they must have had a change of plan to an EDR must ride at 7. Think we will see a lot of edr alternate roles throughout the season.

It is, Coventry have had the benefit of doing similar a few years back. Always surprised me more clubs don't do the same.

Lakeside announce Zach Wajtknecht as an asset.

86 from Cov city centre Hales st stand DD leaves at 13.03 and should get you to Brandon around 13.30. Last bus back to Cov is at 16.45 but if possible to make your journey back from Rugby you can get the 86 to Rugby from Brandon at around 17.15

Probably engaged his brain before talking for a change. He would've looked extremely silly spouting off about Brandon then moaning about the Poole track also.

The tier 2 rider stays at reserve while the tier 1 rider can move up. If a club has two tier 2 riders then the one with the highest starting average assumes the tier 1 role.

He will start well as he will start as a 2nd string, id have still signed him for this season if it was just about averages but it isnt. His attitude was awful and the issue about not team riding with Sarj meant he was never going to come back. If he does similar riding at Poole their fans won't be too impressed either, Poole are successful as they ride as a team all pulling in the same direction.

I wonder why Hans was riding as a 2nd string in the playoffs? Just maybe because he had a poor season? SCB is spot on, a few decent performances from Hans and we would've been top.

Going by the numbers they were wearing at P&P the Bees riding order will be, 1,Kasprzak 2,Garrity 3,King 4,Woryna 5,Harris 6,Bates 7,Sarjeant

Agree with that. If we had 5 points available then its fair enough signing.

Perhaps(?) luckily a new stadium isnt in the hands of our current promotion A new stadium (if it ever happens) will not just be for speedway. Dont think any new stadium in any sport can just be for just that sport. Really needs to have multi use like Belle Vue.

Wouldn't take too much from results yet but always encouraging when riders show decent form early on.

Yeah I can see the benefit to be fair, it is a glorified challenge after all. Are we allowed R/R for number ones this year though?

If/when Coventry get a new stadium id be more than happy if its half a good as what Belle Vue looks like. Credit goes to everyone involved and im looking forward to the World Cup already.

Would've been an awful start to the season. Id ask Craig Cook if available after his play-off performance at Poole.

I didn't go but a mate says Woryna looked better after each heat he raced. I wouldn't write him off just yet but its easy to make him a scapegoat considering we had plenty of points available. Already showed much more than Jamrog, it's not fair to base an opinion on Woryna using another riders form from a year ago. On a plus side it seems Josh Bates had a great last two rides in the Ben Fund, I can see him and Sarj making another improvement this season.

Chris Harris finances were said to be very healthy a few years back, not millionaire standards but very nice indeed. His familys house in Binley Woods would be worth a few bob alone!

She has said herself she will be doing some speedway events.
