  1. The rules of the draft will suit Poole as they have the last two seasons if that means Newman being in it then he will be .
  2. if he has a better average how can he be nowhere near his level ?
  3. ??? not sure why you keep going on about the promoters being unhappy ..they voted them in . just like they pl promoters voted them in even thou none of the play off matches were going to be shown on sky .
  4. I have answer your question with or without Sky plays offs would be in speedway and proved by the pl having them even thou sky don't show them . for 2002 season there was a vote on the plays offs and they were voted in .
  5. Who instigated in Poland and Sweden ? who instigated in Ice hockey ..as I said most sports have decided to use play offs tv or no tv sky or no sky . The fact remains if we only had play offs in uk speedway because of sky then Pl would not be having them .Back in 2001 just like any other rule I expected there would been a vote among the clubs and clearly they voted for them .
  6. I read the star ..it said he did know what had happened .
  7. Why ...what are going to do ? attack him with your speedway star .
  8. Ford has done really well and many can learn how he has ran his club ..it's a pity that he found the need to cheat so many times in the pursuit of glory and sadly in history outside of Poole fans will look at him as a cheat and nothing more .
  9. As has already pointed out your wrong as ls has pointed out ..and the fact is they are still here thou they are not shown by sky
  10. Sorry not sure what your point is ? Sweden ,Poland ,PL all have play offs all not shown by sky . so the bottom line is we don't just have play offs because of sky that is clear to see .
  11. As I pointed out tv or no tv play offs have found themselves in nearly every sport ...and that includes pl speedway, polish speedway and Swedish speedway ...as I said before do sky run other nations speedway ?
  12. Why would you forget about the Pl ...the point being answered is that the only reason there are play offs is that sky want them ...quite clearly that is not the case as the pl plays offs are not shown on sky ....sky don't sponsored ice hockey but that has play offs and I might be wrong but I sure they dont' control Speedway in Sweden and Poland who also have play offs . To answered your question yes ,,because as pointed out tv or no tv sky or no sky nearly every sport has play offs . also if tv walked away there not going to go back to a normal league system as most of benefits of the play offs are not tv related ..
  13. Yet again if the plays offs are because of sky why are the pl having them .seeing the finals are not shown on sky .the last time i looked i cant see when the ice hockeys play offs were on sky as well .
  14. Just asking a question .you said that the play offs were only because of sky .so useing that logic the pl play offs finals must be live on sky right .?
  15. I Thought is was a great final on two great tracks ...no doubt no praise for sky thou . What impress me most what the desired and Heart that was Showed by Belle Vue, they wanted it so badly unlike Swindon in Semi who looked like they never cared less . As someone said on facebook last night . how good could speedway be if the riders cared ..
  16. Another Fantastic night for the Play offs ...the best thing that has happen to Speedway ..great stuff .
  17. What time is the Ice hockey plays off finals on sky tv ?
  18. Of course the play offs is about money ..I thought everyone understood that no one has said otherwise also no one was talking about the fairness we were talking about crowd levels so no need for your normal rant . ..and it's for most clubs not just a couple ...As nearly every other sport use them including Speedway in Poland and Sweden they must be doing ok .
  19. As I keep saying ...why would the crowds be any bigger if we went back to the old rules ...why would all thou extra fans last start going to normal league matches when for most of them there teams season would be over by May ? It makes no sense .
  20. ?? Common sense tells you in any sport that a crowd for any final is likely to more than a normal league match ...what sort of logic are you using ...As I said before do you expect the people who went to the final last night to start turning up every week if we went back to the old rules ? in last nights final how many changes did Belle Vue and Poole have in there line compared to what they started with at the start of the season ?
  21. And what happens if you can't win the league by the end of April ? no matches are important . Belle Vue season would have been over a long time ago under the old rules ....You don't have to be a egghead to understand that fans in all sports will go to finals even if they have not been all year .
  22. Yes ..so why would they go in March under the old rules but not go in March under the new rules.
