Kyle was crap for most of 2013, even by his own admission. He only started to come on right at the end of last season which is exactly the reason why nobody saw fit to exclude him from the draft. His performances in Elite League up to that point had been not much better than Hopwood was this year. An opinion probably shared by most fans who saw Kyle ride often.

To be fair, up until the very end of last season Kyle was pretty rubbish in general. Nobody could of known how well he would go on to perform this season.

I for one would love to have Piotr back at Poole! His imagination.

You could do with going for a long walk down a short pier. Childhood crushes. Weren't they just the best?

Hahahahahaha! Man you suck so hard!

Never saw eye to eye with the bloke but a great shame he has passed. R.I.P brother.

I very much want to keep our team as it is, it's just a shame we have to keep carrying 1 useless reserve. Just wondering, if you have an 8pt rider and a 10pt rider that you want to swap, can you swap them for an 11pt rider and a 7pt rider? Or does it have to be like for like?

Thank you Reliant Robin.

Does anybody know how many matches their are (total), excluding play offs, in a season (assuming 9 teams)? Thank you

Well that whole post made you look very stupid... Record sells are entirely incomparable in their very nature to the performance and advancement of a sports person. Duh. And no, you clearly didn't read my post properly. I said stating an opinion without backing it up with any logic makes you come across an impulsive idiot, not your unfounded doubt in Craig Cook's ability to improve any further in his career. I didn't say Cook would improve either, but as usual Gavan always know's best.

Everybody is entitled to an opinion. An opinion is usually formed because certain things or patterns in behaviour have made you think that way. However when you voice an opinion that you cannot provide a reason for your opinons lose all credibility and you end up looking like an idiot to the logical masses So to answer your question, you don't need to have a reason for your opinion, but it does help give your thoughts and opinions some credibility and garner respect from the community. Personally, in my opinion, I don't believe that is any reason whatsoever to suggest he has reached his peak. Many riders have the odd season or two off, especially when they are relatively new (in terms of mastering a sport) to the scene. I believe Tai Woffiden was at one point near awful after showing a lot of promise early on and definitely took several steps backwards, but look where we are now? You cannot hone your skills without learning from failure.

Care to explain your opinion? I am sure you have plenty of well balanced and reasoned arguments as to why you firmly believe he has reached his level.

I think that's a pretty odd comment to make. A certain British rider comes to mind, some great rides but overall a bit crap when it came to the big boys. A lot of people didn't think he'd ever get any better and that a Premier League number 1 would be his highest achievement. I believe he is now world champion and currently defending his title rather well?

What on earth is wrong with Poole? Are they all drunk? How hard is it to stay on a bike?!

Top notch stuff from Kyle Newman

Mr incosistent Walasek? Were you even a Poole fan back then? Why on earth would we want to switch out Milik? Why on earth would Middlo be on the phone? You don't have a clue about speedway, you just like to think you do.

I'm afraid that's just not the case. The top names are top names for a reason, they bring the best entertainment in the sport.

200 tracks? I didn't even know there was 200 tracks in the whole world?

You're obsessed. I bet you have Matt Ford posters all over your house. Probably even got a little Matt Ford shrine with bits of his hair and other stuff you've pulled out of his bin while he's sleeping. Each to their own...

I would kind of like the big boys back... I say we copy the Polish model and crack on.

He apologised to the fans for going to Coventry with a team they were never going to win with only last week... He didn't call that match off did he? If we went around calling off every poor match this season then we might as well call the season off and announce the winners. I'm not even sure "elite" can legally be used anymore... sounds like false advertising if you ask me. Umm... I support Poole and I was actually sticking up for them. I'm not quite sure what your problem is?...

Maybe that's why he has reduced admission?

Is Shovlar still alive or have I just blocked him?... Haven't seen him in a little while?
