  1. So looking at the 'Finishing averages' thread it would seem Morris was 'legal' for both final legs anyway, with a lower average than Brady's!!
  2. Good to see that Morris was a 'legal' guest for Kurtz Home and Away after all then!!! Crikey, how many pages on the Stars ve Pirates thread would that have avoided??!!!
  3. Isn't that what most sport, including Speedway should be doing? Attracting big crowds who are often paying more than t he normal admission and making money for the clubs?! Thats exactly what the play-offs do and what all clubs sign up to at the start of each season. There has to be winners and losers - thats sport.
  4. In any sport its the team that wins at the end of the season - whether they have been good, bad or indifferent throughout the season is largely irrelevant. Take the KO Cup - Kings Lynn have scored more points than Somerset in the early rounds (194-191) but may lose out in the final?!
  5. Yes certain club sponsors structured their 'deal' so that maximum money only became available if the team won !!
  6. I would put money on there being a SGBP next year. Not sure there's a single SGBP club or BT who doesn't want it!!
  7. Absolutely true but what about all the rider assets that do ride regularly in UK? They all have a perceived value as does anything else purchased in the club's name. However the value is what somebody is prepared to pay rather than what Matt wants to sell for! Even a list of commercial partners (Sponsors/Advertisers) will have some value to a potential buyer - especially if they get something contractual about continuing financial support. I mean why is Lee Kilby doing all his fine commercial work for Swindon (and others) if the clubs aren't going to continue?
  8. Holder's house being up for sale could well be to do with a legal settlement with his former partner, now that he has gained access to his son again. On the other hand he could be moving to his base in Poland?!
  9. Can't see Ellis guesting next Wednesday due to the 8-day rule!! I'd have thought Bomber for Holder is a good shout!!
  10. I'm fairly sure that in the last accounts filed for 2017 Poole's assets were valued at around #130k
  11. I'm following the forum rule to reply to the post not the poster. What a d***head post!!!
  12. Agree with most of that Steve but it was Klindt off 15 metres not Morris and although I wasn't there I'm not sure how Middlo motivates his tea??! Well done to all the team. Commiserations to kings Lynn and well done to Dale Allitt for his magnanimous comments at the end. Also despite Matt Ford's announcement its also good news that he won't leave the club or the fans in the lurch and may even stay another year (but that may depend as much on AGM decisions as it will on what buyers show interest).
  13. No problem - hopefully the Stars riders will find them all in their pre-meeting practice!!
  14. I guess he was laughing so much he put his hand straight into his bank account to give Horton some financial help by purchasing Woryna!!
  15. Hope the lorry isn't carrying any more house bricks for burying amongst the shale!!!
  16. Not illegal if the BSPA MC and the SCB have approved it at Kings Lynn's suggestion. Poole were quite happy to use Adam Ellis who they had originally booked. All would have been well if KL hadn't booked Ellis to guest at Poole!!! I know you have a dislike (I won't call it hatred) of all things Poole, but get your facts right on this one. You've only got to read what Dale Allitt explained!!
  17. Just to be clear Poole had already booked Ellis to ride for them at KL. It was only Allitt's suggestion that KL use Adam and Poole use Morris which Poole agreed to. It was proposed to BSPA/SCB and it seemed a sensible option so special dispensation was granted. Poole have done nothing wrong. They merely agreed to another club's proposal to avoid the sport looking more stupid than it already was.
  18. Its just as likely that KL will come out and win the first 4 heats 5-1 like Poole did yesterday, then its game on!!
