SteveLyric2

Matt Ford has no more got an endless pot of gold than he has an endless pot of oil!

Hijacking treads? Is there tyre tampering going on too?!

Don't worry Steve0, Poole are taking pity on the current Swindon malaise and will be missing 2 of their 1-7 on 22nd August in order to give you a better chance of getting your season back on track.

So the usual several pages of bs following a Poole trouncing of the opposition. I really can't understand the issue about 'oilgate'. I would go as far as to say that every speedway track in the country has used oil to help bind 'iffy' shale. Even the renouned trackman Buster suggested using it during the infamous 'first bend hole' incident a few seasons ago which caused the KL call off!! With the oil being put on the track after the meeting I guess we'll have to wait to see if Leicester 'ride under protest' at next week's Wimborne Road home meeting?! I can't add anything else about the meeting other than to say that 3 Poole riders set their fastest race times of the season so far. (NB. For those arguing the environmental/H&S issues, last night's meeting was actually sponsored by a Health and Safety Compliance Specialist!!)

What on earth are you going on about?

Have I missed something? Whats this 46.5 reference about?

What was wrong about my post? Lambert has asked to be excused from the test match because he needs a break (he's fatigued!!) - his words not mine! The fact that he'd booked a short break is largely irrelevant which is why i didn't mention it. I don't blame him for wanting to take a break. The point of my post on this particular meeting thread was whether his fatigue plus his Swedish commitment this evening plusgoing to number 1 would have any effect on his performance?! We shall soon see tomorrow.

Robert Lambert has asked to be stood down from Team GB on Saturday due to suffering fatigue! After back and forth to Sweden today/tomorrow plus the added pressure of being the new Number 1 for August, it'll be interesting how he does at Wimborne Road on Wednesday. Poole won 58-32 back in June when they hadn't started reaching any form at that point.

Klindt replaces Woryna in the 1-5 for August.

Don't they have play-offs in the Championship then? Riders are usually contracted to end October!!

Just appeared on the Poole website and Facebook - the rearranged Poole v Leicester meeting (from 30th May) will be on Thursday 9th August!!

So changes in riding order for both teams with the new August averages coming into effect, will be interesting to see how Robert Lambert 'copes' with the Number 1 race jacket. Similarly how will Nicolai cope with being back in the 1-5?! ...and will Josh G be riding or will he be banned depending what 'rules' are followed tonight at leicester?!

Just as a matter of interest, the current rules (18.8 Facilities) state that if 'no facility' then a SGBC rider with an MA of 4 points or less can take the place.

There is absolutely no way that 'most teams will finish by end August' - this year or next!!

A confidante of the Team Manager/Co-Promoter!!

I'm told at the moment the Pairs will take place on Friday 20th September 2019 at Somerset

The promoters (BSPA) meet every month or so believe it or not so they already have a fair idea of the AGM proposals etc. Its probably why the likes of Matt Ford are tempted to get out of the sport?!

His wife, family and some sponsors got him the kevlars!!

With Batch at 1.

That also assumes the 'one league' option will have 7-rider teams?!

Danish Federation have approved Hans to be at Leicester so if he isn't then a potential ban could be on the cards.

Although your announcement was heard clearly in the section where I sit, it would seem that not everyone heard it. It would be useful if the possibility was also put on the club website/facebook and twitter pages, just to keep fans aware of the option

Matt was still awaiting clarification from PZM re Josh (Josh also said the same when asked in the pits). As far as MF is aware Hans is in the Leicester 1-7 for Monday, much to Lodz' disappointment,

Did you see my updated reply on the earlier post R&R? Straight from Matt F himself.

Maybe, but Josh is not in the top 3!!!
