  1. Apparently the same part of the wrist that he broke previously!!
  2. Plenty of gaps in the fixture list to arrange holidays so no excuse to miss any meetings!! But hey if the season ticket doesn't work for you then so be it!!
  3. What 'known form' is that then with Klindt carrying a badly injured and heavily strapped knee as well as riding in the main body of the team for the first time this season??
  4. Belle Vue website has Klindt at 4!!? If thats true then it could prove decisive in heat 14 as his injured knee will have been through the mill by then - especially with the extra r/r ride as GZ is missing!? 42-48 win for Belle Vue I feel. Also local Echo says gates to open at 6pm - that's 30 minutes earlier than usual.
  5. Sounds as though you've found the ideal place to conceal any food or drink prior to being searched!!
  6. Outvoted year after year by those that just want to weaken the product!! Thanks for your rat's arse of a comment!!
  7. I assume you mean the 'in-form' Holder? Jack!!
  8. Such a surprise this morning to see so many posters from different clubs agreeing with Matt Ford's pleas to have a higher team building average!! :-)
  9. Where on earth do you get that figure from SCB? The 'old' main grandstand has a H&S limit of 1200 (it holds more '1400', but H&S rules!!). plus the standing room at the front which can be 4 or 5 deep for the whole length of the home straight stand. The 'newer' glass restaurant/bar stand with 3 levels can take approx 1000 (300 in the actual restaurant) and the 1st/2nd and 3rd/4th bends can all take 6-8 deep at least. The official declared attendance for the World Cup in 2004 was 7,131, of which 2,200 were in the temporary seating brought in especially.
  10. To be honest, when I first heard that Lions had signed Kyle Newman (5.26), I assumed it was to replace Garrity (6.00)?!
  11. The main reason Doyley has improved to the level he has is down to the successful surgery on his shoulder which he kept putting off whilst at Poole - plus he has a much more settled private life!! Poole never had the full benefit of him during his tenure due to the recurring injury. and some of his off-track antics (which are quite common amongst youngsters of his age)!! Doyley was upset at continually being 'overshadowed' by Ward and Holder, and ended up voicing his opinion somewhat too publicly, hence the swap with Janowski which at the time was seen as good business and suited both riders and clubs. Anyway not sure what any of that has to do with Poole 2017??!
  12. Havent seen anyone having to give up any food or drink at the main Grandstand entrance!! Some bottles have been opened and the contents 'sniffed' but then given back to the fan. Not sure if thats the same at the other entrance into the restaurant stand as I never go in that way?!
  13. Oh don't you start C4G!! As for Monday Nicolai is due to practice in Denmark today and is 'hopeful' (although very worried) about returning to race on Monday. Worst case scenario is that he starts but can't complete the meeting. Would prefer that he gives Monday a miss and we use r/r for his new average of 6.36. The track will be fine if its anything like Wednesday v Leicester - which considering the heatwave was unexpectedly (by me) a briliant race track. ps. the security searches are being carried out on the instruction of the County Police - so I assume its the same around the country. Its not just bags, jackets and pockets its also a full body scan with the electronic beeper scanners.
  14. 7 x 3-3; 3 x 4-2; 3 x 5-1; 1 x 1-5; 1 x 3-5; plenty of decent racing with particularly Riss and King finding the track eminently suitable in heat 15!!
  15. Klindt's 'real' average from his 3H/5A meetings as a reserve is 6.70. He's been given a new average of 6.36 which I can only presume takes account of his next anticipated home meeting score as a 2nd string whilst carrying an injury?!
  16. With the reduced admission prices including kids free, a big (ger) crowd is expected. All newcomers and many regulars should be prepared for the long queues while pockets and bags are emptied and searched!!
  17. Yawn. My week's holiday - chosen not enforced - was such a welcome break, but now back to reality!!!
  18. Zengi is/was on a minimum 28 day cover for KK. He's been given a 'new' average - effective 23/6/17 - of 7.79, which would see him drop to Poole's 3rd heat leader spot on Monday's TV meeting - whether that sees him score more readily we shall see?! KK was last night rumoured to be returning in July on his revised average of 9.23 which would see the team reshuffled again with KK replacing Brady at 1
  19. That's a fair point re Riss even though it was only r/r - still a facility!!
  20. Kyle Newman is the permanent replacement for Ayres for the Lions
  21. Nicolai has advised via social media that he hopes to be fit for Monday's TV meeting. If he isn't then it'll be r/r as he's now in the 2-5 with the new averages, with Paul Starke at reserve and Brady Kurtz at 1. ...and BV tracking new signing Rohan Tungate in place of the sacked Sedgeman (I bet theres been an absolute outcry amongst Aces fans - although maybe not!!)
  22. Also Starke was voted the meeting sponsors' Rider of the Night' tonight!! Ideal for his confidence before he slots in at reserve from Monday!!
  23. Well Starkey will be at reserve on Monday with Nic hoping to return on Monday in the 1-5. Going by the new averages on the BSPA site Brady will be Number 1 and probably Nic at 2; Zengi at 3; Jack at 4 and Hans staying at 5. Pure speculation on my part....!
