Ahemm, ahem CHOKERS!!

Isn't there a maximum limit on the number of times the same EDR guest can race for the same team? 4 times isn't it?

How many meetings has Fricke missed either through injury or unavailability??

Ah bless!!!

Tough luck Robins - it just wasn't meant to happen. Its totally messed up my fantasy team now!!!

Jon Cook has stated that they are considering 2 current EL riders. KK and King would be the obvious options - with Bomber as an outside bet.

The biggest worries for Poole will be whether Newman recovers from his knee injury and whether Bjarne can maintain his recent form at Number 3?!

I'm sure you would recognise him L-C, he's quite distinctive you know!!

So Poole with Pedersen as a heat leader versus Wolves with the World Champ as a 2nd string!? A pretty even match-up I would say!!

So after all the pages and pages of generally anti-Poole ire, I wonder what the reaction is going to be if Poole now replace Kyle Newman (injured knee at Swindon last night!) with Paul Starke for the play-offs?? ps. Hans is hoping to be fit for the Blue Riband on October 14th!! pps. Chris Harris for Poole next season??!!

Congratulations to Neil Vatcher for his appointment effective 1st October 2016. With other news today, all round a pretty good day for Poole!! :-) :-)

The 'long term injury' replacement rule is a SCB/BSPA rule for the British Elite League play-offs. What happens abroad stays abroad!! :-)

He doesn't have to try very hard then does he?!

Just keep Kurtz and Newman free of any injuries.....purleeeese!

I see I'm a bit late for " Light the blue touch paper and stand well back"!! Amazing signing of Toninio who is looking forward to getting paid I would think. My only concern is that he hasn't ridden UK tracks for so long and we don't know what equipment he'll be using?! Should put more than a few on the play-off attendances so good for the sport clearly!

Wasn't Zmarzlik assessed at 6.50 when he came over - or is my memory fading?

KK? Poole can't use him. NB. If the Hammers get their 3 points and Robins fail to get an away point, then its a tie on match points BUT Lakeside will go through on the basis of more points scored!!

I doubt it - not unless the the official cut-off is changed (again!) plus I guess the start of the play-offs would have to be delayed unless either Lakeside or Swindon were fully compensated for having to race 2 days later?!

Doesn't Hemsley need more time to spend on his Cycle-speedway exploits?!

Its a bit of a weird one tonight. I hope Swindon get the point as they have generally been better performers over the season than the Hammers imo. Incidentally, when was the last time the Aussie Team manager had a team of 5 Brits, ! Slovenian and 1 Aussie versus the Team GB manager with a team of 5 Aussies and 2 Brits?? Knowing both Lemo and Rosco (sponsored both as riders) I hope its a good meeting for both of them. I have to go for Rosco though as he's closer!!!! ;-)

Give it a rest guys. BV won by a miserly 3 points and Pirates lost by 3. As much as Lemo and the official meeting report puts a super spin on what a great win it was - I'm certain I know which manager is secretly more pleased. More of that in the play-offs please.

No mate, We've already got the majority of trophies!

What has Zagar's form at Belle Vue or Kurtz's for that matter got to do with the Kings Lynn v Poole thread?!

.....as opposed to a blinkered non-fan!!

As i've said before, KK has a natural affinity with Poole with his UK Management being based down here and also part of the Poole 'backroom team'. His inclusion or otherwise in a Poole team will as always depend on a mixture of pay demands and availability!!
