It makes good financial sense if it puts more on the attendances!!!

Very reliable as it happens!!!

The latest set of official averages have KK at 7.91. AJ is 8.45 (+5% 8.87 for a home guest). Of the bottom 4 teams only Doyle and NKI have higher averages than AJ.

Kyle declared fit for Wednesday!! :-)

Lets not forget that the riders in the SEC and Pairs have to be good enough in the eyes of the Polish promoters to be invited to take part!! With Woffy part of the Monster Pairs team this year, I'm sure I've read somewhere that BSPA dropped any objection to British 'Stars' taking part as long as the SEC/Pairs dates were announced early enough on the International calendar not to clash with any significant EL fixtures.

So hopefully won't need the fire extinguishers this year then!!?

Matt is Kelvin's mate - they are always saying on Sky clubs should aspire to the way Matt runs the Poole business. NB. As for the AGM, didn't the BSPA try to bring it forward to October so that clubs and riders knew the format before heading of to Oz or wherever - but then realised that their constitution didn't allow them to ratify any certain changes until November?! Not sure if they've amended their constitution now, but recent references in the Speedway Star still refer to the AGM being in November!! Having said that, the AGM should only be a 'rubber-stamping exercise' as the promoters always have a series of 'pre-AGM' gatherings to discuss all the likely major decisions!

I wasn't comparing him to Hans - no point cos Hans is injured. He may be 8th in the SGP currently but his last 2 GP scores are 6 and 4 points respectively, so hardly at the top of his form!!

Now that Lakeside have qualified I don't think Sky's commentary team is a level playing field either.

Apart from the re-assessment argument, I'm not sure what all the who ha is about Lindback? Its not as if he's even in decent form at the moment!!

Maybe its the new 'transparant', 'there are gonna be some big changes' BSPA Chairman that agreed the re-assessment!!??

Just a bit uncalled for!!!!

Isn't the Pairs all about Named Sponsors teams? Woffy was part of the Monster team earlier this year!!

He called a bellend a bellend on twitter apparantly!!!

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!! :-) :-)
