Having looked at the riders in the first two rounds, Jack Holders main issue is being slow out of the gate. Will need to work on his starts for the elite league. Brady struggled with set ups in the first round but was better last time. He can certainly get out of the gate well. Davey Watt has always been hit and miss out of the gate but has looked focused and much more consistent. Think Masters in round 2 has been the most impressive so far although sedgy has looked much better than I saw him ride when I visited the UK. In terms of Gavan, it was fair to raise the question on the Poole 2 and would worry more on Jack settling than Brady. Am at Kurri Kurri so will be interested to see progress. Also being fair to Gavan a few years ago he questioned the ability on Magic to step up but then acknowledged he was wrong and how impressive he had been.

I guess Wolves had to emerge from the bottom of the league at some point. How about having no points limit next season and you can have any seven riders you like.....oh no couldn't do that as most promotions make losses and want to water the league down unlike the forever hammered Matt Ford. Hopefully people aren't blind to the fact that the low points limit and quality of rider is due to the clubs struggling to run in the EL. Will be interesting to see what the EL looks like next year, if there is one as have heard bees won't run in EL and Aces/Leicester have made big losses!

You give them credit Crazy Robin as they are out. I think half the people on here never go to speedway as you only need to look at the teams to realise it was a mismatch. A GP rider is swapped for reserves and people said Poole were stronger, he is one of the top 8 riders in the world and am sure he could adjust to a technical track. Tungate for peddlo was much of a muchness both PL heat leaders. I guess your title says it all though CRAZY robin!!!

am waiting for the moaning as bees fans love that!! Suggest if you want entertainment go to see the brummies rather than the bees

It's funny any other team and riders are in hospital and concern is raised for the rider for Poole it's a plan!!! At least it will go silent on here as Poole are out and you lot have nothing to moan about. Get ready for all the fake praise of Poole which has already started with Crazy Robin!! At least stick to your approach the rest of the year where you hate Poole everything about them is wrong, they cheat, they own the rule makers at BSPA etc. I can see why Poole fans get so defensive as its non-stop abuse of the team they love. Just wish the brummies could have stayed at EL as I could start posts on all the things overlooked that are done by other clubs!!!

Wow I realised Poole were unpopular but some of the rubbish written here is priceless. A Poole rider wins a race and it's unfair or cheating. It's Holder and 2 reserves against a strong wolves team only one outcome. I haven't seen one reference that wolves replaced a missing rider with a GP rider in Harris whilst Poole lose their second heat leader who is a GP rider then replace him with RR so mainly two reserves but are somehow much better off. Any how it's a Wolves v Belle Vue final. Thanks to those pirates tonight who made Wolves fight for it and unlike all the haters on here I wish the Poole fans a good close season and I will see some of you next season. I follow the brummies but like to watch the occasional elite league match so travel to Dorset rather than head to the local midlands teams

It's not ratified yet, a lot of talk that with 2 years out his average should be re-assessed. They haven't broken any rules but I wonder if a change mid season much like the season when the number of play-off teams got reduced will occur. Personally it will be good to see Tai racing although I wish they had introduced a squad system years ago. I would also have a draft system for the top 10 or so riders so every team gets a real number 1. I still think the Aces will win the league with Wolves as the other finalists. Think Poole and Swindon will make the play offs.

Could Woffy Be Making An El Return?
Gloves replied to Daniel Smith's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Speedibee when Tai's character is hammered on here all things should be considered. Doing work for and raising money for charity should always be commended in my view. If you think differently good luck to you but these charities help many people often relying on donations and well known people publicising their cause. Before you respond with another post about what I can and can't post, don't worry I won't post again or stay on this forum. As it'll it's full of nonsense like I have been reading life is too short. What's wrong with British speedway... It's the supporters who are just so negative all the time. Good luck all and goodbye -
Could Woffy Be Making An El Return?
Gloves replied to Daniel Smith's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
My issue with Tai is that for a long time he actively promoted how much he did for British speedway and a number of his actions such as not riding in the uk, missing the British final seem to suggest the opposite. Whilst I am not someone who will cheer for him as its my choice paying my entry fee, I certainly would not boo him as every rider deserves respect as they put their life and well being on the line every time they race. Where I am impressed with Tai is the work he has done to raise money for charity and like all speedway riders backs and supports riders who have had life changing accidents e.g. Darcy Ward. -

Swindon 2016 - A New Era Starts...we Thought..
Gloves replied to dump that clutch's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Crazy Robin - if you go on the Speedway GP website it looks like Buszcowski is not on the heat leader list, so is classed a second string which I admit is different to the bournemouth echo article but it does make you think abit. Buscowki's average is below 6.5 which was listed as minimum for heat leaders unless they were new riders or on the hidden original heat leader list. Hans is most likely on the heat leader list but could potentially start at 2 or 4 in the order. Also before I get hammered by posters, am not a Pirates supporter, long time brummies fan but I do read all the articles on speedway gp. To be clear the one saying Buzz is a second string can be read on the following link: http://speedwaygp.com/news/article/4582/poole-confirm-magic-exit -
Davey Watt is a good committed rider who is loyal to the EL, think he would make a great third heat leader in any team.

Surely Iversen will ride for Lynn next season or if as stated the Peterborough assets are with Matt Ford will Poole look to use him if Holder doesn't ride?

Poole looking at Kildermand to step in for Janowski if he decides not to ride for Poole next season.
