  1. The first bold bit is probably true. The 2nd is classic Shovvy. I'd say it's 70-30% in Poole's favour now. I expect a narrow Poole win in the return leg tomorrow. I think the bookies will show i'm not to far out. Great comeback yesterday though. Can't knock that at all.
  2. I don't know who does your track. But after last night I would of got Buster in this morning if he would. With rider practice around mid day tomorrow.
  3. I'm watching on an ipad through a BT Sport app. Don't know if that helps.
  4. Crowd has surprised me, seeing what's at stake. Hope the weather holds out.
  5. Not my job, but Lynn have to many riders that ride the AFA well, but are poor away. Not picking on one rider, there are several like it. Heres an example.... TJ has a GSA of 6.41... His home average for 2019 is 7.71 …. his away average is 3.78 Charles Wright has a GSA of 6.58 …. Home average is for 2019 is 7.13 …. His away average 6.38. He goes ok at Lynn. I'm pretty sure Charles woud average 6+ home and away for the Stars. We need a few riders like that imho. The Stars need riders like that if they are serious about trying to win something. You have to grab points on the road.
  6. He has lost money at Peterborough, he has said so himself. Judging by the crowds at Lynn, I think he has lost there as well. Speedway is not a money making machine, it's a money pit. So it's cost him £1000's. He spent 6 figures at Peterborough, before a wheel was turned. He didn't do it to make money, that's for sure!! If Buster did underwrite the Ippo promotion, he was the only one to put his money where his mouth is. He has his haters, and your one of them.But if he walked away from the 3 clubs today, where would speedway be?
  7. I hope that's still the forecast ?. Looking forward to watching this. Hopefully a good crowd for the cameras too.
  8. As I see it the reason is simple, our riders haven't been good enough away from the AFA. While it's great to have "Application, attitude and passion", does it have "far greater importance to the value of a riders impact for the team"? It will only get you so far imho. You could put a Championship side into the Prem, and they won't win anything with all the application, attitude and passion in the world..
  9. It might be me, but how many guests score the same as they did for their own team.
  10. Having "someone who knows what they are doing" wouldn't of saved the Prem league and BT deal this season. He was the only one that put his hand in his pocket, and probably lost money. I'm not saying he is the right man for the job, He's set in his ways, that's for sure, but where would the Prem have been without him this season ? Gone maybe. Cabbage patch , well they go together with webbed feet around these parts
  11. Just been looking at some stats. The Stars need some changes next season if they want to do better. They finished just under Swindon, but finished 6th in the league. Official team GSA's to date Swindon 45.26 Lynn 45.16 Ippo 42.82 Poole 42.65 Wolves 41.66 BV 41.33 Peterborough 39.45 We need a big re shuffle next season. The only team not to win on the road this season, I think ? These are this seasons riders away averages ( just this season, not GSA's, rolling aves and not for team building). But it will confirm we can't have as many home "track specialists" next season. This season our finishing 1-7 of Lambo, Cookie, Erik, TJ. MPT ,Lewis and Nik's combined away averages add up to just 33.76.
  12. This ArthurRudge https://www.southwalesargus.co.uk/news/16202734.internet-paedophile-jailed-after-also-making-621-secret-films-of-people-urinating-at-music-festivals/
  13. I think what done it for Rory was when he sat on the centre concrete to have his hair shaved off for charity in the interval. The club clippers where crap and they asked over the PA system if anyone had clippers with em that they could use.. They ran out of time and Rory did his next race with half his hair
