  1. We already have Kasper on a 4.00, when he averaged 2.55 in 2018. I think Bomber on his inflated average could be a mistake.
  2. I always thought the Panthers team looked very good, and expensive...To expensive for a team coming up a league who can't be sure how the crowds will go. If Boro and Ippo had the same budget, i'm not surprised at the re shuffle. Although not fair on Bomber as well as the fans. Why was he signed to begin with..... Feel sorry for the Panthers fans, but you still have Cook and Hans, and maybe Tungate, and with your reserves still make you strong. I hope Harris gets a team place asap. We have Kasper at Lynn on a 4.00, who averaged 2.55 last season for Lynn , so wouldn't really want Bomber on a high average as well. The mind boggles...
  3. Pleased that Poole have a new sponsor. But we don't want none of this.....
  4. Less of the "good Riss". I'm hoping he's spoken for
  5. Brings back memories of an old Weslake on a bike rack, perched on the back of a Cortina, flip the bonnet up and charge the magic box
  6. I would never rule Poole out of a play off place, But King's Lynn .
  7. Well Ford wouldn't want him on a -1.45 average, that's for sure
  8. With Kasper on a 4, we might be giving away points there, although i'm sure he will add to last seasons 2.55 with doubling up (if allowed ?) Robert will probably add half a point. Still don't know if NKI is coming back. I suspect not. If that's the case the Stars will struggle if he is not replaced like for like.
  9. Seeing as he averaged 2.55 for Lynn in 2018, I think 3.46 is plenty
  10. No. I wouldn't of posted it if I had. What happened to him?
  11. Edit... I have since been informed that Filip is wheelchair bound. I genuinely didn't know . Sorry.. Filip Sitera. I believe Buster bought him from Coventry
  12. No I guess. But sometime riders will clock on and give Poole a miss in the end..Bit like a prison, at Poole your just a number
  13. Don't look good Maybe replaced by Arena as with the MX track a multi venue ? Fingers crossed
  14. No doubt Ford wanting out is probably the main reason for the sponsor situation. I thought the bib thing was poor from Poole in 2018, although they didn't look bad tbh, only Woryna looked out of place. The jolly up for 8-9 ? at the end of the season would of cost much more than the kevlars would have, but we don't know all the facts.
  15. The static means the ignition timing can't be adjusted on the fly, only manually at standstill. The single source bit I think is pretty much the same as the static rule in that it stops the rider switching from 1 ignition to a secondary ignition on the fly. So not technically adjusting the ignition, but switching between 2. Much the same thing. As adonis said in a previous post, rev limiters work fine on tarmac when the wheel isn't spinning. On my road bike all it does it makes it feel like the bike is misfiring and the bike won't pull anymore. But a speedway bike needs to be spinning to turn the thing, so if it did cut in mid corner, in theory the bike would grip/stop spinning for a split second, but in that time will it be enough to launch the bike ? I've only rode a speedway bike on a field, badly, so it would be good to hear from someone with more knowledge on the limiter thing .
  16. If It's true regarding Scotty, there must be something different going on at Boro than Ippo. Buster has bought both, but it seems looking at the Panthers team, money has been spent.. Team in place, and a strong one at that. Someone other than Buster must be funding some of the wages imho..And it's not as been said, that the riders want to ride for Boro… They need paying at the end of the day.. Being a Lynn fan, it a bit of a funny one as well. Buster said he enjoyed 2018 and wants to go one better this season, and challenge for the title. Yet It seems to me Lynn won't be as strong as Boro Whoops, just realised it's a Poole thread
  17. Mine would join you.. I know Lynn have Lambo, but looks like NKI isn't coming back, and my guess he won't be replaced with like for like, if not Lynn will struggle.. I know we don't know the teams for deffo yet, but it does look like Boro maybe on a bigger budget.
  18. Agree. If Heeps is serious, maybe he could use Buster to get those fitness guys Lynn used last season. Would do him the world of good.
  19. So that begs the question... Who is paying the wages for that team. Stars Buster, Ippo Buster, Boro Buster, or another ?
  20. I think replacing Neils is a must. A cook, Bjerre, Hans standard of rider.. Bit late now. If we don't replace NKI, we are stuffed in 13 and 15, then you have Kasper who averaged 2.55 last season on a 4.00, he is young and should improve though. Then if Lewis is back, he will be on 5.36.I wish him all the best, but he has had some bad ones, is it one to many. I just think if there is no Neils, and Kasper (2.55 last year) on a 4.00, we can't afford to gamble on Lewis as well. We will get stuffed away and loose a few at home as well with the team predicted. When you look at Wolves, Peterborough and Swindon, Lynn would look pretty poor I'm sure I won't be the only one to ask how come one of Busters new clubs have built such a strong looking side for 2019, if indeed Lynn go with the predicted team.
