Is This The Worse Team Ever To Win The League?
Bald Bloke replied to IainB's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Points money all the way through the team imho. More to " better" riders, but pay as you earn all the way.. -
Nice little compact stadium. Needs a better track, but you don't have much room. Mind you there ain't as much passing these days, anywhere. BV excluded. Your track is listed as 317 m. So you would have to go smaller.. Maybe take 25m off of the inside of the bends and bank it to the max allowed (can't remember how much) making it 292m Remember Coventry was only 301m and didn't ride like a small track.

Just for a bit of fun. I doubt the averages will be the same. Lambo 9.31 Riss 6.08 C. Wright 5.27( Somerset probably) R. Worrall 5.81 NKI 7.36 N .Covatti 4.70 S. Neilsen 3.67 42.49

My fear would be that Lewis may have had a crash to many. I hope i'm wrong. I also think that a stronger reserve is needed. Stefan or Kasper, but not both.

At the end of the day Morris shouldn't of rode for Poole in leg 2.. It don't matter IF both teams agreed to it or not, it shouldn't of been allowed to happen. It's as simple as that. . How long has the average rule for guests been in place.... 10 years, 15 or 20 years I don't know, but it's a very long time.... Has the rule ever been changed for 1 meeting and changed back as soon as the meeting had finished ?? I would guess NEVER !!…. Will it ever happen again.... Probably not. Should it have been allowed to happen.... NO! Anyone saying it was ok to allow are either liars, on a wind up, or deluded imho.. A long standing rule should NEVER be changed for 2 hours, then immediately changed back to help one team. Lynn's booking of Ellis was LEGAL at the time... Ford and Middlo went bonkers and the rule was changed in the interests of Poole the sport. Somerset were severely depleted for the meeting at Lynn in the cup leg 2 and they wasn't allowed to use Wright for the 2nd leg at Lynn because he didn't fit, he would of done with the +5% Poole was allowed for Morris.... How can this be right ?? Not interested Blue Tint replys, unless they are sensible

Along with Kurtz... Less than a point away from being a Poole reserve ! -
If the Prem survives, i'd have Lambo back, no probs. He's a crowd pleaser and on the up. Riss is great at Lynn, less so away, having said that, he's on the up as well imho. If you look at T.J 6.29, Ty on 6.57, and Riss on 6.08, i'd take Erik. For me, and it might sound harsh, but TJ and Ty have hit their level, and on a higher average as well as not being as strong as Riss at home.. I might be in "Poole" mode tonight, but that's my view

If that was the case, there must be a lot of riders who took hefty pay cuts since the Sky money stopped ! -

Bald Bloke replied to tellboy's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Maybe not.. If the £3k live meeting thing is indeed true. I doubt it covers the loss on the gate. But it is a way of getting speedway out there I guess. It was said that Sky money was pretty big, but it didn't seem to do much. I don't know where all the money went ? -

Aarnio didn't do his job, but neither did Lambo to be fair. Hope he get pick up a few more tonight.. Aarnio I mean. Lambo should be fine. I think it could go down to HT 15. For Lynn Erik should score well tonight, around 8-9 from 4.( Makes strong pair with Lambo at home) I expect Lambo to hit 11 from 5. NKI. 9 from 5 TJ and Ty around 14-15 between them. Expecting/hoping Lynn's reserves to score around 8-9. Rebels.... Top scorer JD, 11...without risking to much, no need. Reserves, still strong, 14 Inc Some of the RR rides. Harris, 8 Lawson needs a solid meeting as does Starke at 3 for the Rebels. May the best team over the 2 legs win. -

Bald Bloke replied to tellboy's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I don't think they did Lynn didn't force Poole to do anything...How could they ??? Ford wont give anything away if he thinks will help an opposing team, that's for sure.. IF Lynn and Poole agreed between themselves that Poole could use a rider that didn't fit, it was up to the powers that be so say "NO...… We are not bending a long standing rule to suit just one meeting !!! " Simples. It's done now. Might as well let it go...for now But can you imagine what would of happened if Lynn wanted to use a rider that didn't fit against anyone, let alone Poole. Charles Wright fits for Somerset at Lynn in the 2nd leg with +5% .. Can you imagine it....".Oh he don't fit", I hear everyone say.. That's sorted says May, i've dropped Buster a text and he said it was cushty… as long as Lynn can have 1 and 3 in the 1st heat.. Nothing to see here -

A little under Kurtz level Overall a fantastic season for Lambo. Started on 7.38, finished on 9.31..... 2nd only to JD. He is entitled to an off night.. Your No 1 had plenty, Kurtz 8.08... finished 6.75.... Less than a point off of a reserve slot for Poole I know what someone gonna say "He wasn't really a No1" Neither was Lambo. Kurtz started on 8.08 to Lambo's 7.38
