What a disrespectful post an important 2/3 points can make the difference in winning the meeting.The other week at the Abbey ok we beat Rye House easily but Jack Smith v Max Clegg there meeting's were mini battle's it is a team sport not everyone are World Champion material i have respect for every rider your last sentence tells me you don't.
-
What you are saying Ray is if your other riders had rode to there full potential nothing at all would of been said about James.Also with James when i have seen him ride and you know more about him than me he has rode his nuts off supporters can relate to that.If Swindon could swap Shane's for Smith a big yes from me and that is meant with disrespect to Jack .But I do believe Jack can improve and he can do that with no pressure as most home supporters hope for a minimum of 2 points per meeting.
-
The Shane's scenario you have not quite grasped it, no one else as far as i know has backed you on that issue because Poole had bigger issues to address before Shane's.Also on Rosco at Swindon we have had poor seasons as well just like any other club success goes around in cycles.Some of the riders at Poole have not been good anough end of certainly this year is that totally Ford who picks them i don't know.The side assembled by Ford this year really was based on POTENTIAL a few risks in there Gavan stated that he got (slated) but it has backfired. Starting tonight they can try and rectify thing's build on Monday's encouraging performance and push on.

Very easy to get all the fixtures up all leagues most teams in the NL have only had about four away meeting's.

Go on the updates.

Why would i put you on ignore? your opinion is valid you are entitled to it but you are not consistent Poole have had a great run success wise over a long period.Middleditch did not win all those trophie's by luck and by the way handling big stars keeping everyone happy is not easy.As for the Shanes debate you are totally WRONG would a team in trouble believe replacing a two pointer would be the end of there troubles just be truthful Shanes was shafted how is MS still there?.Even with Nielsen in the team the problems were still there replacing Shanes did not make a lot of difference do you think James scoring 4 rather than 2 was the difference I don't.

Your side Wolves Steve have done for years what Swindon have in place now continuity using a same pool of riders and getting the benefit.Thorssell a brilliant example now with PK,Freddie being awesome servants over the years how many clubs would of retained the young Greaves this year not many chuffed that he is making progress this year.
-
You change from day/day you gave it large before the season started saying Poole would p... the league you put your head on the chopping block but when you got it wrong you cannot take the flak.Who i feel for are the real Poole posters on here we all know who they are who are real people and have a balanced opinion.It is a funny thing to say but i want Poole to turn it around they are good for the league i want the sport to prosper as a whole and for it to get stronger.
-
Total rubbish Middleditch his record speaks for itself people who i know in speedway ( who i respect) all say what an excellent man/manager Middlo is he backs his riders to the hilt in bad times also he is a great human being .How much input does Neil have? does he take the brunt when Poole fail? does Ford call all the shots ? the riders in that team this year have to take responsibility Middleditch cannot be blamed for everything.
-
If the league can be structured where the likes of Jenkins,Kemp,Edwards,Brennan,Hume,Mountain,Wood,Blackburn,Flint, (etc ) are mixed in that could be the way to go.Most of those riders can double up ( I know fixture planning is a problem) so riding in the top division is more about experience than anything.Two examples here a Poole team next year Holder,Holderjnr) Kurtz,Woryna,Sundstrom,Jenkins,Brennan. Swindon. Morris,Ellis,Batch,Musielak Zach, Kemp, Hume both exciting line ups.
-
Do you think some people just like change everyyear? get to past Christmas the excitement of a new season coming they want fresh faces.For me why change for change sake the art is blooding in fresh blood when needed hopefully an improver and then fit them in the jigsaw.If we win nothing this year so what we have been competitive it would of given me anough pleasure seeing Adam/Zach developing and Nick and there is still more to come from him in the future.
-
I don't know what your theory is on building teams Grachan is mine is Continuty having a good team spirit and hopefully keeping the core of the team from the previous year.We have that now Nick,Adam,Zach, all shoe ins for next year Musielak,Batch Bellego could still feature depending on the rules.Swindon what a move that was keeping faith with Nick now we are reaping the rewards and he can still ride better this year hope Nick gets his testimonial at Swindon.

Poole v Leicester Prem A. 30/5/18
Sidney the robin replied to Steve Shovlar's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Looking at Poole's next 8 fixtures even with this line up i think they are well capable of winning six of those all is not lost.King's Lynn who arranged there fixtures?. again riders missing Kinsley (for Jorgensen) . -
But you have never quite grasped the fact that most people only expected James as a two pointer to score his average.If the rest of the team had been doing there jobs James would not even of been mentioned.Last year as the year went on James got better the simple fact is James was made the scapegoat but plenty have over the years.Loyalty patience it does work at Swindon we have Adam,David,Zach all riders that Rossiter believes in and they can be part of the future for years to come.

Wolverhampton v Poole Prem B. 28/5/18
Sidney the robin replied to Steve Shovlar's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
He is entitled to his opinion and most of it is true, last night was a glorious chance missed but all in all it was an encouraging performance by the Pirates.Woryna all of us know what a talent he is so to have him at reserve is a real plus also i did not realise how good Woryna was from the back he is a strong charger.But it makes no difference if Starke 1) MS 1 and Josh underperform and bringing in Klindt i just don't get that one you need battlers at the moment to get you out of your predicament.Leicester tomorrow has to be commanding win a confidence booster to set you up for a final push. -
The thing is Ghosty Shanes has been made the scapegoat at Swindon we expect Smith to score 1/2/points.This Poole team has underachieved badly and James wore the brunt of this Klindt/ Starke both who have been bang average in the Championship really?.Now knowing how Woryna still won't come in at reserve how are those two in over Auty? he will at least battle his cause race to the last god Klindt a gating tart if i ever saw one. Ford has lost the plot lose badly today and god forbid if Leicester win on Wednesday season over.
-
I think Poole just need to regroup take stock but the problems are nothing terminal speedway in this Country has to change maybe Matt Ford knows the days of the big stars have gone.Maybe our Country needs to reinvent its speedway maybe one big league might work ???? personally i think it will never happen? but create teams with a lower level of rider.I don't take great delight in Poole struggling because Poole have such a following the revenue when meeting them is so vital also my team Swindon are not unbeatable i don't think they will win the league.I just hope the clubs can work together more maybe i am wrong but some of the crowds are worrying something has to change.
-
Total nonsense i would never write Poole off you take the rough with the smooth then winning is even sweeter.
-
I did hear Kemp was very special the other week on the Island we can just hope Drew and Leon are part of a bright future fingers crossed eh!
-
I remember Hume did beat Bewley in heat 1 in 2016 since then injury has held him back.
-
I think with a clear run Hume should be number 1 come the end of the season his away form doing that for him.Flint i have been told by a source who i respect bigtime said he has excellent aquipment and has a fair bit of experience on the continent.I have followed his progress over the last few years and the main thing that comes across is what a polite and friendly lad he is having that and a good temprement is a massive plus.Was looking at the fixtures i will go to Belle Vue on the 22nd with a bit of luck an awesome track and to see Danyon, Leon, Jack around there should be terrific.
-
Does anyone no if young Leon Flint is top of the averages at the first set of averages does he have to go to no 1? I can remember Tom Brennan doing it at Eastbourne is that rule still in place? the same will happen to young Kemp at Mildenhall.For me it is very important that both of those prospects are protected and aloud to progress slowly with no pressure.
