You’ve done this before, sorry but I don’t believe a word you say. I’m very comfortable with what I know regarding Jenkins. If you want to believe he’d rather be at Oxford, then that’s your prerogative, but you’d be wrong.
I didn't say anything this time, other than ask for your source - which is somewhat lacking still? Care to elaborate?

Jenkins never wanted to be anywhere other than Ipswich in the top flight. That was his only focus and in the end, got the move he desperately wanted.
You're source for this information? I know JJ personally, and I'd love to know where you think you know this from (and so would he I'd imagine).

without doubt the team to beat
which will make it more fun when lynn do lower their colours 😉
Especially as all the other teams are currently missing at least 5/6 riders.

Oxford yes, but Birmingham moved up due to race night restrictions not primarily because they wanted to, theres always the possibility that Lynn would of dropped down as well i suppose
Technically, that's true, but only because they were blocked from joining the Premiership in 2021 by the other clubs not wanting to share the TV money. When Peterborough and Wolverhampton sadly closed, the other clubs then realised they might not get any TV money and Oxford were miraculously welcomed with open arms in 2024. Funny that!

#TwoTierMorris has to resign then considering he's playing favourites in regards to his former club Birmingham.
Pushing for the entire league to make sacrifices for 1 club makes his position untenable imo.
Maybe you should wait for some actual evidence before calling for resignations. So far the sources are 'a couple of people on a forum'.

You seriously need to let it go. Nobody got hurt. Move on. Or are you going to bore everyone all winter with this stuff.
There's the first... who's next?

How long have we got before the outraged Poole fans jump on this thread?

There's a difference between dangerous & ruthless. Pedersen wasn't dangerous
Exactly. It's bizarre how many people simply don't get that.

Shutting off is not going to move him forward in his racing career.
So has he gone backwards since starting his racing career two years ago?

They maybe don’t see it as profitable ,certainly some Clubs struggled in the past. The Team Berwick we’re running a couple of seasons ago weren’t cheap and crowds levels were nothing special.Hence stopped.
Oxford run an NDL team and it’s extremely profitable. Close to 1,000 people turn up each time a meeting is held. If Oxford can do it, surely ‘the best club in the world’ can make it a success.

If u can please read my post correctly i did put the best club not the best team when comparing with the Polish Ekstraliga champions Lublin!
Team or club, my point is valid. Which is the better attended? Which has the biggest turnover? Which makes the most profit? Which is the more successful at the highest level? Which is the more attractive to riders? Which pays better?
I’m posting this purely to fish, as I know the Poole fans will still try and argue against the obvious!

For all my followers i did have a TREBLE celebration flat white on Thursday morning.
It's taken me until now to report it because I've been celebrating so much because Poole are the best club in the speedway world with the best supporters ever.
So there we go, yippeeeee!
Hiccup.
I’d love to see Poole vs Lublin!

Yes he turned left but in the video from the first bend he turned right. 😄
So what and where did Dan Bewley speak/write about the crash with Scott/Foord?
This has to be a parody account, surely?
A rider's perspective doesn't change because you're looking at it from a different angle! 😆

Wow so are speedway riders not expected to entertain? Is the sport not meant to be entertaining, just 'safe'? What next? Stabilisers on bikes?!
One of the most ignorant responses I've ever read. There's a bit difference between entertaining, and existing just to entertain. You understand the difference, right?

This really is a vile thread. The lad is learning and is no doubt going to be a very good rider. The OP should be ashamed of himself for starting such an awful thread.
I find your lack of concern for rider welfare vile. Do they just exist to entertain you? I find that attitude abhorrent.

I’ve seen Jason Garrard crash in every meeting I’ve seen either live or Tv ,does that make him dangerous,of course not.Need to get over all this nonsense about Vinnie .IMO
If you can't tell the difference between Jason Garrad riding around and falling off on his own, and Vinnie Foord riding around and dangerously taking off an opposing rider(s) because he doesn't have the skill to control his speed - then I'm not sure your opinion is worth listening to. Sorry.

Can we just take it as read that any rider who was killed in action 'left us too soon'
The most complete list is here:
True, but no harm in remembering some of those that we've seen and sadly miss.
The sheer size of that list is shocking by the way.

OK so if you don't accept Middlo's or Poole riders' views about what is dangerous then how about Dan Bewley's?
I've already answered that question. And a lot of people seem fixated on just the two crashes at Poole... what about all the other wrecked air fences from other meetings?

Lets hope so - speedway is full of corners .
Yes, but it's something Vinnie struggled with.

Maybe as strange as you saying you need to be or have been a rider to see if a rider is 'dangerous'?
It's not strange, and I didn't say that anyway. However, some non-riders (most Poole fans, it seems) don't recognise the danger, and just enjoy the 'entertainment'. It's not rocket science.

Strange that Middlo and his team mates don't have issues with Vinnie. I'm sure Ben Cook would have passed on any concerns to Dan Bewley if there were any..
You think that's strange? 😆

Just waiting for @BackInTheDHSS to start on Dan Bewley for thinking Vinnie isn't dangerous like he does with other people
I bet his thoughts change once he has shared the track with him - although, as I’ve said before, hopefully he’s turned a corner now.
And remind me, your experience of sharing a race track with dangerous riders is what exactly? Getting hit by shale from the terraces doesn’t count. I’ve had personal experience of it, so apologies if 1) it bothers me a little more than you, and 2) I don’t take what you think seriously.

If he's part of his biggest sponsor, maybe he can just ask him personally then? Then he'd know the truth as well, instead of posting inaccuracies on here. But hey ho, each to their own.
