My favourite away rider. Hope it’s sorted by March.
-
For Christmas at yours do all the kids presents go in one big box for them to open or is each item wrapped separately?
-
The trouble with Gavan and some others is they don’t realise when you’re pulling their chain. Someone says Morris is better than Kurtz in the UK and then backs it up with proof so as to wrap things up. Then someone, usually the same types argue for devilment even though it’s not a point for debate. Gavan takes it seriously and off we go. During my early years on the forum I got sucked in with this kind of thing as it never dawned on me people would be so odd. It still fascinates me somewhat that people like to behave that way. Like I say to my kids, the sooner you realise some people are dicks and not to engage them, the better your life will be.

He averaged over 7 for us and that included three trips to Wolves. If his form stood still he would put a point on his average, but it won’t so I’m expecting big things from him this season. Great news.
-
“Poole fans happy with Kurtz. Belle Vue fans happy with Tungate and a saving of the best part of two points. Who is the best deal?”
-
Not interested in a UK return which is a shame as his 7 point odd average would have made him an attractive addition to most starting line ups come March.
-
Well said. When we raced at the dogtrack people took great delight on knocking it even though more often than not the racing was good. Very similar to Wolves but as you say worth its place. Id rather take the opinion of Crump and the other great Aces that enjoyed the circuit rather than a handful of fans who just seemed to want to knock the great club.
-
Joe was at a similar low ebb after being ditched by Wolves and it especially hurt seeing three Brits replaced by two. He alway felt it was him that was replaced by a foreigner. He was pleased as punch when we offered him a full season and is baffled and none to pleased that no other top flight club was so benevolent towards him. He must be gutted that a lack of a team place in the CL means he cannot take advantage of Belle Vues back the Brits policy.
-
It was a great shame that the BSPA cut the points limit right back after we topped the league. I’m just please we managed to replaced our outgoing British reserves with two more Brits. I was looking forward to Joe returning this year but once it was clear he couldn’t make it pay without a CL place and none made an offer the chance was gone. It needs more teams to back the Brits to make it work. It’s a shame we don’t own a CL club. Best of luck Joe.

After the ventriloquist and before the meat raffle.

For me it’s about giving something back. Those blokes that gave up their time picking you out of the airfence or just stood holding a flag whilst you learned to slide a bike. I love seeing a lad succeed and to see them strut their stuff as a top liner after all those years is great. Whats the saying, be nice on your way up
-
That was our fault, sorry.
-
His average then was subject to the increase all riders without a CL average had imposed on them. This was removed later in the season. From what we have been told he isn’t now a 4.
-
It’s not about having a go at Poole, it’s more about what Belle Vue have to contend with. Drozdz would be four anywhere else, no question. The only good thing to come out of this is a list has now been produced though not available to fans. We were too far down the road with Drozdz and this was known to the list compiler but we’re still hopeful of a correct assessment.
-
Lebadev on 4.50 it seems. Like Musielek last year and Woryna this year.
-
I always put a bit away each day so I can afford my programmes for the season. It works out about 12p a day and whilst I realise not all can afford it I just like to treat myself.
-
He’s now been given a 6.55 average but with everybody thinking it was 7.26 he has missing out on a top flight team......again.
-
Colts finished on 50.40. The new level was lowered to 39. Of course we are going to off load riders like Rob wether we like it or not. If you think we have done nothing team wise since we won the title then you are very much mistaken.
-
Never been successful on previous occasions, same with SCB.
-
Does anyone know where Richie Worrall gets his 7.26 average from? He only averaged 6.27 with Poole but maybe with him only riding seven meetings he didn’t earn a new average. Saying that though Max Clegg got a new 2.00 figure after only four meetings for Wolves. If they deem Richie to not have ridden enough PL meetings then his average should be a conversation of his CL average which was 8.52. Divide that by 1.2 gives 7.10 or by 1.3 gives 6.55. I know it might be the Belle Vue thing and they have even put Con next to his average such is the subtly of the powers that be. I’d be interested in an answer.
-
Is it divided by 1.2?
-
Don’t forget it only 2 home 2 away to get an average as per the Clegg ruling.
-
Back?
-
The track has deteriorated over the last ten years to get to its current low state. Whinging tends to increase the older they get. These two factors plus the rumoured performance related pay instead of the usual big bucks pay out means it’s a no go for several old timers.
-
I think it’s all down to the track especially with a whinger like Holder. There is no way he’d ride that every week. Not surprised KK and Hans aren’t returning along with others. This will be the issue with the poles dispite their high salaries, if they think the home circuit will jeopardise their Polish pay then expect them out of trouble at the back. Ford needs to splash out on the racetrack instead of a potentially high scoring reserve.
