Wolves will win but Swindon will still top the table, so don't worry about it.

He does tend to drop off towards the end of a meeting.

But it does get a tad tedious over time.

Think you're right. Wolves by 10.

Kennett used to be good in his drill-bit days, but not now really. As our only home defeat so far is to Poole, it would be nice comfortably in this one. However, a defeat for Poole changes nothing, both teams will be in the playoffs, but in my opinion Swindon are now favourites with Belle Vue just behind them.

I see it like this at moment,1. Swindon 2. Belle Vue 3. Wolves 4. Poole. Swindon pick Poole leaving Belle Vue v Wolves. Then a Swindon v Belle Vue final.

I'm getting confused, I thought you meant Howarth, but of course you mean Newman. The season not going his way at all.

Where was that ?

Doesn't make any difference, both teams will be the play-offs.

You're not really following the form are you, Swindon favourites for the title ahead of Belle Vue, in my opinion.

I've followed the Wolves since Saturday 1967 and the doldrums is our default position! Didn't see a trophy till 1991. Anyway just joshing with you, one of the acknowledged decent/sensible Poole fans.

That's why you are popular..........................because you are in the Doldrums

Have you ever heard of the expression 'sour grapes' ?

Just so I understand your point, who do Poole have out on loan this year ?

Lindgren in his twilight ? He's having his best ever year in the GP's and is still top class in the UK.

Whoops, not up to date with the current averages, had assumed Masters was 4th in the averages. In that case, not too bad if only 1 reserve ride

Website says late decision will be made on Masters. Could be a banana skin match either way round.He rides but is not fit and we don't get many points from his rides. Alternatively we use r/r which means two rides have to be covered by our weak reserves.

There was a point I think when there were 9 teams in the league and Morten Risager had ridden for 7 of them ! (Or thereabouts) Well let's face it, for non-Poole fans that would be comedy gold. 🤗

Not quite yet. Poole were +7 and kings Lynn +4. With this defeat you are level, but still in it. With the Stars not looking too good (Holder situation etc), it might just be a case of who loses the least at home for the rest on the season. Once in the play-offs, well anything can happen.

That's something you don't normally see in the same sentence, Starman and words of wisdom 😂

Updated says both Poole riders excluded for being the cause of the stoppage. How is that a gift ?

Give it a rest with this pie in the sky nonsense.

Because some of the riders already ride for other championship teams, and some of the other riders eg Nilsson might not want to ride in the championship at all.

It's a difficult one. You don't want the same team winning every year (did Poole do 4 titles in 5 years?) but the continual turnover of riders doesn't allow a bond to be built with the riders. Wolves supporters are lucky in one way as the promotion are loyal to riders Freddie Lindgren for example hasn't ridden for anyone else.
