He's struggling to walk let alone ride the bike so do you really think that'll happen? If it does then fair play and in all honesty I'd rather keep Klindt if he can still ride to his potential. But can/will he be able to?

Klindt needs to have the op and rest up 'til next season while we bring in someone who, even though they may be less able, will score a few points a meeting. 3, 4 or even 5 points are better than the zilch Klindt will unfortunately score.

:rofl: As I said, you have no idea who I am or how many times I've been to Poole, period. My assessment (not opinion!) was posted to give a balanced view of Monday's meeting. Your assessment was biased as they always are. So if someone who's attended Poole regularly (with his father) since the mid 70's isn't a Poole supporter then tell me who is? Oh and my mother used to babysit for Middlo when he was a toddler (no I can't prove it on here but it's a fact) so I'm far better qualified than you in some respects. My God man, you really are up yourself and often speaking on behalf of "all Poole supporters" - however some of us detest your arrogance. You are a nobody in the grand scheme of things, just an arrogant little man sitting in the grandstand week after week. Then again that obviously make you Poole's No. 1 fan in your eyes? Post of the month people! Spot on there Sid I'm very often there with my father. And you call me a troll !!! What a very sad man you are. Again I concur fella. He is and I wish. Nail and head! Oh dear Lisa, Shovlar will be all over that like a rat up a drainpipe!

She's calm and has a cool head on her shoulders so thumbs up from me. Sophie B wasn't far behind IMO even though she was confined to the pits doing interviews and was never given the chance to present.

My assessment is completely different to yours. If you can't see that then there really is no hope for you. I haven't posted on the Poole Forum regularly for well over a year so that's another crock of crap from you!! And you have absolutely NO IDEA how many times I've been to Poole this season, last season or for the last 35 odd years I've been supporting them. Oh and not all of us can skive off work like you can at a drop of a hat to have a jolly watching the Pirates, however I have been to most tracks over the years, some quite frequently. You get told time and time again you're full of bull and this post is no exception. Every club has 'one' and you're most definitely ours...with Starman egging you on which is embarrassing to say the least.

I have to say that words fail me regarding most of Shovlar's posts. He's either the forum's top wind up merchant or really does believe the blue tinted cobblers he posts. His rider assessments are way off as are his views (when he actually expresses them) about our track. For me (a real Poole supporter); Kurtz - a couple of dodgy rides but got dialled in to produce a No.1's performance in his last 3. Holder - great nights racing and great to watch in the deep stuff! Nuff said. R/R - Produced about the same as Zengi Klindt - Shouldn't have been there, get that op ASAP! Anderson - Fought hard after a really nasty smack on the back of his neck/noggin' What more can you ask for? Most would've pulled out but he knew we needed him so raced on. Respect. Starke - Was awesome in heat 11, had me on the edge of my seat! Held his own the rest of the night. Can't argue with 9 from a reserve birth. Shanes - Solid if not exceptional. Doing his job and deserves more than he gets. As for BV they were all pretty good and most were great at some point. Worrall wasn't overly impressive and Smith found it hard going but Cookie was on fire! Rider of the night (with Holder a close second). Bjerre started off well but faded towards the end, Tungate was what you expect - a gutsy 7 points, Fricke was under par (possibly didn't feel at home on the bumpy track) and Bewley was very impressive in a couple of rides, deserved more that 6. Has a big future that kid. Overall we were beaten by two things; 1) A better team on the night and 2) Klindt taking his place. If we had brought in a guest or had he been replaced immediately after his injury then we may well have got the extra few points needed for the win. I also have to question Middlo putting him out for his last ride, however he did get a point against Bewley! As for the track, well it looked bad. Saying it gives us a home advantage is laughable! Look at what happened to Kyle and look at what (nearly) happened to Holder at least 2 or 3 times last night! You take a huge risk blasting around the outside and many riders just won't take this risk. Just look at Bjerre hugging the low line. He's not stupid! Hopefully something will be done to the track in the future and if that has to wait until the off season then so be it, but nobody can really defend it's current state at times. Well there you have it folks

At least he's old enough to drink!

Facts is facts Skids

Fan? Surely you mean freeloader

So we have 2 Starkes in our team do we? :rofl: J Holder & Klindt vs S.Worrall and Tungate methinks

I was completely against the sacking of Kyle, but let's be honest Starkey outscored him by a fair margin tonight on his recent form for Poole.

There's a first for everything

It's all just speculation started off by flagrag so I wouldn't be concerned by it until something official happens....IF it ever does. Where has this rumour that MF is considering selling come from? His actions this week point to the complete opposite IMO.

And your source for this 'gossip/hearsay' is what? Gomolski for Klindt I would assume should this have any truth to it.

Got to be our No. 1 or possibly Klindt if he's carrying an injury the remainder of the season. Anyone else after Kyle would be scandalous! Shovlar might be able to hear a mouse fart but he's been proven completely wrong in the past on supposed things he's 'been told'. He's also the master of 'forgetting what I posted yesterday and today my posts contradict them'. I'll say nothing more as I don't wish to have yet another battle on 'ere with the Poole gob

First point - that's because you were banned for life (apparently). Ask yourself why. Your own club where you do voluntary work bans you from it's own forum and the person that bans you, you know personally. Priceless Second point - as always you completely and utterly misunderstand the point I was making, Dear oh dear fella. Nothing changes ay

Was he? I must confess that I didn't use it much in recent times due to the guff playgroud it had become...and he was one of the main culprits to be fair.

I don't think bringing Paul Starke back to Poole is much of an issue as he was also very popular a couple of years ago and he should score like for like which doesn't really do us as a team any improvement which is why it's such a baffling decision. It's the sacking of Kyle which has hit the supporters very hard. I also feel quite sorry for Paul as the situation isn't his fault, but I feel he may get a bit of an unjust backlash from the 'boo boys'. Matt Ford has also told him he HAS to hit the ground running or he's out too!! The whole thing seems very strange...

As you say the writing has been on the wall with that for a few years and I had seen an improvement (i.e. a couple of inane posters had seemed to have disappeared in recent times) however the sacking of Kyle has lead to a bit of a meltdown. I posted on there only yesterday morning to return today to see it gone all but the updates section! I never understood why peptalk didn't just ban the continual offending posters as he policed the forum admirably (unlike on here). For what it's worth this move by Matt Ford has surprised me as he really has alienated a fairly large section of supporters. Kyle, whilst never pulling up tress, has be a fantastic, reliable and hugely loyal Poole rider for the last 4-5 years and that has earned him a hell of a lot of love on the terraces. His never say die style of riding (when fully fit) was always a joy to watch. Whilst I tend to agree with most of Matt's rider management (but not always his business acumen!), this is a very poor decision which may cost him in more ways than one.

NO!

30,000 fans at Cardiff prove you wrong year after year...they must also be a part of this 'large majority' then?

:rofl: You continue to speak for the whole Poole speedway fan base when it's only YOUR opinion. Dust started after heat 4 as you've been told time and time again. Just accept it and move on. How should I show my face? A very strange comment by quite frankly the strangest person on this forum. I was at Poole last Weds and stood in my usual spot between (the very dusty - no matter what SS says!) bends 1 and 2. You and anyone else is welcome to seek me out...but then again all I do is sit behind an ipad and laptop! :rofl: Spot on! Do you think that the more times you type that the more it will become real? Poole had already won the meeting so Neil decided to give the younger Poole riders a go as it's a chance for extra cash etc. Morris isn't a Poole rider so I guess he felt our own riders deserved that chance bearing in mind we didn't need points.

Utter rubbish as usual. That should read 'for a large minority'.

Completely and utterly WRONG as usual.

I wasn't nit picking, just pointing out you were completely WRONG as you very often are. You post your opinion, not facts time after time. Dust started around heat 4 as I (as was my father) was stood right in the middle of it for the majority of the meeting. That is a FACT Mr cry baby. Oh and Morris couldn't do any more (paid 9 from 3) - and that's far better than 'did his job'. FACT. Another spot on post BOOM! Owned Shovlar. So now it's foolish to stand between bends? You're priceless. My father and I stand in the same spot my father has always stood since he started going to Poole speedway as a teen so there is a bit of (foolish apparently) sentiment. Dear oh dear... There can't have been as SS says otherwise! I'd rather have Tai! Shovlar is the be all and end all at Poole.....in his own little world that is
