pirate paul Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 I can't believe you're comparing it to giving birth - shocking!! Like I said there is no comparison. manflu is far worse But have heard the kids are playing well and are better than a lot of teams in championship - performance wise, Ha ha ha, best laugh I've had for a while. We are sh*t with a big capital S. Hence the reason I am not going today, Rupert is dreaming if he thinks he's getting anymore of my money while he continues to ride roughshod over club and fans. Anyway, back to the speedway.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seb the Snail Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 I just had a text from Pints or Points saying that, "The credit crunch has finally hit Poole speedway - the budget obviously doesn't stretch far enough to buy any shale". It's extremely dusty by all accounts. I wonder if the track staff realised that Bjarne isn't riding today? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's extremely dusty by all accounts. I wonder if the track staff realised that Bjarne isn't riding today? Yes it was a dustbowl, but before people blame the track staff, it was announced that the riders requested no water put down, but either way it was a cracker of a meeting, well done ben barker, comiserations to Skornicki, lost it in the last lap, but went through the meeting unbeaten, all riders looked good like they could win it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobC Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 (edited) There was plenty of dirt.Just couldnt water it,as the track surface was frozen. Was there dust?....yes plenty of it. Was there a blue groove....yes,there was. Was there some cracking racing.....yes,plenty of it.No quarter asked or given. Was there a good crowd.......yes there was. Was it cold?....yes it was,but definitely warmer than Sittingbourne! Was it the right result....possibly.Ben looked out of control most of the time,probably scared the s**t out of opponents. Jankowski was the star of the show for me.Totally unexpected performance.Looked classy. All riders wearing the Red and White Buccaneers race jackets. Re-admission tickets were for Bournemouth Speedway!....so that looks a goer then!! On the way home there was a light flurry of snow!! Great to meet up with so many folk from other tracks. A very enjoyable day out. Edited January 4, 2009 by BobC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little-End Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 Jankowski was the star of the show for me.Totally unexpected performance.Looked classy. Lucascz is a quality Rider , Just had major bad luck with a VERY bad Shoulder/Collar Bone injury last year , EXCELLENT to see him score well , Just wonder now if Belle Vue have plans for him , I think if he dropped Poland (!) he could double up and do PL , (He`s on a 4pt average) Now that would keep him busy , OR maybe that was why he was down Dorset today ............ delivering his CV on the Track ! Well done Jankers. Lucky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Shovlar Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 Well having now thawed myself out what can I say? What a great meeting! Brilliant racing all afternoon from a very even field. Star man Skornicki was clearly the best rider on display but fell asleep on the final lap of the final and allowed a 50 metre lead to disappear in three quarts of a lap. Bet he was kicking himself on that one. Really silly of him. A very good crowd turned up with fans from all over the country. Saw Mildenhall, Kings lynn, Coventry, plymouth, Somerset, Stoke, Peterborough, Reading, Wolverhampton, Redcar, Exeter, Swindon and of course Poole fans in attendance and I should think nearly all clubs were represented by fans. On entering the stadium I noticed the track was bone dry, but having asked about it, the riders didn't want any water put down. It was so cold it could have frozen the surface. Understandable for them as the track was extremely smooth. But it didn't affect the racing at all with some brilliant heats throughout the whole meeting. Star of the show was adam Skornicki who was dominant throughout except for the last lap of the final. Other riders of note were ben barker, who is erratic in the extreme but fun to watch, Jankowski, who really should be picked up, and bridger who made a real t*t of himself in his final heat which blew him out of the final due to stupid riding. Noteworthy of a mention are Frampton, who after a poor first ride rode superbly to take some scalps, Piczsz, who looks like a great signing for Poole away meetings, and Kennett, who perhaps should have done better overall due to his track experience. I doubt anyone left the stadium disapointed with racing like that. Now to start a campaign to keep the NYC at Poole in 2010! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
