stevebrum Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 probably due to a fone call from you know who... smart now subject to a gagging order , please dont spill the beans or you'll get us in trouble lol At least its still visible after being quoted on here. Too late MF, the cheating secret has already been exposed. @LeeSmarty04: Unavailable my ass been sacked over 2 weeks ago #pullingafastone Typical Poole. Sack their rider and try to strengthen by saying hes unavailable and using guests. Question is when will somebody stand up to them? Just in case anyone missed it 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmc82 Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 In this case what would the alternative be? If a team doesnt qualify for a facility they have to go with a NL rider - thats exactly the same in this instance. Are you suggesting Poole should be forced to go with 6 riders and their No6 be limited to prigrammed rides only? No. They should have to replace him with a lower rider instead of using guests based on where they ride best 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebrum Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Lets see Shovlar defend them once again stevie boy !! Oh he will. He didnt see it/ probably all been made up/he was asked to stand down and he did/i believe everything MF says - delete as applicable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heathen chemistry Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 they should be made to choose a rider below him in the draft , but this should of been enforced as soon as one is sacked, not allow teams to use guests - simple rule http://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/sport/11186889.Poole_Pirates__Ford_set_to_name_Smart_replacement/ HE WAS SACKED... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Smith Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 People are getting funny over this for no reason what so ever. Pole have sacked Smart, so what!!!!!! Smart is averaging under 2, if that was my club I'd expect the rider to be binned off. Any draft rider averaging less than 3.5 isn't developing. Smart is probably a little p!ssed because he can no longer pick up a £120 check for doing fook all in meetings. Just putting it bluntly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Shovlar Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Hopefully the rain will hold off long enough for tonight's meeting to go ahead. looks like it isn't going to be as bad as first though. typical now I have made the decision not to head up there.

Smart is probably a little p!ssed because he can no longer pick up a £120 check for doing fook all in meetings. Just putting it bluntly Absolutely. Look at it this way. If you were employed and given the heave oh, would you want everyone to know about it? It must be embarrassing being sacked in a normal job, but on a sport with fans it must be doubly so. Better to say the rider wants to leave or is being rested than embarrass him by announcing he has been sacked. Oh he will. He didnt see it/ probably all been made up/he was asked to stand down and he did/i believe everything MF says - delete as applicable. As I said above what difference does it make other than protect the feelings of a rider? So Poole sack Smart. They get a facility of another rider of similar ability. End of. The rider says he is leaving. Poole get a facility of another rider of similar ability. There is no difference! Poole signed a rider two weeks ago to replace Smart, but this rider got injured. So Smart came back and rode on Wednesday. Now he is not even turning out for his NL team. Make of that what you will. What exactly do you expect them to do? Ride with 6 riders? They don't gain any advantage out of Smarts departure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klindt already been sacked and was sacked last year publicly. Better the say the rider was sacked than to try and cover it up with cloak and dagger. The difference it makes, seeing as you asked is that it looks transparent to the rest of viewing Speedway world. However i am not surprised you fail to see why Poole get stick time and time again. In Shovlar`s world - its all ok. In the real world people suspect Poole of wrong doing yet again. The blue brigade no doubt excuse us of being jealous of success to deflect yet more wrong doing. We already have and it's announced tomorrow. Announce Smart has been sacked then...... like any other promoter would do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poole gain no advantage one way or the other. We would get the same facility. So what wrongdoing would that be then? Moaning for meanings sake.

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Mountains out of mole hills from some on this one IMO. Yes I agree a new draft selection needed to be made immediately. The thing is it seems it was but this rider got injured. If that is the case then Id say a guest for a couple of meetings rather than a permanent signing is perfectly reasonable. Time to have it sorted now though and seems it will be by tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Poole didn`t get anything out of the match-however that`s not the point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherborne Green Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Far more interesting than the reserves is Darcy Ward. Seeing his tweet yesterday that he appeared to have pressure put on him to ride for his Polish team when even he says he is not fit. 11th May not far away and I wonder what will the choices for Poole be? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
