Hunters Posted July 5, 2014 Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 C'mon the Stars, the more points they take off other teams the better for the Bees play-off chances. And you let us down on Thursday - dont do it again! Come off it ! Do you really think the Eagles are even a remote challenger for a play off place? Not a hope in hell, you must be having a senior moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a hope in hell, you must be having a senior moment. Â True. Eastbourne are currently 7th in the stats that count (pts gained v. points lost) with -2 whereas Coventry are 3rd with +3. Â Says the fan from the team who are pretty much guaranteed to finish top this season! Â I suspect there are many Coventry and Poole fans who do not agree with you. Â Despite the many problems in the EL, the play-offs are not one of them. Â Why would they disagree - having lost the league by finishing 4th surely a chance to win the KO/playoff Cup would be welcome? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â I've always felt this way. whether Lynn be top or not. If Lynn finish top this year it will be on merit, and should be recognised as such..... When Coventry beat Poole in the play-offs was a good meeting. But one good night don't deserve to be League Champions, It should be the best team over the whole season. Do you feel it good the way Birmingham have drop from recognition after being top of the league all last season? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Cant understand why there can't be an outright trophy for the champions that has to be right. Then two semi finals for a grand finale final a consolation surely that is not to hard to organise.? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

semion Posted July 5, 2014 Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 The point of it all is come the end of the season 2 clubs will get a big crowd each whole 2 other clubs will get 2 big crowds. Don't clubs out the prices up for the play-offs ? That's the way to reward fans for supporting their club all through the season.

mdmc82 Posted July 5, 2014 Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 On route to hospital with a cut eye apparently according to his Twitter. What did he do to it? Was meant to ride for bees last night but got rained off so didn't do it riding then  Hope he's okay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluPanther Posted July 5, 2014 Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 What did he do to it? Was meant to ride for bees last night but got rained off so didn't do it riding then  Hope he's okay He looks a sad figure in his facebook photo, however he should be okay in a day or two as eyes heal quite fast apparently. I presume it was probably a workshop accident, although the cause has not been confirmed yet... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruckerroo Posted July 5, 2014 Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 well done to eastie on a fine 3 points ,well done to ellis, a fine job at short notice. Â if eastbourne have the slightest hope of getting in the top 4 (unlikely but not impossible) they have to wield the axe and give jk the chop, hes been getting lucky paid 6 and 7 for ages whilst doing nothing and tonight never wanted to know at any stage 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Smith Posted July 5, 2014 Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 A very disappointing week for the Stars only collecting 3 from 11 points. Certainly hope this isn't a sign of things to come and just a small blip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panthers89 Posted July 5, 2014 Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 Rubbish already from Kenneth Bjerre, saying he has too much on at the moment, well the way he is going, he might have one less league to worry about..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Star Fever Posted July 5, 2014 Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 Would've been happy with a point which we'd have probably got but for all the falls we had - not to mention the strange exclusion for Kerr. Far too much un-luck methinks. Â Nothing gained but nothing lost either, so nothing much to get worried about. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
semion Posted July 5, 2014 Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 (edited) Lol love the pic. Â All teams go through a rough patch. I am hoping this is Lynn's. Its how quickly you kick on and get through that rough patch and get back on track ( no pun intended) I. Am sure Rob n Buster will soon have em back at it Edited July 5, 2014 by semion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star Lady Posted July 5, 2014 Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 (edited) Thankfully now in the pub after mt first meeting of the season. To answer a question Blackbird lost a fight with his neighbours cat  Firstly well done to Eastbourne,better team on the night and probably for the time ever at Arlington I saw no sign of dirty riding !!!  Crowd was abysmal, no wonder speedway is in trouble, top of the table team in town and apathy rules it seems. Track was as bumpy as the Poole match but it was the same for both teams. I was quietly impressed with Marc Owen after reading of his last outing here in his first he was desperately unlucky,laying it down very quickly to avoid what we all thought was Ellis going down. In his next he improved each lap and his third was very close and on the pace. Lambert & Porsing did all expected of 2nd strings away from home Rory was excellent, NKI suffered an uncharecteristic fall. Bjerre, I prefer not to comment. Kerr was very good.  Now Semion, I know you are desperate to know if it will tempt me back and the answer is no. £17 for less than 15 minutes entertainment and I don't class piped music as entertainment is a rip off.  Now I'm gonna enjoy my pint and a curry.  Edited to add, my daughter just said she wished we had stayed here and had more curry rather than go to Eastbourne - can't deny she's a clever girl lol Edited July 5, 2014 by Star Lady 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

semion Posted July 5, 2014 Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 I don't get it Star Lady. You shack all the way down to Sussex, hand over £17 to watch Speedway on a trick track. Yet, you can't go 2 miles up the road hand over a mere £16 to watch the same thing on one of the best tracks in the Country. It must be a female thing lol 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
