Oh dear, the day the Freddie/ Stevebrum bromance died :P

 

All the best

Rob

Such is life, often you're heroes let you down.

You needed more than one rider using better equipment to get near the play offs. He was the only rider to blame

Like last year if we had a number one performing as they should we wouldn't be cast adrift IMHO.

You can take an engine on a plane and back again riders do it all the time. He blew his Wolves engine last week so he will be bringing one from Sweden.

 

So Horton wants you to believe.

 

Fred will do just fine, but I highly doubt he will be bringing his 'best engine' from Sweden with a Swedish playoff final the following night.

 

Just a bit of propaganda in the press release is all.

 

He's a professional rider who will ensure he is competitive.

Someone like Lindgren should have a few engines in Sweden that will all be pretty much the same to be honest. He will still use his bikes here obviously.

Plus he'll want to do his best so he gets offered a Bees team place for 2016 - its what every rider dreams of isn't it?! :D

On his average I wouldn't complain at all!

 

A team of

Jonsson

Garrity

Kylmakorpi

Lindgren

Harris

 

Looks very tasty to me. However I'm more concerned about 2017......

so Mick rings four or five riders offering silly money which was refused. I reckon the gate receipts for the semi would probably cover the offer, 500 extra fans @£20 = £10k

 

as for freddie, maybe he has been offered a guarantee and that should the bees get to the final he would also be used at the same rate, who wouldn't make sure they are prepared well so as to earn some ££££

Stevebrum is calling Lindgren for everything for guesting for Bees and ensuring he has his best equipment available. Yet if the situation was reversed and it was (and you'll all have to do a bit of suspending of your disbelief here) Wolves in the play offs and Chris Harris was deputising for them, he'd expect nothing more than 100%. And he knows he'd get 100% from Bomber too.

 

 

You don't get my point clearly. It's nothing to do with giving 100% or guesting , which I assume all riders intend to do.

It was about bringing equipment not usually used for your parent club - which is superior I would imagine.

Anyway as I have yet to read Freddie's take on it I will take it with a pinch of salt.

You do realise he blew an engine last week so he's has to bring one over from Sweden? Probably couldn't take the guest booking otherwise and of course Havelock puts a positive spin on it, who wouldn't? Id says he'd do exactly the same if Wolves still had meetings left.

It wasn't just about equipment.

 

his best A game is for Wolves and himself. No one else.

I think you're bothered that he might show the sort of form for Coventry, that he hasn't shown for Wolves on many occasions this season.

Maybe.

And there were Bees fans saying he was a poor guest.

 

You forgot to take your morning dose of medication didn't you?

Still a sycophant and proud. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

The propaganda machine is supposed to unnerve the opposition Steve, it worked a little too well.

 

Well, on you it did :D;)

I won't apologise that some of us Wolves fans are a little tetchy after the season we have just had.:wink: Edited by stevebrum

To be fair to my buddy Stevebrum, I'd be annoyed if a Poole legend signed for a team in the playoffs at the end of the season, too, particularly if there was a suggestion that he was bringing superior equipment to that which he'd used in the regular season.

However, now he's had time to sleep on it, I'm sure Steve will admit, that for Freddie, getting a chance to ride for one of the "big two" is a chance he can't turn down. It's been well documented that Freddie has always wanted to ride for Poole, but sadly he's never had the chance, so going to Coventry, even for a short while, is the next best thing.....

I get it. He is just guesting. Nothing more to see.

Nice try with the last paragraph, the first was so promising. :t:
