Popular Post Gloves Posted September 30, 2015 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 What a fantastic final, two great legs ridden in great spirit by both teams. Two great sets of fans (contrary to what's written on here and this is from a brummies fan). So impressed with Cook over the two legs and definitely something for the Aces to build around going forward. Definitely a very bright future for the Aces and this years effort can be used to inspire them to the championship next year. Well done to the Pirates, you host a great meeting as I witnessed tonight. Magic is some rider and the dedication to DW 43 by the Pirates and the Aces made me very proud as a speedway fan. Two great teams who I wish all the success to for next season. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ouch Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 You can look at any number of things from the rulebook during a season. It also states 15.2.3 If there is a re-run where a disqualification is ordered, the 2-minute allowance shall be given following a 1-minute delay. Craig Cook had longer than that for heat 14 against Swindon in the league (he should have been disqualified from 15m). Swindon could then have possibly got a draw or win putting Belle Vue out the play-off's. Er, we'd have still won. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Johnston1 Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 Er, we'd have still won. Do you know how the 3 man re-run would have went. Would the riders have raced how they raced (if Craig wasn't in the race?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eide67 Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 Well that was thoroughly enjoyable. Congratulations to Poole on winning but also congratulations to Belle Vue on putting up a great fight and just missing out. I was supporting BV because of their Edinburgh connections but I have a lot of time for Poole and how they promote speedway there. So pleased that Cookie showed his true talent on the big stage (although worried it might persuade him to leave the PL) - he was the top rider over the two legs. Also thought Scott Nicholls performed magnificently in both legs. Matej Zager was brilliant in the first leg and tried his heart out tonight for little reward. For Poole Maciej was magic tonight and played a captain's role to get his team over the line. I think if the BV track had been prepared as normal they would have taken a reasonable lead to Poole and might just have won the title. I don't think there's anything in 'gogglegate'. I'm sure not many fans knew it was illegal (I certainly didn't) and I thought it was very brave of Kyle to ride without goggles rather than get excluded for time (for those that don't know, it's much more difficult to race speedway without goggles than with them). Two great meetings in front of two big crowds that came over very well on TV. Well done to all involved. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bellevueace Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 Congratulations to Poole on retaining their title and a massive well done to the Aces for getting so close. To lose out by just two points is really gutting especially when you look at the points we threw away in the first leg with falls exclusions etc, but hey thats all part and parcel of professional sport, swings and roundabouts. As for the goggle discussion i have to admit it makes it a tad harder to take but to say poole cheated is silly, if anything it was the oifficial at fault. When man utd lost out in the champions league to an offside Porto goal they didnt cheat the ref made a mistake it happens in all sport. More telling was the number of points our reserves were outscored by, i just think the occasion got to stefan and steve but the experiance will make them stronger. I just hope that this is a stepping stone for us to re-establish our club to what it used to be, weve just had a successful season, we have a new stadium, the best manager weve had in many a year so lets take the positives, wish Poole all the best and go again next year and aim for one place higher. Pity i couldnt get down tonight as im going away but overall a great final rode in the right manner with some superb racing, rather than see us as losers i look at speedway being the winner, on nights like monday and tonight its by far the best sport out there and needs to be promoted as such. Roll on March 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fromafar Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 That was nail biting, TV fans of both Teams would have been on the edge of their seats and worrying about the next heat .Great meetings and sportingly contested by both sets of riders.Great advert for the sport.Cook man of the final over both meetings but Maciej was man of the match tonight, brilliant talent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spin king Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 Congratulations to Poole. Far better meeting than I thought it would be, I thought Poole were going to romp away with the meeting, and after the first four heats it looked that way, but credit has to go to the Aces for a good fight back, and tonight I think we might just have seen Craig Cook come of age in the Elite League. For Poole I think that Janowski was the pick of the bunch tonight, and he looks as though he has a very big future in sport. Finally nice to see riders from both clubs wearing the Darcy Ward shirts, proving that the speedway family is alive and kicking. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Voice Of Reason Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 Oh, so Poole won the league. I couldn't even be bothered to sit indoors watching it if I'm honest as I'm so disenchanted with this pathetic sport - the pub, and spending some quality time with my mates, was a far better option. Poole Speedway - Elite League Champions 2015. Does it really matter (to the sycophants outside of Dorset)? For many of us - not in the slightest. No doubt Mr. Fraud, and his lapdog, will have sticky boxers. For me (and no doubt many others)? In a word...........Bore'on! Zzzzzzzzzzzz. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EC Rides Again Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 As a neutral I must say that the two meetings this week showcased the sport as well as it's been done since Peterboro-Reading in 06. Exciting times for Belle Vue with the new stadium. Just hope the track is better than the Kirky Lane dog/trick track. My lad has just started at Manchester Uni not too far away so I look forward to attending the new place early next year. Congrats to Poole, commiserations to the Aces. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobMcCaffery Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 So, where's the run-off going to be after the SCB take away Newman's points from Monday's heat 10? Coventry would be a home from home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damosuzuki Posted October 1, 2015 Report Share Posted October 1, 2015 Just finished watching this, managed to avoid the result and watched the repeat. Another Awesome meeting, Incredible effort from Belle Vue and Poole over the two legs. Terrific entertainment, massive crowds, electric atmosphere, great Sky coverage. A total pleasure to watch. The seventies all over again as they say. Just brilliant. Many will moan but this is phenomenal. And Belle Vue have a great side and a fantastic manager with a state of the art stadium next year. ALL GOOD. Love it. Not to speak out of turn, but I'd think heat 15 is a bit of a write off - I don't think Middleditch would have wanted to take any chances after this years events at Falubaz.. Buzzing! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post mikec Posted October 1, 2015 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 1, 2015 (edited) Just home from Wimborne Road, what a night, despite it ending in narrow defeat for us. Big crowd, great atmosphere & terrific racing. Congratulations to the Pirates on their victory. Great effort from the Aces, never gave up at any stage. We may not have gone home with the trophy this time, but it's clear that Belle Vue have regained a great deal of credibility & respect from their efforts over the tie, that had been lost somewhat over the club's recent barren years. We're no longer a soft touch. Hugely proud of my team tonight, glad I made the trip, we're heading in the right direction, roll on 2016!
