Gemini Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 (edited) As in admission price? £20 Do you not get bored of saying the same thing over and over and over... Are you bullying someone again? I used a smiley face too but it didn't seem to make much difference to the accusation. Ooooh.....forgot to say 'Just saying'.

ouch Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 The rest of the team go well there? Your worst nightmare has come true. Ford avoided us on the semi final in the hope that Swindon would beat us. Poole's last match at Kirky Lane on 3 August, 2015. Belle Vue 53, Poole 39. Holder 3 (4) North 10 (5) Watt 5 (4) Gomolski 3(4) Jannowski 11(5) including TR Starke 0(4) Newman 7 (4) Now I'm not suggesting that this is going to be easy by any means, it's not and everyone tries to move up a gear for a Final but it does show that it is stretching reality to claim all apart from Starke go well there. I think that illustrates what a big miss Dak will be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleeds Pirate Blue Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 So... Prediction time. Slightly obvious considering my name, but I'm going with Poole by 8 points on aggregate. Despite running the Aces close in our first visit to Kirky Lane, I think Poole will go down 49-41. Would be great to be treated to a meeting without the silly double points rule. If Dak rides Poole will get within 4. Poole are bit of a juggernaught at home this year, so I'll say 55-39 (2pts in a double points ride). AJ is pretty hit and miss at Poole and will struggle to beat Magic and Holder, and Watty has been flying in the last month. I just think our top end is too strong for the Aces and they'll struggle to win enough races to get heat advantages to make it close. Whatever happens, let's hope for some great racing. A bit of drama never goes a miss either. As long as no-one gets hurt! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Voice Of Reason Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 Only Coventry that charged more. The only time I've known someone charge more for a semi. I've spent a lot more than 20 quid at Spearmint Rhino's for similar! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ooooh.....forgot to say 'Just saying'. You singled someone out for how they write their posts and use against them. Please show me where I have done that?

Gemini Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 .....lisa-colette..... Singling someone out for a particular reason is a form of bullying. Just saying! Will that one do? Singling me out for how I wrote my post about 'ripples' when it was nothing to do with you and I'm sure RP could sort me out herself if she wanted to. She had enough battles the other day with several forum members about more important things than full stops and seemed to be doing okay without your help. Anyway forget it now as it's a load of tosh and nothing to do with Speedway. You'll no doubt calm down and be your usual pleasant self when Poole get their 3rd title in a row. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah okay then.I have no problem with BV winning it. The only team I want Poole to smash is Coventry and that's been done so I'm pretty happy 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Voice Of Reason Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 I certainly don't think you would have 'smashed them' had they not had injuries to two key riders. With all due respect, weren't Coventry leading The Elite League Table a darn sight longer during 2015 than Poole were? And no, I'm not a Coventry Supporter. That said, I know I'm truly hoping for Belle Vue's success next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said some Swindon fans are converting to Poole because of the Ward situation and i can understand that. Lets just hope the Poole 1-7 is the real 1-7 i.e North rides and then there can be no arguments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One key rider, you can't call Robson a key rider, they should have replaced Robson ages before they did and replaced Kylmo as soon as they discovered he was out for the season and has been said many times they had plenty of points to play with. i would be stunned if any neutrals want Poole to win. That said some Swindon fans are converting to Poole because of the Ward situation and i can understand that. Lets just hope the Poole 1-7 is the real 1-7 i.e North rides and then there can be no arguments Lets hope Zagar rides too after testing his injury in the gp.

Unfortunately we were hit with injuries to every one of our 1-7 in the last 6 weeks otherwise I honestly believe we would have finished top as even with injuries to key riders, we only missed out on top spot by 4pts (the sham on sky in June) Garrity & Kylmakorpi had been two of our strongest riders esp at home so to lose them both was a big blow. We replaced a rider scoring double figures at home with a guest that scored 3 whilst Poole found a way to replace a rider who hasn't scored with one that scored 9.

Aces51 Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 (edited) It's a worrying time for Belle Vue fans. Assuming Zagar's internal bleeding has stopped and he gives the GP a try then we have to hope that he comes through without the bleeding starting again. He was originally advised not to race again this season so the signs are not good. However, he wants to ride if he can so we shall have to wait and see. Unfortunately, unlike some guest replacements Jonsson doesn't strengthen us and probably makes us weaker for the away leg.

The Voice Of Reason Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 (edited) Unfortunately, with AJ, you never know which bloke is going to turn up. And he certainly isn't alone in that problem these days. It's all about the gate, and subsequent speed. Overtaking and team riding are (unfortunately) two attributes that are apparently sadly lacking in the vast majority of todays riders - even the top ones. I think both teams in this final are pretty evenly matched. It just depends what strokes the 'Dorset Duo' are going to pull next week.

You win nothing in April-August - not even friends!!.

King was injured near end of August Garrity was out with injuries and carrying injuries end of August/Start of Sep and then got injured again.

foreverblue Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 Coventry should have got replacements for their injured riders they had time and had plenty of points to play with, Poole would have done. On current form Jonsson strengthens Belle Vue if Zagar isn't available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
