Pirates Of Poole Posted July 15, 2017 Report Share Posted July 15, 2017 Pretty sure we will have someone a bit better replacing KK. I think so too, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavan Posted July 15, 2017 Report Share Posted July 15, 2017 Lahti is an ok signing but who else was there? Â Im awaiting Starman to welcome him to the club...............something along the lines of ' always wanted to ride for Poole'.......'if he came back to the UK it would only be for Poole'..............'Matt Ford has had him in mind for years'...............'will improve his average at Poole' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hyabb17 Posted July 15, 2017 Report Share Posted July 15, 2017 I can see the queue of top name riders from here......wait, I'm mistaken. No rider wants to do the Uk, too much hassle for not much reward. Need a complete set up which costs money! Â Pretty sure we will have someone a bit better replacing KK.

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted July 15, 2017 Report Share Posted July 15, 2017 Lahti has improved since his Eastbourne days and should be a decent replacement for Nicolai.and therefore shouldve been reassessed in line with his more recent performances abroad....

SPEEDY69 Posted July 15, 2017 Report Share Posted July 15, 2017 Lahti is a top rider overseas at the moment. This makes Poole way stronger in my view, just in time for the business end of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluenose Posted July 15, 2017 Report Share Posted July 15, 2017 Just watched Klindt win his first race in the European Championship ,very fast does not look injured, nothing wrong with the bloke,he was having a laugh at British Speedway,Should not be let back in Britain. Â I am not a Poole supporter but I think the Premiership should make the rule next season that there be at least 3 Brits in every team to weed out the unworthy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Game On Posted July 15, 2017 Report Share Posted July 15, 2017 Â No thanks would rather have a team consisting of Australians, Polish and 1 Brit possible 2 Brits depending on the rider. Â And yes I am British I just don't like your suggestion with all due respect In other words riders who don't care about British speedway. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moomin man 76 Posted July 15, 2017 Report Share Posted July 15, 2017 I fail to see how signing Timo Lahti on his current average is anything other than a good signing for Poole. He's on a false 'lowish' average and his scores for both Rospiggarna and Daugavpils are more than credible. His scores will also be far more consistent that Klindt's, which vary from very high to very low with little in between depending on whether he's got his gating shoes on.

tellboy Posted July 15, 2017 Report Share Posted July 15, 2017 I thought he was out injured Klindt said it would be better for him to try and recover properly rather than risk further damage,this is according to Ford so who knows. Then a couple of days later he's riding properly again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Poole can do what they want with him.All i was saying was did Klindt say that or did Ford just say that to make himself look more inoccent than ruthless person we are led to believe he is.But if Klindt did say that and he ended up riding tonight he's pulled a fast one on Ford.

The only reason he hasn't sorted his knee problem out is because he qualified for the European Championship. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, no issues. Klindt I'm sure was being forced into making decisions he probably didn't want to. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klindt is injured, quite seriously. Certainly seriously enough to not be riding. He needs an operation but seems in denial at the moment. All his clubs have dropped him because of his injury and I believe he wanted to give it a go this evening as he was proud of himself, quite rightly, to have qualified. Â Hopefully he will now have his op and start to get back his fitness and confidence for 2018. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
