Somerset 2017


Recommended Posts

Very surprised Gavan hasn't been on here going on about how Tungate 'struggled' in the Aussie Champs, finishing 8th out of 16!!

 

Shocking performance for a Premiership Number 1 who also once rode for Poole - but not a word from Gav!!? How very strange he is. ;-)

Didn't Tungate get a nasty knock to his elbow in the first round, could have something to do with his total score

.

Get on with ya. Gavan cannot debate, he clearly hasn't got the brains to debate. He can try and debate with none Poole fans. If we dont agree with him he doesn't like it and makes it known..

Pan, Kettle !!

Tungates current form in oz must be a concern

Fair enough at least you guys can actually answer without resorting to a slanging match.

 

On the Poole thread ive remarked how the defending champion is having a poor time of things and basically been shouted down that he isnt but thats the Poole fans for you, your not allowed an opinion lol

 

When was that? He scored 10 in round one and has been off the pace the next 2 rounds. What meeting you looking at?

looking for sympathy? From who and for what? I asked about Tungates form and had perfectly reasonable answers. On the Poole thread 3 of their fans spoil for an argument.

No idea what you mean about sympathy!!!

oops!! If your going to post at least get your facts straight!! I asked on here about Tungates form but I got proper answers unlike from some Poole fans.

So next time you post have a little look back over the thread.

Oh and i wouldn't expect Tungate to finish above Kurtz. He didn't last year and didn't this year

I think you are a little bit obsessed with Gavan! He obviously gets to you ;)

 

In terms of the whole Aussie champs thing, I've never really taken it too seriously as an indicator of UK form a few weeks later. Riders could be testing equipment etc and their performances over a three/four round series very rarely reflect a long UK season although in this instance Sam Masters was always a likely winner.

Really when it now gets you a slot in the Aussie GP if you win it?.

I meant after the series was complete!!

You know that's when the final positions are completed.

BTW I haven't said anything about expecting Tungate to finish above, below or equal to Kurtz - merely that he's a Premiership Number 1.

Hey guys, instead of girning on about stupid stuff, why not use this thread to discuss the coming season, highlighting the Rebels being in the top grade of UK speedway and getting behind Josh, Rohan, Jake and the rest of your squad?

By referring to "your squad" it seems like you have targeted your comment at Somerset fans. Without looking back at the thread itself, which I read as it gets updated, I have to say that I think you are really referring to the non-Somerset fans.

To be perfectly honest with you, if other Somerset fans are anything like me, I feel that we have lost our "home" and moved into a "house" with us moving up a tier. I don't particularly like this board with all its bickering and in-fighting. It feels like most fans are supportive of their teams and dismissive of the rest than on the board we were in. That's why I'm now more of an observer than a contributor although I wasn't a big poster in any case. Over the years I've seen forum members go from a large crowd of friendly and enthusiastic fans in the CL days to a few die-hards now. Shame really. I'll still be there this coming season though and live in hope that I'm suitably excited. :neutral:

Anyone else noticed that we have Kings Lynn down for two weeks on the trot potentially at home? I'm assuming the home fixtures against Coventry is also a mistake as two of the later dates should say provisional, based on the outcome of today's doings at Coventry.

 

Looks like we've managed to do quite a few home/away ties against the same club within a few days. It's a shame they don't bring back the bonus point over 2 legs aswell as the new points scoring so there is an aggregate score to race for aswell.

Re: Coventry, TBCs for the away fixtures (fair enough) but x3 home fixtures! What's going on?

We're missing an away meeting at Swindon. Check the dates and if one of them is a Thursday it might be the day we're actually at Swindon.

Just been watching the second disc of the Rebels 2016 season. Getting more and more impressed with Jake Allen with every meeting. It's great watching the highlights but it don't beat being there, something I miss immensely. Apart from Rye House, next nearest is Swindon followed by Leicester both 90 minute runs on a good day😔.
