Steve Shovlar Posted April 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 People critisizing KK and Poole for him not riding are completely wrong. I have found out that once a fascility has been granted it cannot be altered, as the bspa make sure the rider offered the guest spot is honored. Poole could not bring in KK once a fascility had been granted. Last year Nick Morris discovered his meeting had been called off and contacted Somerset to say he could make it to Redcar in time. Garry May contacted the bspa who said no. He musthonor the guest booking. So there you go. Nothing to see here. Move along please. At Somerset and the weather is dry. At the moment. More Poole fans here than Somerset. Hundreds have made the trip. Somerset favourites tonight but hoping for a point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well lets see how KK goes at Swindon, you might have wished he was riding in Poland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebrum Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 The powers that be don't seem to have a problem with it, so Ford and Middledich not doing anything wrong plenty wrong with it tho. Not sure if you know but Poole have a fascility in place for KK. Nothing to see here. Please move along. Or is it impossible for the usual Poole haters who have to argue about anything Poole related? Any other club there would not even be a mention of something like this. Poole are so weaker with no KK. Would have gone with r/r myself. You should have gone with RR as you shouldn't have a guest for a rider who isn't riding in Poland. As previously mentioned can you please quote the rule regards facility being in place if a rider can actually make a meeting that's called off please, otherwise it doesn't exist. Garrity is a stronger guest than the 3 pointer you should be using. More wrong doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 (edited) Not b/s at all. SCB have approved the facility and Somerset have no objection either. Its the same SCB referee this evening as this morning - Craig Ackroyd - so we'll see. Edited April 14, 2017 by Skidder1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure of the time scale but wasn't King injured after KK's meeting was called off. Therefore no rider would have had his guest booking unhonoured.

SteveLyric2 Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 He prob meant heat 14, where Brady went from last to first. Brady's last to first ride in heat 14 was worth the admission money alone - particularly significant that it was also in a faster time than the 2 preceding heats and understandably compared to a #DW43 move at its very best!!

So we have had loads of posts criticising everybody from KK, Poole the BSPA and the SCB and then suddenly 20 hours after the row started someone has said it`s fine that someone who is in a declared 1 to 7 and is perfectly fit to ride is not allowed to ride. something smells mighty fishy here !!!!!!

Triple.H. Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 What's a fascility ? I would've the most ardent of the Poole Brown Nose boys would've known it's a facility Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They slate the BSPA and SCB all the time but when it suits "because they said so" it's perfectly acceptable a reason as to why! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Beevers Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 I like Gavan and agree it's just mainly some Poole fans who find him annoying because he tells a few 'home truths' against their beloved team. When I have seen your posts, I usually find them very fair and intellectual. Unfortunately in my opinion you are off the mark here and maybe here shows dislike for Poole and their posters and I can completely see why, when a couple of them post arrogant post after arrogant post. But let's not be deluded here. Gavan is no different with his constant mocking and clearly lacks knowledge of the sport when I have had a debate with him and he has to use swear words every time he his list for words. Him,Starman and a few others need to learn posting etiquette in my opinion. I have nothing against him, but he is the poster who I have reported the most since I joined this forum over a year ago.

Poole could not bring in KK once a fascility had been granted. Really? I seem to recall King's Lynn leaving Stuart Robson and Stefan Nielsen well and truly in the sh*t last year cancelling their guest bookings when they had already take time off work/were en route.

Steve Shovlar Posted April 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 (edited) That's good then as they never seemed to travel much to the away meetings at BrandonPossibly because Somerset is far superior to that old Brandon track. Having said that the oak tree arena tonight is a complete dust bowl with billowing clouds of the stuff coming up. Rain due at around 9 and no rush to push on either.

Steve Shovlar Posted April 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 Compared to Poole this morning?Worse. Not so much excuse as its a cool overcast evening. Glad I am not standing on the bends or back straight. If they left it dry because of a threat of rain why are they not pushing on? Bowser now out on track.

Pirate Nick Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 If you quote the rule I will believe you- otherwise that is complete bull $hit It was a couple of years ago. Somerset booked a guest for Morris at Redcar. Swindon was called off and Morris contacted the promotion to say he could ride. Promotion contacted BSPA and were told no as a guest had been booked. I don't know if that's a rule or was just a whim on the night by whoever was on the other end of the phone, but it definitely happened. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
