Poole V Somerset Ela & Somerset V Poole 14/4/17 Good Friday.


Recommended Posts

Intrigued to know aswell if Danny King has pulled out himself or have Poole pulled another fast one and got Nick Morris lined up at the last minute instead - after declaring their line up to Somerset?

Well Danny had a big crash in his 3rd ride at Sheffield which took him a while to get up from, he went out in his 4th ride but pulled up mid race. No surprise he isn't riding today.

he is in Poland. Probably nothing in place to get him here for such an early start.

He knew yesterday it seems ....

There should be a governance in place that sets a time frame for allowed facilities in the event of fixture clashes. For example. 24 hours. I'm guessing once the facility is granted it makes no odds whether the original fixture that had priority is called off. It's common sense to put one in place

 

If there was one kk would be on a jet plane right about now!

Which includes the early meeting. Some people are bottling out suggesting a facilty should still be granted for the first meeting at poole. Not having it!

 

Patrick Hougaard is in the air right now. He's racing the same fixture. I'm not buying that a 10pm flight out of Bydgoczc or where ever it may be is full at that time of night. Whatever flight he would have got, I'll bet my bottom dollar there are seats!

If it was the other way round, I'm sure he'd be there!!

Where is it confirmed that it's postponed tomorrow? If that is the case then how can they have a facility for a rider whos meeting was postponed in advance?

Do you honestly think I made it up that the meeting has been postponed and re-arranged for Thursday 20th April.

Have a look here and note the times of the articles.

Weather is good this morning for the first ever league encounter between these two clubs. Should be a good crowd down at the stadium this morning.

 

Poole to win and take the three points is my prediction. Shame that we are not full strength and we will miss KK today, especially tonight in the second meeting though Morris will do his best I am sure. Would have preferred a number one to cover but none available today. We will just have to make do and hope.

 

Lets also hope for 30 heats of good racing and no nasty crashes.

Will you have stopped spinning by 11am - you are going to be awfully dizzy :lol:

I await the Poole and the BSPA/SCB statements on the KK riding or not today in Britain situation with interest.

Imo KK should atleast be riding in the afternoon if he's known from midday yesterday there's plenty of time to arrange a flight and get bak to the UK.

 

Would rather KK than Nick Morris tbh Nick isn't that good around poole normally lucky to get 4 or 5pts and ain't much better at the OTA.

I should think all Poole fans would want KK over Morris today.

 

But if KK was suddenly announced to ride you can bet there would be a few moaning at his inclusion because we are letting down a booked guest, and crying foul because he wasn't in the declared team for these fixtures.

 

Anyway its all pointless as he is not here until Sunday at Swindon.

It looks like if we beat Poole it'll be even better after Starman's prediction. Looking forward to both legs!

 

Wouldn't take much notice of Starman, his heads always in the clouds. ;):D

I have to go with the majority here.

 

There should be NO facility for KK.

 

No excuses. 24 hours to get to Poole???? He could have drive to Poole in that time

Another alias

Nope. You are 100% wrong with that!

It's really cool that you've:

 

A: managed to figure out who Gavan is.

B: go after him so soon

C: after 20 posts and 2 weeks membership.

D: know that he's an Ipswich fan.

 

What you do us not clever. It's not smart, and it pisses a lot of people off.

Gavan is the one that annoys people. Probably why he is always getting banned.

So what should happen today regards KK. in my opinion Poole are entitled to a facility in the home match this morning( Due to KK being in Poland and it being 11am start in Dorset !). However tonight is a different matter and if KK is not at Somerset riding then Poole can either use the non- facility option OR apply to the BSPA for a withholding his services facility- where they would be allowed a facility with a 28 day UK ban for KK.

There is a facility been granted for both matches, unfortunately KK's meeting was postponed nobodys fault, late booked flights cost fortunes why should Poole foot the bill just because of the weather.

 

Because KK is a POOLE rider and the fans deserve to see said rider whenever possible.

 

I won't go into the possible "strengthens Poole arguement" :wink:
