ray c Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 Why would the council close it down? They are supportive of speedway in the town. And they own the stadium. Poole council can't keep toilets open in the town so I don't think they worry to much about shutting the stadium for housing if the situation arise !!!

colin wood Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 It wouldn't cost that much to rip up the track on the bends and relay it.The track is a nice size and shape but way too bumpy and dangerous to ride.Come on Matt sort it out.

Skidder1 Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 (edited) No body is talking about building a new stadium. Poole Council's house building plans - across the whole of Poole - recommend a reduced number of 430 homes (from the original 550) to be located on land that overlaps onto the lorry/car park of the stadium. Â As the stadium site is designated for leisure use and the Council and Poole Tourism are very firmly supportive of Speedway continuing (MF did a presentation to them all - yes all - last season), they have now involved Stadia UK as the current stadium leaseholder in producing plans to 'upgrade' the existing stadium facility for the continuation of 2 sports - Greyhound and Speedway racing!! Â From a fans perspective such an upgrade would see the old main grandstand pulled down and replaced with something more modern - and likely modular. Replacement offices and bars underneath the grandstand and on the 3rd/4th bend should also be included together with improved covered terracing. This may mean a slight change to the track - both in size and position?! Â However there are currently no plans in the public arena(sic) so further comment is pure speculation. However this is being driven by the Council so expect the pressure to be kept on and MF to be kept fully informed. Â Matt and the Council are keen for there to be no interruption of either sport if possible so expect a 'phased' approach.

Sidney the robin Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 Well lets take stock after last night's meeting. Â Firstly it is confirmed that Hans has NOT suffered a neck fracture as first feared. GREAT NEWS. He will give his Swedish meeting a miss tonite but intends to race on Friday in Denmark!! Â To be beaten fairly and squarely by 4 points, by (imo) the best team in the league, is no disgrace when missing one heat leader and only having 5 functioning riders, although I questioned the balance and riding order of the team when it was announced last night along with some of the r/r selections??!! Â Well done Belle Vue. Â Klindt is clearly unlikely to be fully fit for the foreseeable future but his 6.21 average after last night doesn't leave too many decent options!!!? The Poole Aussie boys were clearly out to show Mark Lemon the error of his Team Australia selections!! :-) Starkey scoring 9 points and having the race of the night, more than did his job, along with young Shanes - we've just been spoilt having Nicolai at reserve!! Â KK returns for the Kings Lynn meeting on 12th July - but will there be another change by then - or later?? Â Whatever the state of the track - and it was quite poor last night - I doubt that there will be any major work carried out on it until the Stadium developments/changes/improvements are made clear by Stadia UK - especially if any changes involve a 're-positioning' of the track and/or the stadium?! Â Having watched the meeting live and then the TV version this morning I was pleased with the BT approach but totally annoyed by Pearson's commentary as well as his continued banging on about Tai in his Matchday programme column. No bias there is there??!!!!! Â I'm sure MF will have got all the reports on last night from his 'team' as he was unable to witness it first hand due to a prior commitment!! Â Onwards and upwards. (ps. At least I gather from 'sources' that we could already have next season's main sponsors sorted!! ;-) ) Some on here said Starke was average like you said he mixed it took risks rode well and Shanes did his job Holder and Kurtz Poole have a great foundation for the future if there is one.?

chris4gillian Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 So you basically repeat the report I made last night. You really do come across as a condescending. A very bad trait. Such a shame the Poole forum was closed but from what I have been told from others you were one of the reasons Matt Ford closed it. Â At least I go to the stadium every week and follow the team away. You nearly fell off your seat.......from the comfort of your living room sofa. Are you ever at Wimborne Road? Once or twice a season? Â True poole fan my arse. Gavins lacky more like.Lol! Â My assessment is completely different to yours. If you can't see that then there really is no hope for you. Â I haven't posted on the Poole Forum regularly for well over a year so that's another crock of crap from you!! And you have absolutely NO IDEA how many times I've been to Poole this season, last season or for the last 35 odd years I've been supporting them. Â Oh and not all of us can skive off work like you can at a drop of a hat to have a jolly watching the Pirates, however I have been to most tracks over the years, some quite frequently. Â You get told time and time again you're full of bull and this post is no exception. Â Every club has 'one' and you're most definitely ours...with Starman egging you on which is embarrassing to say the least. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like we have infighting and mutiny aboard the Pirates ship Nah. Chris4gillian is no Poole fan. Just some couch potato from the other side of Southampton seeking glory. Seen a few pics of the bloke online. Never seen him at Poole. He said he stands on the first or second bend so I will look out for him, though more chance of seeing Lord Lucan riding Shergar into the pits.
