Please please please find me the post where i have slagged Kurtz off???

Ive said he has more potential than most riders

Ive said his form means he should dominate the Aussie champs

The only thing he needs to curb is the odd bad ride ....like he keeps doing in Aus and had a habit of doing last season, which many Poole fans have agreed with me on.

Ive also said on paper he is one of the weakest number ones in the league but he has the most potential.

If you take that as 'slagging off' then you are very easily bruised.

I dont wish to bring everyone down a peg or two..............just the 3 or 4 Poole fans on here .....the majority are fine

In that very post I quoted you in...

Looks like Shanes could be Belle Vue bound.

If i was him i would sign for Belle Vue, why wait and see what might happen and then be left without a place if Poole go a different route?

Shanes and Bewley at reserve would be a sight to behold at the NSS

Expand  

Bewley,Shanes and Zach W all to make strides this year i believe Shanes could average 4.80 to 5 this year how he is not in the Poole team already is beyond me also is Sundstrom any better than Hans NO he is not.

I reckon he's been eating too much ice cream & has got brain freeze. My monies' on Swindon to finish 1st or 2nd in the league. Injury permitting of course as that can be a big leveller in any season.

Would not mind a little wager Robin that the Robins are unbeaten at home they look mighty strong there and if Davey can chip in with 2 happy days Ellis is the key for me a big year for him.

I dont suppose the irony is lost on anyone that a Poole fan has said that speedway is corrupt

Expand  

The whole Sport is. 

Rob Godfrey gets let off when clearly he was at fault for Jack Holder. I wonder why he gets to walk free.

Every GP rider a 9.00 who didn't ride here in 2017 except for Vaculik. Don't care if Martin has never ridden here before fact is the ruling is EVERY GP RIDER a 9.00

If I'm being completely honest because I'm not a 2 faced person we have gotten away with Szczepaniak's average seeing as this average was attained years ago and he is a completely different rider now.

You have a bunch of unrealistic average assessments in the Championship Joel Andersson for example who is clearly much better than the assessment. 

The whole thing is corrupt tbh

And Chris Holder!!!!

Expand  

Had a average from 2017. 

Ruling was for riders who didn't ride in the UK last year.

If Chris didn't do Britain in 2017 then yes a 9.00 would be fair because that is the ruling but luckily he rode for KL for a while

Poole do look good on paper, but matches are not won on paper, also I recon that poole are taking a gamble on the 2 Poles reproducing the sort of scores they achieve on the big wide fast Polish tracks. Mat has to give them a track they can at least have confidence in. Time will tell.

I apologise if I have missed it earlier in this thread but any news on how Starman is?

Expand  

Starman's mum said on facebook that he was allowed home for 3 days at the beginning of the week to see how he was, but not heard any more (He wasn't at the Fans quiz night on Wednesday - probably the first one he's ever missed!!)

Woryna will have identical kit to his Polish equipment!!

Expand  

Maybe he can also supply a couple of similar missiles (engines) to help out Matsz Spanz as well.

The fact they will be both be team mates in UK & POL and believe both staying with Matt Ford, one would think they will work closely together, if as I think I read that Middlos place may be used to keep their bikes etc ??

Ye but not a quite as fast !!!

 Hey don’t need to be. The bikes that ride  Polish tracks would be set up completely differently to what setups are required in the UK. If he rode his Polish bikes at Monmore he probably wouldn’t get around the first bend.

Spoke to Mike earlier in the week and he was at home, think it's a little daunting for him.

As I have a heavy cold not visited him , as soon as I make contact again I will post something.
