If Klindt rides for Poole it will clearly cost MF more money, by way of an agreed fee to the Danes!!! Presumably a similar deal exists in respect of other Danish riders - especially when fixtures are rearranged.

You've got that right, But it was against Buster's ideas to retain a Wednesday FRN. He took it for granted that Thursday would be voted in, he was flabbergasted when certain clubs voted for it. I just hope the offending promoters realise the problems it created , so rectifying it next year.... Am not too confident of that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Championship should have NO SAY in Premiership matters going forward. In 2019, if Championship clubs wish to continue on a Thursday they have 2 options:- lose all priority to rider's in the Premiership or step up a division. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet the Premiership is now actively trying to entice several Championship clubs to fortify it's rather pathetic current number. I wouldn't be surprised if fixed race nights are abandoned and the current strength of Championship clubs becomes the new top level, as Championship sides reduce their maximum averages even further. You have to go with what pays, which means going with their most successful race night/day for all clubs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is still some doubt over Poole's play off spot after today then Klindt will line up at Kings Lynn!! think the target should be finishing top skids,not merely qualifying,obvious advantage in choice of opponents but possible massive financial gain in having the second and deciding legs at wimborne rd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

semion Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 If Poole get first go in the play offs? Who will they pick ? Can’t see it being Somerset then again Belle Vue go well at Wimborne. Kings Lynn are the Team Back in form at the right time with 9 wins from thier last 10 meetings. Difficult to win anything with out a true no 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kasper just couldn’t get off the starts last night. Chased shadows. Matt could have got Klindt at Lynn tomorrow but decided not to bother, as this meeting is a dead rubber for Poole and it would probably have cost a fee to his Danish club. We are not going to finish top and are in the playoffs so the result is not important to us. It is for Kings Lynn who need the points to finish top. I think the result will be around 50-40. Klindt will be missed as he is on very good form and his gating is the best in the league, bar perhaps Doyle. It was so good last night the ref called it back and he got a warning when in truth it was just a perfect start. Most important tomorrow is for the Poole guys to play around with set ups in case we go there in the playoffs.

Can’t see it being Somerset then again Belle Vue go well at Wimborne. Kings Lynn are the Team Back in form at the right time with 9 wins from thier last 10 meetings. Difficult to win anything with out a true no 1 I cant see Poole having first choice. Both Lynn and Somerset have matches in hand, I will be most surprise if both don't finish ahead of Poole. For them to be in with a chance their match at Lynn tomorrow is a must win, else they will be 3 points behind with just Wolves to play at home. Even if they win at Lynn it still wouldn't guarantee 1st place , so no doubt Matt Ford has already resigned himself to the selection of others.... The ball is firmly in Kings Lynn court now, especially with matches in hand and the riders all peaking at the right time. After so many years, It will be only fitting if we can finish top of the pile and have that first choice. Me, Assuming the other teams are BV and Somerset, my thinking would be to leave Poole alone. Have never liked the Dorset track, it makes it too much of a lottery. From my experience the bad tracks outnumbers the good many times. The other teams in the Play-off all have decent tracks that can be raced on. The NSS is the pinnacle of track design, always giving both teams a chance, so for that reason, my choice would be Belle Vue... Also, from my memory, Somerset go reasonably well at Poole and could quite possibly beat them, Giving us a final of 2 teams that have never won the top league before. This could be a momentous finale of a troubled season for our sport. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Connor Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 I’d choose Belle Vue. Best speedway track in the country over poles motor cross track. Somerset all have good Poole experience and seem to have their number. Somerset vs kings lynn would be an amazing final! Belle Vue would be tough too though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
