Pay the rider's a guarantee set of money to throw the meeting. This late in the season it's all about gamesmanship, tactics, and Poole certainly don't want Somerset out of all the other Play-Off teams. 6 hours ago, Daniel Smith said: If I was Middleditch or Ford I be telling my rider's to be well beaten, 60-30ish, in the hope that would give the King's Lynn management the confidence to pick them in the Play-Offs.

Can you imagine the outrage on here, if a Poole fan even suggested it, let alone if it actually happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LisaColette Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 We are pretty much in the play offs, it's not a must win meeting so not vital for Nic to be at Lynn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely if your full team is available thats what it should be .We are always moaning about rider shortage and in this case not necessary 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "big loss" isn't as important as the money, i'm guessing then ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Shovlar Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 Thing is the result really is not that important for us. We are in the playoffs and won’t finish top so its a practice session to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Straight from the horses mouth" yesterday from Skidder. If Ford thought a play off place was at risk, then Klindt was going to ride for your lot at Lynn tonight. So it was up to Ford if Klindt rides at Lynn tonight, and he chose no. Not good for the fans really, or the team, but maybe Ford was "compensated" in some way Anyway it is what it is. Main thing is that all riders are safe, and with no injuries 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much would his Danish club want? What if it Polish club standard of money? No thanks. He didn't even do that well on BH Mon anyway! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compensation,that's what Skidder said isn't it.King's Lynn would be skint now with the amount of times our Danes were meant to be riding in Denmark.
