I've pointed out that it was the SCB & BSPA that covered for their original incompetence in failing to frame the rules correctly by breaking them and encouraging both teams and the referee to do so. Dale Allitt has stated publicly that it was KL's proposal to Poole which was then ratified by the SCB and BSPA MC to avoid the sport being further vilified by allowing Ellis to guest for both clubs in the final. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've said many times that it should not of been allowed. Morris did not fit, i don't blame Poole or Lynn.. It don't matter who pushed what, The fault lies higher up the ladder. Somerset were 4 riders down in the cup leg 2 and the couldn't use Wright at Lynn because he was 0.05 over.. Either everyone gets the +5% away or no one does.It's not hard to understand.How many fans have moaned about Somerset winning the cup, I doubt if any have. Why....No special treatment was allowed !

I have said several times that if Poole had used RR or an eligible guest then they would have deserved their win. Instead, they chose to cheat and use an ineligible guest. You don’t see me calling you names either or being personal! What I can’t stand is cheating - and it would be same if Swindon had cheated too! Rubbish, had we not used an elilgble guest it would have not been sanctioned, so get off your high horse and just accept it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had Poole used an eligible guest it wouldn't need to be sanctioned.... because....well... it would have been eligible anyway. They had to get permission to use an otherwise ineligible guest. And god knows why that permission was granted. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let us be clear. There is and never has been any rule anywhere in the rulebook that makes Nick Morris an eligible guest in the second leg. We can debate whether or not it was appropriate for the SCB to sanction his use but it certainly wasn't within the rules as laid down in the rulebook. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavan Posted October 26, 2018 Report Share Posted October 26, 2018 Poole fans missing the point but nothing new there. Because Kings Lynn agreed to it (more fool them) doesnt make it right that the powers that be approved it. Whats more farcical...................having a rider ride for both teams or to have an illegal rider? Both make a mockery of our once great sport. And the three teams that top the table......Kings Lynn, Peterborough and Mildenhall .....all fail to win their leagues. Poole won the league because they fielded the worst 1-7 for the first few months..............nice to be rewarded for failure. Peterborough and Mildenhall were decimated by injuries, similar to Kings Lynn, Somerset and Belle Vue............Poole would have easily lost the semis to a full strength Somerset but you can only beat whats in front of you so Poole were lucky to face a 5 man team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buttons Posted October 26, 2018 Report Share Posted October 26, 2018 Why doesn't everyone leave the Poole fans to wallow in their own glory, they will always think it is all fair and above board whatever they do. Why don't other posters stop biting at their comments and ignore them and just leave them to talk among themselves, they only do it to get a reaction on all sites not just their own Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
