Starman2006 Posted October 2, 2018 Report Share Posted October 2, 2018 4 minutes ago, Cliffeboy said: First sorry for getting the third and fourth mixed up, it is irrelevant tho. I was remarking in the luck last night, not anything to do with the season as a whole. The form you refer to is valid as the Champions should be the best team over the whole season, not the result of a little four match shoot out at the end. Poole were indeed rock bottom at one point and improved their team enough to finish third, not top. If you enjoy the same sort of fortune against KL that you clearly enjoyed against us you will be Champions apparently. As a sports fan does that not seem like a hollow victory?. I would like to point out again this is not a dig at Poole just this bizarre way of crowning our Champions. It has been suggested that the play offs are “good tv”, so if BT gong league action next season, why not gong the play offs as well so who ever finishes top of the pile at the end of the season are the true Champs. Any team would have struggled with five riders in any match, to run the third best team in the league away from home was a fantastic effort by the lads. Sounds like a touch of sour grapes to me. And before you holla and scream at me, i already said and sent my comiserations to Gary and have also said i really hope you win the K O Cup, you deserve something out of this season. If you read my earlier post Gary took the defeat like the man he is and we had a good chat. Him along with Neil and Rosco i have a lot of time for. 3 very good team managers.

Holder has been quite poor at Poole this year. Yes your post is full of ifs, buts and maybe’s. And so of Somerset made the final you would want Kings Lynn to win because if Somerset won it, by your own admission, it would be a travesty. Be honest. You were beaten by a better team over the two legs. You lost Brady because of his own reckless riding which also took out Jack and was the match winner for you. Poole won by 2 points over 30 heats, almost half of them against 4 Rebels & a useless guest. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to next Monday and hoping for a healthy lead from the boys for the second leg. Up the Pirates! Yes good luck next week, you have managed to miss the point of the whole post. For what it is worth it would mean nothing to me if we had won the playoffs, because I know we have not been the best team over the season, can you not see that. Do I think we were beaten by a better team over two legs, no is the honest answer because you didn’t ride against a full team. However you can only race against who is up against you. You say my post is full of ifs and buts yet you say Brady “probably “ would have scored more points than Jack, ok , how do you know ? Remember Jack was past Brady in heat 4 and it was Brady’s error that bought them both down. Hasn’t Brady’s form been a bit off lately whilst Jack has been scoring well in Poland. As you say ifs and buts on both sides, but it remains that whatever happens next week we were the second best team and you were the third this season. I enjoy my Speedway like we all do and I will watch next week hoping for a KL win , nothing st all to do with yesterday’s result but all about the correct team being crowned Champions. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That;s the way the cookie crumbles. Last year Swindon took on Wolves in the final, who were without Thorsell and Freddie. And so it goes on........

The correct team being the mighty Poole in my book. We deserve it with our run. Poole finished 24 points ahead of Coventry in 2010 but Coventry won it. That’s life. The playoff are what it’s all about. Long may they reign. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickRushbrook Posted October 2, 2018 Report Share Posted October 2, 2018 Poole have absolutely no chance in the final. Only a miracle and a heroic effort of Gladiator proportions will see them land the title this season. Hand Lynn the title now!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again you cannot write a post with some sort of dig. You clearly do have sour grapes syndrome i would suggest you take your defeat gracefully like your manager did. And yes you dont need to explain the workings of the K O Cup, honest. Now as Jack is part of your top 3 you will get a guest, and i suggest you consentrate on that instead of sulking, you have to take the lows along with the highs. Like i said, i hope you win it. You deserve something out of the season. Leave it at that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavan Posted October 2, 2018 Report Share Posted October 2, 2018 Steve Shovlar in missing the point shocker yet again No humility nothing at all what a poor excuse of a supporter Have you not noticed that you are pretty much the only person on here who hasn’t said Poole had some luck. Poole got very lucky last night , true fans and people like you who don’t troll for a reaction realise this and have responded accordingly You are the sole reason that Poole get the stick on here , even the real Poole fans are sick of your constant tripe. If Poole lose you will get absolutely mocked and unfortunately that spills over to the true Poole and speedway fans who don’t deserve that on here. Very sad that as a grown man you feel the need to have differing opinions and post to inflame (trolling) then everyone else. Brady missing does not make you weaker that’s your usual party line. Poole missing riders = weaker ....opposition missing riders = stronger. You even said Somerset would be stronger with Howarth in for BWD and r/r for Summers You get things wrong all the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in awe of Harris last ditch pass last night. Read my post again. I said it was an accident and I wasn’t have a dig but Harris throws his bike to stop it from crashing into him as he goes down. Unfortunately for Doyle it goes straight in his path and causes him to crash. your'e ot quite getting this are you ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
