Not much chance of him being at Poole - not if his main sponsor has anything to do with it!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 Unfortunately it says a lot about so-called Poole fans when it takes the Swindon manager to publicly back Jack Holder and for people to get off his back so early in the season!

cityrebel Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 The track is the most important part of the business, but the majority of the promoters just don't get it. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
semion Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 Reminds me of a Bank Hoilday at Rye House. How on earth does any promotion think that is acceptable ? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dornier Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 3 hours ago, lastword said: Just got back from the National League meeting at Belle Vue. 1 p.m. start. Hottest day of the year in Manchester by a mile, but the water browser was out about every three heats (for just a few laps) and the meeting was completed in one hour fifty minutes. No dust at all! It can be done. I went to Scunthorpe and they had the track well watered and they watered again during grading time. there was no dust. There was some dust in the car park though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddy The Rebel Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 Pretty awful meeting gate and go hardly any water put on later in the meeting and track deteriated massively could hardly see any racing the promotion need to seroiusly look at getting better prepared 4 day meeting or dont have them just 730 starts. Said from the get go swindon would be the stronger team full of gaters and we only have klindt who can,in all honesty our team should get to play offs but its a team that strikes me done on the cheap no real no1 which we needed since magic left. The only improvement i see in this team is the reserves thats it tbh.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theblueboy Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 Have you Poole boys thought about getting Lawrence of Arabia in as a heat leader? Could be a decent point scorer, particularly at home. 3 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZagarRacing Posted April 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 Poole missed a trick by not signing Chris Harris. He was the glue that held that team together and won the league. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They must be on a water meter.. Maybe someone should open a Go Fund Me page so they can fill the bowser up.

foreverblue Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 Personally i think the team will be fine but the meeting was ruined as a spectacle by not putting enough water down, the meeting was delayed because they had the bowser going round so why not let it go round every 2 or 3 heats instead all we got was a couple of hoses being waved around. Not good enough. If we had the bowser going round at regular intervals there would be very little dust and a better meeting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Templeton Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 It's been the same for ages. That's why I stopped going two years ago after years of supporting the team and promotion. They have just never address the problems.They only have themselves to blame. Such a crying shame. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not good enough. If we had the bowser going round at regular intervals there would be very little dust and a better meeting There wasn’t even a hosepipe on turns three and four, until just before the nominated heats. Was there a reason the bowser didn’t reappear? I couldn’t see a thing from heat nine onwards, although I suppose under the circumstances that may have been for the best. I agree with you regarding the team, Holder will sort himself out, and Worrall seems to be doing pretty well for Leicester. The others are performing pretty much as expected. Also, Swindon’s top three were exceptional, so it’s a bit silly to be reading too much into one meeting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a few months off this place and when I came back he was gone and Blackheart was posting the same sort of stuff as him. Has he actually said it's him? I know MFF had become a laughing stock as he was calling out people who go every week yet he has never even been to Poole! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
