semion Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 Seems like Poole are ok on the road, but at home, oh dear. Says on thing. The home track isn’t fit for purpose. The Wimborne track has had a ? Against it now for a few years. Is it still the same guy preparing it ? If so rather than sack riders maybe Ford should look at getting someone in who knows what they are doing. As the saying goes, at least Poole will be able to concentrate on The League now.

Skidder1 Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 7 minutes ago, BLACKHEART said: Stop using the track as an excuse. Last we week we lost at home to King's Lynn. The meeting was 37-35 to Poole with 3 Heats to go. Robert Lambert won Heats 13 & 15 which KL hit two 5-1s in. Heat 13 & 15 decided the meeting result. The two meetings against Swindon we haven't won why because we can barely take points off their HL's We lost to Peterborough a team that is built 3 points under the limit. Our top end is not strong enough and that is the sole reason why we lost. Holder is not a No.1. Kurtz is not reliable when under pressure in the big races. We will see this all season long. So which available heat leader(s) would you suggest are signed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gavan Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 2 minutes ago, BLACKHEART said: It's all good having a strong reserve pairing when you have a reliable No.1 to go with them. But when you have a rider who is not a No.1 and the back up option is a rider (Kurtz) who has proven he cant ride at No.1 then it defeats the object of strength in depth. Jakobsen or Covatti have to be sacrificed along with Worrall because strength in depth does not work when the club doesn't have a reliable No.1 or No.5 Us at Ipswich seem to have the best reserve pairing in the league......so far. We have a weak top 5 but every rider seems to be chipping in with 7 or so or more and thats carrying us through At Poole at the moment they have Holder and Worrall struggling to get 6, and Josh and Brady doing ok Pooles reserves on paper should be doing so much better 2 home meetings so far......13 points and 2 race wins.......9 points and 0 race wins......thats not enough from the reserves for a team with strength in depth Ipswich (also built with strength in depth) 2 home meetings so far......17 points and 3 race wins.....17 points and 3 race wins.......thats why Ipswich are doing well and the top 5 with 6 or 7 each wins meetings. Poole need to axe Worrall and one of the reserves 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreverblue Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 I don't think we need a knee jerk reaction to one bad meeting. Several riders didn't perform on a badly prepared track and no bowser during the meeting didn't help either difficult to see most races certainly couldn't see some of the track with all the dust, just not good enough. Swindon have a good side but we made them look better than they are. Only a couple of our riders can be given any credit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ovalman Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 Christ didn't see that coming after last night. Swindon's heat leaders ran riot. Will be a fearsome trio this season. GO ROBINS!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from playoffs Good Friday is Poole's biggest crowd, so would be stupid not to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody has blamed the track as far as I’m aware for Poole losing - they have just commented on how bad the track was. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
