Edit...See Howarth has been ruled out tomorrows meeting at Sheffield. Both Kyle and Rory have been named in the championship pairs at Somerset next friday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would happily have him back next season. It's good to see a smile on his face again this season. Didn't think he was that impressive Monday got beat a long way by Douglas in one race and can't imagine anyone thought he should be in heat 15.

SteveLyric2 Posted September 11, 2019 Report Share Posted September 11, 2019 So I guess the big question is whether Swindon get anything from Kings Lynn on Monday as to whether KL need to come up with a date to host Poole (17th or 19th?), assuming Poole pick up maximum points from their two home meetings?!

Batchelor was beaten in a rerun by the flying Douglas after hurtling at high speed into the fence. He has been very good this year enjoying his racing and the new track suits him for me with Doyley should be certainties for the 2020 season.

Lets not forget Jack had a crash last Thursday at Poole yet still managed 8 points - not good enough for a 3rd heat leader maybe but perhaps understandable.

Yes true but his season has been very inconsistent and not what we would expect from someone who started the season at number one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveLyric2 Posted September 12, 2019 Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 (edited) KL v Poole scheduled for 19th September according to Speedway Star, but only if the top spot still needs to be resolved after Monday's scores.!! Otherwise deferred to after the playoffs. Edited September 13, 2019 by Skidder1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't put too much store on last nights performance, if he repeats it on Monday then I will have more confidence going in to the play offs when we will need all our riders on form. THJ looked a little better last night but still a long way short of what is needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He dropped his only point to Riss and beat Harris once and Cook 3 times, as well as setting his new fastest time of the season in heat 4. and getting Rider of the Night! Both his and Brady's Swedish teams are out of their play-offs so should cut down on their travel considerably. Great to see Chris Holder and Max there too last night.

Bagpuss Posted September 13, 2019 Report Share Posted September 13, 2019 (edited) Poole were built strength in depth which means they’ve had to compromise their top end strength a little. Perhaps Holder and Kurtz are as good now as they are going to get? Decent riders without breaking into the top bracket which Fricke for example seems to have done.
