We just had some bad form at the wrong time. But table shows we are the best over the season. Maybe poor is harsh but i was pretty confident this Poole side would not win it out of the four teams left.Even with Covatti at reserve and R/R for Worrall for me you would of still come up short the main reason is that i believe Kurtz / Holder would do better at a different home track.

If Swindon had hit form as early as Poole, we would have finished ahead of Poole easily. Look at the match points of both teams, Swindon had a much higher points scored with less points scored against them. Yet finished lower - so not all about match points clearly. But I hope Swindon win the final. Edited September 30, 2019 by Skidder1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fliss44 Posted September 30, 2019 Report Share Posted September 30, 2019 Like a lot of forum members on here (before a certain poster accuses me of ''bullying'') now Poole have gone I don't mind who wins although as the underdogs I would love it to be Ipswich.

Yes real bad calls. Like winning the league again last season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you read my post fully, I said at the end of the season. In today's speedway, It's not the team that finishes top that counts, it's often the team that are in form in Sept/Oct. That's when Swindon really started to motor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might do and if Brady is off to BV then we sure will find out! Trouble is at Poole Brady is the no1 and at BV that will be Fricke, so less pressure = happy Brady!

That track will suit Brady down to the ground and like Max will be worth watching around the NSS everyweek. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kurtz Howarth, Starke, Dyer, Strachya, Kennett, Starke , Newman, Andersson, Zengota, Lahti Watt ( last year) often releasing riders at the wrong time and in some cases undeserving.

You finished in style winning at Kings Lynn (no other team had) and topped the table under huge pressure from the most in form team Swindon, Poole were very much in decent form. It’s just 4 riders let you down when it mattered. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think that Zach will come good. I believe that his last speedway injury played on his mind. Batch had 2 bad seasons after his injury & then returned to form at Kings Lynn followed by 2 great seasons at the Abbey, this year his average has gone up from 7.69 to 8.82. From what I can gather, Zach has been doing well in grass track this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
