Why announce this the day between the two matches of the play off final? Seems very strange timing. Almost as though he is trying to take attention away from the teams in the final. Why come out with all this today of all days? I was thinking that. On my timeline on Twitter it is about Poole dropping down! And I follow a few Swindon fans too. Sure it will change back tomorrow!

A big problem is other clubs and their fans with a holier than thou attitude who are too easily prepared to blame Poole for their mistakes & misfortunes. Start listing your facts... We can then all see who is holier than thou. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joining two thirds of a way through a Speedway meeting is what they do best... I'll live with that as long as we get that Marcelina that Eurosport use for SEC in the pits ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Poole do move down the top league isn't big enough anyway so simply can't happen unless some move up which I doubt will happen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it would have got announced if it wasn't likely to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I would imagine Poole will be accepted into the Championship. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil The Ace Posted October 17, 2019 Report Share Posted October 17, 2019 100% not a bluff, Sheffield look like they will be up under new ownership, (so you can guess who that is) and don't be surprised 2 see 2 teams in top league that no one would ever have thought about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buttons Posted October 17, 2019 Report Share Posted October 17, 2019 Surely if Poole drop down and run on Wednesdays won't that effect crowds at both Poole & Somerset ?, as the Rebels run on a Wednesday, I don't know how many fans attend both tracks though.

It was just one match that Pawlicki missed, and his absence covered by a 3 pointer if I recall correctly. Timed to perfection though! Still, Coventry paid the price afterwards with a cold shower!

He should have ridden about 12 but was stopped from riding time and again so he remained below 6 meetings and get an official average and be used at reserve in the final. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
