I think Poole could beat this KL team with a their championship team. Seriously. I can see Poole 7 points up with two races to go and then conceding two 5-1.

I really wish a few punters would give the individual race format a chance and get behind riders rather than teams just as they use to in the 70’s and 80’s. Quite agree.. They can't do Team Speedway with any degree of integrity, credibility and kudos, so why not pump all their huge investment into putting up some big individual prize purses, promote the meetings accordingly, and get lads riding each night of similar ability in each race.. They are truly 'flogging a dead horse' by, year in year out, putting out a different version of the same old nonsense that they put out the year before.. The annual reduction of fans being a clear rejection of what they put out... The spectacle of the sport is on a par excitement wise with any other and much more exciting than most... So they should just sell that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Shovlar Posted July 5, 2021 Report Share Posted July 5, 2021 I, sitting here at home in Poole, said it would start raining and they should get on with it. They have had two add breaks, two interviews and a report from Monmore. clearly, the rain keeps marching in. If they don’t get to heat 15 it would be a disgrace.

Hawk127 Posted July 5, 2021 Report Share Posted July 5, 2021 A good performance by Ipswich but in fairness this is Championship speedway. The powers that be need to get the sport sorted and stop pretending. It does not and will not ever compete with Poland so stop dreaming and give joe public regular weekly racing with local riders and teams that the punter can relate to not the mis- mash you have today and put the meetings on when you have the best chance of a decent gate and stop using the excuse of rider availability. Make work or shut it down. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BartoszZmarzlikFan Posted July 5, 2021 Report Share Posted July 5, 2021 Said it last week and I'll say it again KL should pull out of the league. Just risking the clubs future now. Nobody is going to pay £18 to watch the KL side. Lucky Nicholls is guesting otherwise it would be a cricket score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was one of the good things about the old individual meetings. In the case of a Riders Championship yes, but if teams were done away with and replaced by just individual meeting I think I would lose a lot of interest. Like I say I support a team. Individual riders come and go but the team stays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
