Poole were trying ti sign him the following year based on that. Unless you were thinking of Luke Becker who got 16+1 at reserve for Wolves at Poole in 2019??! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaizer Posted August 18, 2021 Report Share Posted August 18, 2021 Broc isn't exactly setting world on fire riding at no.2 for us, at no.1 against probably best top 3 in the league I can't see him scoring too well for scunny. Hope I'm wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LisaColette Posted August 18, 2021 Report Share Posted August 18, 2021 As a rule americans do tend to do well at Poole though! So might be good for 7-8 points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a quick look and only Kennett and Kerr (they have both ridden for Poole in the past) that may have been chosen above. But Kennett has had a bad reaction to his covid jab and not sure if Kerr is riding abroad?? So on the face of it Nicol is a pretty decent guest and luckily he agreed as the rest would have been Howarth, Wells, Thomsen etc. Which are okay but would be tough for them at no1 as probably have 5 rides with the r/r as well.

Rather have a proper opposition to ride against than that feeble looking team. When your in the lower league expect lesser opposition.

old bob at herne bay Posted August 18, 2021 Report Share Posted August 18, 2021 Think given the uncertainty at EB that Kennett’s reaction to a Covid jab maybe a reaction to not being paid ? ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should sign a foreign rider that never rides to boost the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old bob at herne bay Posted August 18, 2021 Report Share Posted August 18, 2021 The points limit ensures teams of similar standard compete against each other to produce close results…. Must be very difficult indeed to promote these meetings with teams of 2 gusts and R/R. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tosh1218 Posted August 18, 2021 Report Share Posted August 18, 2021 I think there will have been a few riders who wouldn’t have taken the guest spot away to Poole ; due to the opposition and the distance to the meeting . Let’s get tonight out of the way and look forward to the Brummies on Friday we’re the guest booking will be essential Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least they have attempted to stem the flow. Track was under watered tonight with dust issues but they have been watering every 4 heats.
