Not that I think it's cheating, but was r/r not allowed for 14 days or something then it was 0.75 guest? Or am I thinking about someone else? Something nagging back of my head but not sure if was Poole or someone else

That does ring a bell tbh, I think cos it took a little longer to get a replacement we had to start using guests.

I think your right,I'm sure it could have been to do with covid restrictions, the idots call it cheating 

Even if that particular result was quashed Poole would still have ended up top of the league and gone on to win the playoffs. Some folks on here are really being petty by saying that Poole cheated their way to the title. They were streets ahead of every other team in October/November.

It's difficult not to when they come out with all this jealousy and lies 

Again with the jealousy!! Of what!!  again you won Div 2 of a sport very very few people care about. 

So you didn't use R/R when it isn't allowed then? If you did (when its very clear above that you did) then where are the lies?

Indeed if they'd have come 6th they'd have still won the playoffs.

Wasnt the original issue at the time with the use of R/R and a guest because Smetana hadn't previously ridden a match for Poole and as per the rules that were in place at the time, most expected that no actual facility was in place , 

But he couldn't ride because of covid restrictions in Czech, were there any rules for that at the time? I don't think there were, that's why the committees own discretion was used imo.

I think more people think less of the joke 6 team premiership, what is it 4 out of 6 to the playoffs. 

As post above, if that result had been quashed, we would still have gone on to win the championship, so didn't cheat to the title

No there was no rule it seems , but its easy to see why some may see it as an advantage , there were other teams that benefitted from some rules that were adjusted to suit the situation with covid at the time not just Poole

Havin just been on the British speedway website, I notice that Poole have no riders mentioned for the 2022 season, can anyone confirm this and if so what are/could be the reason.

Seriously?

Rent issues. Just been confirmed as sorted out. Rider announcements this week apparently.

Poole have been allowed to have 7 R/R riders for next season. When riding away It has been agreed the home riders to cover the rides, when at home it has been agreed they can have seven guest riders up to a points limit of 50, this should ensure they easily win the league

Sounds like treble winners to me with that lineup :party:
