Who was ref?

Absolutely shocker  Heat 13 was stone wall 're run with all 4

Cost Berwick at least point 

Gary flint not happy 

Be interesting if whoever it was is at Berwick sometime this season 

Was interesting to hear that Middlo agreed with him about the ref too!

Engine room of Berwick all experienced riders score 7 between them dire 

Only scored one point against a Poole rider (beat Ablitt)

All others were from beating a team mate.

Truly awful and feel for the other 4 riders.

Not acceptable from Ricky Wells. It’s not a one off, he’s been on the slide for weeks. Pijper has nosedived too. 
Bandits could easily have won that. 
Promising debut from Knudsen. Fantastic max from Bomber

After there last few results when it comes to the playoffs Poole fans should be slightly worried as they are not beating teams by many and over 2 legs they will need bigger home wins than there producing at the moment.

Depends who the referees are in the playoffs imo, they could win the final if only 3 riders turn up

Yes poor performance really against half a team, hopefully we can improve by the time the play offs come round.

And......?

No good having only 2 riders who can and a reserve on his debut scores the same points as 3 more experienced riders is there?

Impressed with Knudsen. His debut at Poole was a lot more in control than Basso's debut!! All i'm saying! So potentially could be better than him in the future?

We definitely rode our luck against Berwick there. Thought it was going to be a 45 all draw before H13 started. What was Lawson not happy about in H11? He seemed to have a go at the ref after the race as he rode past the main grandstand? 

Based on this meeting Glasgow are going to have a field day at Poole on the 13th July!! :o:blink:

Think the starter got in the way when leaving the tapes

Not the best of meetings. Since the track has got smooth, we have lost our home advantage and teams come here no with little fear. Very little if my passing tonight which makes it a gating fest. The track seems to have lost the inside passing line.

Chris Harris a class above and was led for 2 seconds all night when Lawson charged under him in heat 15 but he dealt with that and pulled away. Special mention to Flint who continued to show his liking for Poole, carrying on from last season when he scored paid 13. Also the young Dane looks impressive and definitely one for the future. The rest looked poor, especially Wells who was given an undeserved second opportunity in heat 14 when tailed right off.

The ref made a howler allowing heat 11 to start when the start martial virtually knocked Kemp off his bike. Green light and go when Kemp wasn’t ready. Red light and restart would have been the fair outcome.

The last few meetings seem to highlight we are a 6 man team,try as he may Nathan is not scoring any points and I wonder how long the Ford's will let this situation continue.If they choose to make a change will one of the other 6 be sacrificed or am I talking nonsense ?

If you want a stronger reserve, then yes you would have to change someone in the top 5 as well.

No you can’t combine the averages of two riders, say one 6 and the other two, and bring in two 4 pointers. You change like for like or redeclare the whole team back to the starting team building average. That isn’t going to happen. Unless there’s a rider out there on an average below Ablitt who could come in and do better, what’s the point? Can’t think of one. Nathan is trying but too big a jump at this stage of his career.
