lewy Posted September 20, 2022 Report Share Posted September 20, 2022 Good meeting, poole look very strong going into next stage of the playoffs, can't afford to have one of the top 3 to have a bad meeting though as kemp and Ablitt are struggling imo,also zach cook is a weak link away from Wimborne Road. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technik Posted September 20, 2022 Report Share Posted September 20, 2022 Whilst I wish Lee Complin the best of luck in his future, I have to say he has at times shown a lack of ability to control his machine & has at times caused a team mate to backoff or be involved in a big crash. I'm sure there is no intent & I'm in no way saying he is a danger, he just needs to calm himself down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll have to excuse many of us older Speedway fans for singing "Queen" bymistake, many i know were born and have never changed since the late days of the Victorian era.

It was the old version played by the club after the minute's silence rather than what any older fans were singing. Such a shame after the impeccably observed silence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In your desire to nit-pick in the classic boring Poole way I think you're totally missing the point MILLIONS will inadvertantly sing "Queen" for quite a while as its etched on their subconscience Plymouth did not have a fixture until last night since Queen died, the minutes silence was for "the Queen" again, was it wrong to use the words that had been relevant for her since 1952. It''s a bloody good job they didn't play the second verse , that would have been "way too long" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ablitt has struggled all season but we all knew he would, maybe Connor Coles would have been a better option but Nathan does pick up the odd point and has improved. Kemp is frustrating as he clearly has ability as shown in heat 14 last night and in heat 14 at Leicester but why he has to wait until heat 14 for a decent ride I don't know. Zach got a reasonable score at Leicester, a track he hasn't scored well at in the past,he has been better lately in general so don't see him as a worry.

Poole would have thought it referred to them! The second verse usually sung ("Thy choicest gifts in store/On him be pleased to pour") is actually the third verse.

As Skidder said it's not the spectator singing that was the issue it was the recorded version that was broadcast - if they didn't have the correct version then an instrumental version would have been the better option (and it's nothing to do with "nit picking" either). 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
