Nothing wrong with his preparation in Heat 3.

At least be gracious in victory by admitting the truth about Ipswich's misfortune tonight.

I still don't understand where misfortune contributed any significant difference to a comfortable home defeat?

Edit: just saw your list of "reasons". Tungate fell under pressure, but I don't think Zagar was at fault (neither did Nicholls). King was awful, and failed completely twice on the third/fourth bend - that's not misfortune, that's poor riding. Summers *might* have done a bit better in Heat 8 - maybe the ref should have stopped the race and excluded Rowe - so no better than a 3-3. Heat 9 - no idea if the red lights came on or not - there didn't seem to be any protests.
It was a strong performance by Belle Vue who learned quickly, and outfought, and outthought the Witches, winning heats 2 to 15 by a score of 29-49 ...

Because that is all they can afford to run at......

When success costs too much in the top tier and they drop to mid table and lower, their fans foxtrot oscar leaving them with no profit...

Hence better to run in the lower tier and make some cash with the usual glory hunting success...:D

Those days are long gone calling it the top tier, ward,holder,magic,woffinden that was the good days, probably about 5 riders that ride in the top league that don't ride in the championship.I was gutted when we dropped down, but i know which league i would rather be in, more variety, racing just as good

Let's see what 2023 brings, I have a feeling things will be very different.

There’s four top tier only riders in our team alone. 

We put up with Jason Doyle’s Ipswich team visiting three times while you get to enjoy four visits from Plymouth. 

The dreadful “racing” will be just the same no matter what division you’re in as at the end of the day it’s Poole. Gate ‘n’ go.

Peterborough brought in Jenkins before the transfer window opened. What’s the difference. 
 

rising starts are still a team member so they should have used a guest RS till the window opened for them 

Big difference between the two and you know it.

Such a move would not comply with the Speedway Regulations (SR10.3.1)

More like Louis running scared well he got karma justice last night no wonder Lambert & woffinden don't  ride here BSPA are dinasours why should a team suffer through  season ending injury ? Hope Louis is sulking like a baby this morning and we batter them on Monday and make his long trip a miserable one slapped Arse

No there isn’t. They are still a member of the 1-7 they should be treated the same 

Disagree otherwise you'll have teams bringing in the Harlem Globetrotters who can't be asked to ride over here just for the play offs and that is wrong.

If the best riders want to rider here, brilliant but sign up at the start of the season and not when they just want a pay day.

Yeah like Poole &wolves did through tactical changes but you can't when a riders season is finished crap Louis was rubbish scared of us having Lambert well he got karma justice last night also max is double world champion GP winner so by those statistics he is a better rider than Lambert and a higher average :party:
