See not nice when someone does it to your team is it? So maybe think twice about doing it to Poole. Thanks. 

I haven't commented on Poole or your track for at least 6/7 weeks, build a bridge and get over it,you will feel much better in yourself.

Seriously ? You don't think a 34 point deficit will affect the size of the crowd ? Or are you just trying to be a smart arse?

It's always the latter with dear old Skidder.

I'm sure he'll remember 2009 when Poole were shyte, finished one from bottom and their crowds were awful.

Yep sure do. One poor season 14 years ago now but so many trophies and great crowds since, except when we ran on Thursdays!

Still way more than what Lynn get now though. Skidder puts money into the club, he can say what he wants.

I think he’s trying to make a point. Most Glasgow fans have been bleating on about how they’d rather have exciting racing at Ashfield than worry about winning silverware….so why wouldn’t they turn up to watch the ‘exciting racing’? 

'Most' Glasgow fans don't bother with speedway forums. There's probably less than 30 on this one and yes some of them would rather watch good exciting racing than win trophies. The majority of Glasgow fans are like most fans they want to see their team win at home. The difference at Glasgow is that they also get good exciting racing as a bonus. Most fans also realise that not every team can win trophies and teams that win  trophies don't always attract big crowds. The Ford's model works for Poole and they are very good at it. For example, they signed  and kept 2 of the best gaters in the league who are also apparently very good at  manipulating their averages. Unfortunately their success also results in them attracting sad people that can't help spout nonsense and who enjoy trolling,

I was only young at the time but my memory of 93/94 glory days was racing wasn't the best, teams showed up beaten and crowds went down. Success didn't increase crowd levels for us. Same in 2011, although racing was better but crowds dwindled as the season went on

We don't have any trolls at Poole.  We may have one or two odd posters, but I've never witnessed any trolling from us like the trolling we receive!

Poole is without doubt the most trolled club in speedway.  Success obviously breeds contempt.

Personally I prefer to block the major trollers as I refuse to give them airtime, however fellow Pirates supporters are free to do as they wish and respond to whom they wish.  That's the whole point of a forum my dear fellow.

Oh the irony. You disappeared for months after trolling a certain rider.
