Unfortunately with the average age dynamic at Wimborne Road the average use time of adult nappies and lilets does not exceed the time limit to safely complete 30 heats of Speedway and the further limit of no more than 5 heats with passing* excitement (*excuse the pun) 

Ho ho ho

Could always run 5 double headers why would this not work?

To be honest if everything goes to plan we could easily run 2 meetings by 10pm but it's when you have an accident or 2 or the teams having to use RR then meetings start to drag

Getting back to Poole 2025.

Assuming Rowe signed any ideas on who will fill the 2 reserve slots ??. 

We know Cairns likely from end June but still leaves the temp 2 pointer and for me more importantly the first reserve. Will it be perhaps an overseas rider (with potential) or the cheaper safer 3.36 option of Starke thus leaving almost a point on the table with the 40 point limit.

No he isnt, with his ability he should be a 8.5 point rider and was at the start of last season but had a bad season so it dropped. Riding with Lawson I expect him to get back to at least that level, he is a top rider in the championship, just needs to show it.

Yep, agree with that. Feel like the 3 and 4 position is important to get right. Zach and Anders should be putting a point on their average imo.

Yes Zach and Anders should be improvers so should Tobias who was averaging well above his average at the end of last season but I also think kerr should be able to improve on his current average too.

How do you think Lawson will get on with his average being his highest for a few years?

He is normally a team man & will let his partner take the higher points but for some reason he is now settled with a 9+ point average which will limit his guest appearances.

I see the last time Lewy posted on his own teams thread was the 17th November, shame he doesn't put the time and effort into that one like he does the Poole ones 

Yes, Poole thread should be Poole fans only, bad Lewy!

I guess the other Poole riders were more wise to it this year! Plus Hagon was at no2 for last half of the season and if he did have a good race was normally H8 (unless he was taken out of it). Also Sam goes quite wide into the bends especially 3 and 4 (which doesn’t really work early in the meeting) so maybe Rich not comfortable team riding then as could lose team points.

*that was quite difficult using words that people won't turn into something dodgy like yesterday!*

I don’t think Lawson will guest as often this season if he is riding in Poland

About 8.30 for me, usually fall asleep watching the racing on BSN by then at Poole..

Crikey the cheap Xmas cracker jokes are coming out early!!

Interestingly most of those clubs opting to run in NDL next year, as well as having full access to their tracks (ex Brum) are all choosing to run NDL at the weekends - Fri-Sun - rather than midweek.

Reading on the Edinburgh 2025 Forum that 17 year old Max James may not be back at Edinburgh in 2025.

Could this be the temporary 2 pointer for Poole until July ?.

Rode 2 matches at Poole for Edinb in 2024 - 9 rides with a 4 ride av of 2.22 or 2.67 with bonus.

Would indicate he has lots of improvement in him as only 18 in July, plus could do a job at Poole.

Saw plenty of encouraging comments on him last season in his first Champ season plus he did well (especially his away av at Leicester NDL team.

Anyway an interesting possible development unless signing elsewhere.

Nope!

PS.... and could it be a very unexpected JG?
