While that's true, Starke racing at reserve for Poole should score more than he did for Glasgow. Would be surprised if his average went above Thomsen's.

Dickie Head Posted December 15 Report Share Posted December 15 I see on Facebook that the supporters club have a quiz planned for 15 January. Full team should be known by then. Should generate some lively discussion between questions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gavan Posted December 16 Report Share Posted December 16 Poole have lost Cook Brennan Foord and Hagon … replaced by Rowe Kerr Starke and a 2 pointer Yes they had to lose points but that’s a big downgrade of rider 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see more than 1 signing on July 1st. Even with Cairns this team will struggle, they must be saving the 0.96 for someone. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh I can certainly see this team winning the league (with Cairns). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn’t watch that dross every week there’s very little to get excited about there! There HAS to be envious eyes looking up to the Premiership and seeing fans watching the likes of Sayfutdinov, Doyle, Holders, Woffinden, Fricke, Bewley, Kurtz, whilst their leading lights are Richard Lawson! Used to have Shovlar telling all and sundry when Poole were in the top flight that he’d NEVER support lower league racing because it was crap.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the "envious eyes" bit was fact then nobody would watch NDL and the like. Yes the Premiership has some top riders but it doesn't automatically make the racing more exciting to watch. There's no denying that watching Vinnie and Tobias was worth the fee. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On that rationale the GP's would be the best racing you can watch but in reality how often is that the case? No doubting that the track craft of world class riders on a decent track can produce brilliant racing but any riders of similar ability can produce that, i certainly don't buy that higher levels is required to produce excitement, in fact lower grades can add to unpredictability which brings anticipation in different ways. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASpeedwayfan Posted December 17 Report Share Posted December 17 This a good Poole team and I don’t see any teams with a better 1 to7. yes it’s not as good as last years but that’s speedway. Last Poole won 3 titles all rather comfortably. So it looks more competitive this season which is good. I don’t see why so many are desperate to put this Poole team down. They’ll be absolutely fine. arguably the best number 1 in the league possibly the best 3 and 4 pairing a number 1 riding at 5 a reserve who will be fantastic at home and good away 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ndl is often the best racing Yes you don't have the better riders and stylish riders But the racing is closer and more of them are trying hard Just the machinery and ability is lower standard 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take away the 7 you mention and your watching the same riders as Championship though.Not much in it IMO. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably get a maximum 5 rides per meeting whereas might get 7 most meetings elsewhere. Anyway it seems Poole's season seems to be resting on a 15 year old. Was very impressive at ashfield in the youth meeting and I'm sure be a success. But I don't see him coming in and scoring double figures immediately personally A tonne load of track time and running equipment on a totally different level to those around him plays a massive part in his results so far, far fairer playing field in the Championship so time will tell if he's as cracked up to the hype around him.
