Indeed.  Not exactly a secret that Louis said from an early stage that he wouldn't join a single league set-up, and that he didn't want a 5 league Premiership.

No Dayle Wood then 

Ultimate top heavy side , the ritchings signing looks ok , cant see the other fella doing owt . 

Poole have done well to get a side close to Glasgows and Oxford definitely play offs at least  Rushen is a great rider but I expect his away average to be better than the home one… he isn’t the greatest trapper in the world and if Poole is going to be the same crap boring track as last season he may find it tough at home  Saw it at Ipswich last season when riders got out the gate before him he struggled to get past on a track that doesn’t produce much passing  Glasgow and Oxford have stronger top 5’s then Poole but the reserves can make the difference 

If they proceed with this lame brained idea of running the Premiership it will be financial suicide for clubs as no one is going to turn up and watch the same teams over and over again.  Also get Bradford up and running again so I can go back to the team I once loved.

Huge signing for Poole, bringing Cook back. It pains me to say it, but his performance at Ashfield in the play-off final was a captain’s performance. The resilience to bounce back from being bullied by Howarth in heat seven and passed by Harris in heat fifteen to win it for the Pirates in the race-off was remarkable. Excited for the season ahead. The Championship is shaping up to be competitive.
