As I have said elsewhere for  a family sport that they keep on about I feel is getting expensive now. A average family of mum and dad plus 2 kids over 11 and your admission is £60 add to that  programmes, parking and a bit of food plus petrol and your talking of around £100 for a family night out.    To date they have not announced how much programmes will be next season or how much the stadium will charge for car parking. Also judging by the way stadium security were checking bags at the end of last season I can see drinks and snacks not being allowed to be taken into the stadium  I can see a lot of people thinking is the 2025 season affordable or maybe picking and choosing there meetings.  The best thing is you can be sure that if the  crowd numbers fall and we end up back in the championship (or worse) in 2026 it will be all OUR fault for not supporting the club.

Knowing Poole I'm sure the temporary 2 pointer would have been sorted some time ago knowing that a lot of the decent one's would have been snapped up by other teams. It's really that 6th slot that is the most intriguing. Would Poole really leave an almost one point hole and sign Starke ??. The possible returning Aussie comment/s on the FB Forum (I don't follow that forum) or an exciting young 4 rider like Mcdiarmid keeps the guessing interesting as we near enough know the other 5. 

Jordan Stuart maybe if granted a 25% discount for not riding UK for 4 years. Still only 26 and if not retired could do a good job at reserve as was showing promise at Redcar before serious injuries. If not retired, as even Swindon signed him up for Prem before cancelling running in 2020/21.

Both equally capable of falling off at any stage of a race, without warning.

For all our wrongs, us boys in Norfolk do know a thing or two…😉

Maybe his job offer could cope with riding for the Bandits, but not doubling-up to ride regularly during the week in the Premiership …
