    • That is a great name for the club !! and suggested by one of the Poole fans . 
    • That’s my point,wolves temporally at Bham would double the rent usage and get closer to the £150,000 needed  for Bham to take over a lease holders, it’s still a shortfall but what’s really needed is Birmingham council to open up the lease for other uses 
    • It’s the last season of speedway at Birmingham unless they buy the stadium which I doubt they could afford. 
    • A couple of thoughts about comments from Simon Lambert about the Scunthorpe NDL team (I'll ignore Sheffield as they seem to be ignoring the team so far lol). http://scunthorpe-speedway.com/?p=18241 “We were let down by Vinnie Foord, who agreed to ride for us. Once you’ve done a deal with a rider, you don’t expect them to change their mind, but Vinnie did, which was disappointing" David Norris then replied on the post with "Apologies Simon Lambert regarding Vinnie Foord  Please let it known it wasn't Vinnies fault, he just wants to ride speedway bikes, but it was my call as he already had other commitments" I'm gonna have to disagree with Norris here, wether he's Vinnie's manager or advisor or whatever, ultimately it's Vinnie's choice if he signs for Scunthorpe whether Norris agreed with it or not? Foord has the right to change his mind, but if he's made that decision, don't think Norris should take them blame, he can advise him all he likes, but Vinnie's gotta decide what's best for him. Lambert then says: “Another rider we were very much considering was Harry Fletcher, but we ended up with a side where we didn’t need a third rider on a 3.00 average.” So while they didn't need a third 3.00 rider, doesn't mean they couldn't have built a team a couple of points under the limit? I guess they want to build a team that can be competitive, while still developing riders?
    • What you've said makes far more sense, I couldn't understand why it was unfortunate if he'd turned down Kent twice. It's a real shame for him. If I was a Speedway rider, I'd want a signed contract before turning down another club.
    • That is rubbish. Anything to have a go at Poole. Pathetic.
