Yes looks a strong team, not much left for the reserves though but the top 5 should ensure they will be title contenders. The key maybe Anders Rowe who had a good season but seemed to taper off a bit towards the end but I seem to recall he had some good meetings at Oxford, good luck to him, nice guy.

Luke Killeen and Mitch Mcdiarmid signed by Oxford.

Not sure about that Glasgow could have two riders that could increase their starting average massively especially Pedersen and Sam Hagon is better than his current average, had some very good rides at Poole not that long ago and Hodder also did well last season I thought.

Yes that is true but when it comes to the play offs Zach outperformed Kyle so Howarth was more consistent over the season, he did have one of his best seasons.

Glasgow have to be favourites. It remains to be seen how Bowes will fare, personally I have my doubts about him.

Not sure any Poole fans have called anyone else names, quite the reverse.

What a relief that is, I won't don't worry. It is offensive to ask and I am the idiot who knows how to look up a rider's average!

How rude to suggest I suffer from mental illness just because I said you should be able to find riders averages very easily.

He is definitely not new to the sport and he is constantly slagging Poole off although that is not unusual on this forum! He has also been on the 2026 confirmed signings page where all the averages of signed riders can be found.

I am not that little!!

He must be one of the very few on this forum that doesnt know how to find a rider's average.

It isnt hard to find any riders average.

Always the usual comments from you.

Poole always needed Zach back so very good news he will be. You can't say Gilkes will never stay fit, he has been unlucky with injuries and has had many but you can't say he will never stay fit. As for Kerr he now has a low average considering his ability so I expect an increase.

With his average why would he start anywhere else?

Who are the pilots? Maybe Zach will be flying next season!

Maybe they were hoping for Dan Gilkes.

Lambo would be a good addition in my view, had a bad season but showed glimpses of better form at times and like Kerr seemed to have a lot of bike issues. I think he could be worth a go but the obvious choice for him is probably Berwick.

You say that but Poole fans get told all the time about posting on non Poole threads.

Zach isnt going anywhere.

I agree with your misgivings about some of the team but despite that i did moan about Kerr, he is on a low average now so he should increase his average by a point without, hopefully, so many engine issues. Bowes could be the main issue, he has had good meetings but has had problems, I hope he can have a good season but not the sort of rider we would normally go for. i am sure Beau Bailey was in their plans and his u turn has messed things up a bit.

To be fair, Lewi did have a lot of engine issues, he is meant to be a professional, nobody else had so many engine problems.

I don't mind him commenting on a Poole thread but Lisa has a point Ipswich have more problems to solve than us. We have a good team for 2026 and should challenge for honours.

Good signing, we hope he stays fit as he is a great rider to watch.

I expect already signed ages ago just not announced. I think if he could fit us in to his schedule he was always coming back.
