Do not get there before 6 though as there is a 2 hour parking restriction which is strictly adhered to by the powers that be on a race night............. RP

Thank you...............First meeting for me will be 08 April against Lakeside............ RP

Sadly unable to make this one (Family funeral) or Good Friday (work)............... Think it will be a very close run thing over both legs................ I think King's Lynn are going to be the team to watch again this year.............. RP

I saw the book in my local WH Smiths in Winton near Bournemouth today..................will have to look at getting that on pay day.............. RP

Not strictly true...................don't all clubs prepare to the home teams advantage...........and Poole have not won every single home meeting over the last few seasons.................so that theory does not hold water................ RP

Fair enough.............I got it wrong though the FIM piece about it stated King's Lynn were to ride instead of Poole but nothing about Poole withdrawing or why...........to be fair I can't blame them................. RP

From what I have seen its an FIM decision not Poole's................. RP

The BSPA will not agree to Britain taking part in the pairs..............why who knows............ RP

Who cares how long his hair is as long as he produces the goods.............. RP

Who says that is going to happen...............apart from all the sceptics................ RP

You read correctly................he did say that initially...........may be you are right........may be that is the case but in reality I hope Magic does the whole season..............and hope he does well in the GP's too............... RP

Not touchy at all.............just thinking that some of the people who post on this thread that are not Poole fans don't post the same sort of thing on other teams threads....................for the record Skidder1 does know what he is talking about despite some peoples thoughts to the contrary................ RP

Not really..............just commenting that people seem more interested in what we are doing as opposed to their own teams..............of course I have been following what others do but rarely comment.................. Oh and its the way I have always written on forums.............each to their own............. RP

I find it quite amusing that other fans are more interested in what Poole are doing rather than looking at what their own team are doing........... Scared we are building another title winning side??????????? Or looking at where their team could have been put together better................ RP

Apart from the fact I work funny hours so only can get to 2 out of every 3 home meetings even the cost of that is prohibitive to an extent............. I need to justify the £100 it would cost to take my family to every home meeting (4 adults and a 14 year old) and just cannot do it........... Bring the costs down and better promotion from a lot of the teams would be ideal............. RP

Why should I apologise for something I read somewhere other than the Leicester website.................and I read the Swindon Link............that was only posted today...................so how was I supposed to know..........I don't go checking other teams websites all the time.............. And no I was not being sarcastic I was stating fact............I tell it as it is and if people don't like it its not my problem................. RP

It was confirmed on the BSPA website too not wishing to be pedantic.............Also I don't have time to go looking at other local press and team sites all day................I do have a life you know..............and it does not revolve around BSF............... RP

I meant Elite League big names to have got them..............surely if Batch had his visa it would have been confirmed by the BSPA as they confirmed Doyle had his.............. RP

Jason Doyle is the only one confirmed of having a visa so far................though I dare say Batch's is in the pipeline...............same as Holder's is.................. The need to quote it'???????????? Because as usual Linksport does not quote the full facts..........it stated that they had their licence but not that Batch has his visa....................if he did they would have said that............that does not mean he is cleared to ride here yet...........same applies to any Aussie or non EU rider who has to go through this................. Oh and by the way sarcasm will get you no where.............. RP

They have the licence that will allow them to apply for Batch's visa.................he has to apply for that before he can return same as the others.............. RP

But is it...............I have a feeling we are in for a surprise........... RP

You say about prefabs............where I live in Bournemouth a lot of prefabs built after the war............the road I live in was mostly them.........then in the mid 1990's the council removed all the exterior cladding on them and brick built round them and put proper roofs on them not metal ones..........and completely modernised them.................we bought ours in 2002 and the internal walls are still the original ones..........from when they were first built.............. RP

Spot on.............I have known all the way along there were at least 4 options either with or without DW.................Its not so much us Poole fans here but other club fans jumping to conclusions..............as to what may or may not happen at Poole..........my comments were made purely to point out that the other poster could well be way off the mark in their thoughts............... RP

Just because it may be a Poole asset is one thing...........the visa situation is a whole separate issue...........like I said it could be a Poole asset but not an Australian one............... RP
