I thought so. Not a lot else to say on the subject.

Yeah OK then!!

So sorry I had other things to do.. There are ample examples of riders not being paid on time or even what they are due - not only in this country but also in Poland and Sweden. I haven't said that Poole is the only club to pay on time, but they do have the well-deserved reputation. As a club and rider sponsor of many years I stand by my comment that Poole do NOT pay over the odds! .And believe me I hear many tales of unpaid monies from visiting riders!! When the season gets underway and you have the chance to chat with your 2023 riders, ask the question and see what response you get from their previous seasons?

So whats this non-critical 'fortunate position' of which you speak??

Yeah the next round isn't til Saturday!!!!!

Some are saying on facebook that Ben Cook is quite battered and bruised after his crash with Brady Kurtz! He may even not take his place in the 2nd round?????.....

The Plymouth 'Infamy, Infamy, they've all got it in for me' Gladiators!!

What 'fortunate position' is that then? Oh yes, being able to guarantee that riders will be paid on time and as per contract! Thats why riders want to ride for Poole. Shouldn't every club be aiming to do the same?!

Panthers made mainstream terrestrial TV today when they were the question/answer on the The Chase. The Chaser got it right too!!

Ben Cook (2,2,2,0,2)only missed out on a semi final place to Masters (1,3,0,2,2) due to Sam's one heat win! Not bad in that level of competition.

You are on fire Lisa. Oh wait that was the Plymouth track wasn't it? Sorry!

Did somebody say something??

...and there I was hoping that in 2023 the Poole thread would be troll-free!!! Now where is that ignore button?

Yes the very same. It had been discussed and proposed by the board at a pre-agm meeting and then turned down at the agm itself.

Lawson isn't number 1. The signing is already online in the local Echo. Dan Rose left yesterday and it looks like Tom Crocker - another regular speedway reporter - is now covering Pirates. Not sure why PL and EFL fixtures today and tomorrow are relevant? Cherries and Saints both played and lost yesterday and there are no EFL teams locally/regionally. Danny Ford promised a New Years announcement and delivered accordingly.

Danny Ford confirms 7.97

Don't need to guess! Lawson (7.97) confirmed for Poole.

On 11th and 13th Jan respectively!

I really don't get why Poole fans can't follow the progress of our assets when they are also signed up by other clubs because of their racing abilities?! Just for the record Zach's last 6 meetings - at the business end of the season - scored 13+4; 7+2; 11+3; 9+1; 10+1; and 9.

It made me laugh! CVS and PA clearly see 'what the fuss is about' or they wouldn't have signed him.

So with 6.21 left for the last 2 riders, who will Plymouth be surprising us all with? Happy New Year Gladiator fans.

He went from 2 and 3 points in his first 2 Plymouth visits early season, then 7+1 and 7+3 in his last 2 visits. Whats not to like?!

I never said we were!!

Well if Tate were to sign up on a 5.00 for Poole that would mean Thomas at reserve and that ain't happening as Thomas is riding at 2, as announced.

Not to start with cos he hasn't ridden in 2023 yet!!!
