Ben (6.09) and Zach (4.92) Cook are back at Poole.

He certainly talks the talk and his merch and social media image publicity is excellent

Are you sure thats why he left Oxford??

Basso 6.81

Jack Holder and Brady Kurtz. They both still have a base with Middlo and are at Wimborne Road most Wednesdays so makes sense. Also he heavily hinted that Lawson would ride for Poole rather than Leicester as he is a Poole asset. Chris Holder also possible if he has a Premiership place.

Remind us all again where Poole finished in the Premiership seasons before going Championship!!

Thats what was in last week's Speedway Star, but Danny Ford made no further comment on signings in his Piratecast interview on Wednesday, other than explaining the decision to 'drip feed' the announcements because 'things can change', even though terms have been agreed with all 7 riders!!! He recalled the Lawson announcement not happening til lateJanuary 2022 because he wasn't available til then!!

Suggest you look a bit harder then. I was saying that £50 for your name on a racesuit is good value but you wouldn't expect to get the racesuit at season end because corporate sponsors would pay more for their logo on the suit as Mark Philips explained in the video. At Poole last season (similar to SteveHols experience) race suits could be sponsored for I believe £700 and the suit was then yours at the season end or could be auctioned off to benefit the Riders Equipment Fund. Incidentally my invite to the Chateau is totally free of charge!!

It's only costing Plymouth fans £50 to have their name on the race suit. I doubt they will be able to keep the suit especially as sponsors logos will cost a lot more.

I know Status Quo are still pulling in the crowds but weren't party lines done away with when Digital technology was introduced?

Quite a strong line-up for the 500cc Solos. Tough one to call.

Cheers. I'd worked it out from the last GSAs anyway but Danny Ford confirmed it in Wednesday's announcement!

Finally. Its done the circuit of most clubs. Best to move on now.

Lighten up Lewy it's Christmas!!

Gladiator race suits in 2023 available for fans names (as well as company logos) to be added for a small fee. Shame the club didn't offer that this season as Lewy could have had his name on Eddie's race suit and we wouldn't have seen it all year!!

Danny Ford said last night that the draft fixture list was out but not yet confirmed by all clubs. He anticipated its availability early New Year, as he is not announcing season ticket prices until fans know exactly the number of fixtures and dates.

Kyle's painting and decorating is for one of his main sponsors, who is one of Poole's major sponsors and who has also worked on Matt's chateau!!

True. I meant two 4.00 riders like MacDonald and Zischke, especially if Kyle isn't fully fit from his shoulder op?!

I thought he was Aussie so not sure he qualified for the 2.5% reduction! Of course despite the Roynon rumours it could still be 2 x 4 pointers?

Or Josh Macdonald (4.00)? Or Connor Bailey (4.43)? Or..................?

Not the position he'd be riding at though. And as Danny Ford explained some things change so best to wait to announce. So 8.19 left for the final 2 reserves if our other predictions are correct and both must be under 4.78

Poole confirm Jack Thomas (4.78) who will partner Steve Worrall at number 2.

So Jack Thomas confirmed on Piratecast. Starting at 2 partnering Stevie Worrall.

Garry had better sign him then and he'll make sure there are no gaps in the contract too!!

I,ve said it many times before - promoting speedway as a 'family sport' has not exactly had the desired effect of increased crowds!? A few more 'handbags' and 'grudges' between certain teams/riders should be hyped up by local and social media and the clubs/riders themselves. Will 'fast and furious' attract more audiences than 'a family sport'? No brainer for me.
