Great to hear that Stefan Neilsen will be at the stadium on Wednesday. He will be presented with the money from the recent collection PLUS a further donation from the Poole R.E.F. (Riders Equipment Fund!). With his average (4.79 minus British %) he's gotta be in line for a 2022 team place. ps. Zaine will be ok - he'll have the full Aussie contingent in the pits advising/assisting!

Stefan's Poole average is 4.79 and his Sheffield average is listed as 3.00 (presumably assessed?).

The Rising Star scheme should increase to '2 per team' only in the Championship, with the Premiership remaining at 1 Rising Star! Just my opinion.

With the AGM only a few weeks away I guess everyone will hear something then?

It'll be interesting to see who Poole choose to guest for Stefan, as I guess they'll keep Zach Cook for the play-off final?! Ruml maybe?

Didn't Marcin have a honeymoon after his wedding last week?

To rebuild some of the club finances!! Are you really a Pirates fan as you seem to be critical of quite a few things to do with Poole?

Good luck to the Pirates today. With Middlo and several riders travelling up yesterday, it should be a good close meeting.

I think its more a case of people having weekend jobs in clubs, bars, restaurants etc.

Just a bit liberal with those Poole assets Falcon!!??

Just asking!! He is a 2021 Premiership Final Winner after all!!

....and you never know could be a replacement (6.93) for Rooboy???

Just a thought with this signing - and bearing in mind Bomber's grasstrack/longtrack meetings - , but any likelihood that Berwick will go Premiership in 2022??

As long as the visa situation can be sorted then I reckon there will be at least 3 new Aussie lads to UK racing!!!! NB. with most fans raving about young Mr Hellstrom-Bangs, I see his interview in the Star this week reckons he'll be doing Poland/Sweden/Denmark in 2022, with the aim to do UK in 2-3 years time!!

Depending on the weather forecast next week I suppose Wednesday 27th could always become a double-header? But all things being equal I would think any combination of Fri/Sat/Sun would be chosen for the play-off final legs subject to the availability of Stadium staff at Poole?!

This has been stated many times over - yet nobody has ever tested it!! I wonder why?..........

So how will the Monarchs do riding their 3rd big meeting in as many days? Subject to anything untoward happening in the 2 Glasgow play-off ties, Both teams as expected although Poole have Glasgow's Connor Bailey guesting for Stefan Neilsen at reserve! (presumably saving Zach Cook potentially for the play-offs?!). Thoughts

One big issue was that all riders wanted to get paid at Polish Extraliga rates which simply could not be afforded in every country. Aside from that you also had the problem of Riders in more than one team! Who gets priority etc?

Give 'em a chance - they don't take over the contract til November 1st!!!

So could there be a new signing announcement coming soon - possibly a 'new-to-UK' racing rider? (Apart from last weekend of course!)

No its not Friday. As I said any day/time is subject to having the necessary staffing in any case.

All subject to stadium staffing availability of course!!!! As a matter of interest many fans are also AFC Bournemouth supporters and they are live on Sky at 8pm on Saturday 30th!

This wasn't a moan. I wasn't unhappy or complaining. It was a great effort by Team GB with some memorable photographs.

Ah that explains it!!

You could be right but Saturdays have a lot of competing activities/entertainment so could well affect the attendance?
