The announcement has certainly caught the regional media attention, with excellent coverage in newspapers - print and online - plus TV, local radio stations and socials.😇

...til July 1st..Any one of several NDL hopefuls who would be chuffed at the chance!😄

I doubt Max Perry had Greg Hancock mentoring him!!

So the latest no.7 whisper on the Poole fans fb page is C.W.?! The only 2point CW I can think of is Belle Vue's NDL Chad Wirtzfeld? He did use to be Poole's mascot!!! Any takers........?

If the strengthened-up Pirates finally accept the surprise invitation to the Prem Cup and manage to beat Sheffield then they will be up against Brum or Leicester in the S/F so suitable guests/ assets shouldn't be an issue eg Cook, Brennan, Kurtz, Holders etc........🫠

Maybe due to some offtrack commitments early season? Imo its more to do with the dates rather than the team line-up!!!?

Is PTW JG?

Still subject to confirmation.

...says the expert on Championship teams!! It's only til July 1st. Fine for making the playoffs.

Both want tto get better with bigger clubs.

Steady signing.

Higher stadium costs than most.

But it has to make a profit or at least wash its face. It had to be bailed once only which was when Poole went from Prem to Championship. That's why the Fords work so hard with sponsors.

Hallelujah!

As its the Edinburgh thread I didn't want to go into anymore Poole-related detail.

Where has that been said? And who said it?

Yeah. Never blame the driver!!!🫣

It never ceases to amaze how interested so many non-Pirate 'fans' are in all things Poole Speedway and how personal and vitriolic the comments can be!! Apologies for the delay in replying but the hospital was running late... So - In one of the 38 point team options, Vinnie was included but possibly in the 1-5. In one of the 40 point team options the 1-5 and number 6 is a different line-up with the extra 2 points to play with. - As for the BSPL Board, Danny Ford advised that he needed to step down for 2025, due to additional 'off-track' personal commitments. It's not my place to say what they are but he was 100% forthcoming to the club's sponsors! He is replaced by Edinburgh's John Campbell, but has agreed to remain as 'first reserve' as and when required, subject to commitments!! NB. its the BSPL's place to make their announcement. So I hope thats sufficient for everyone, but I guess we'll see.......

They are on 4.00 and 3.00 respectively so neither fit!

Only James of those three would fit. It'll be a 2 pointer until July 1st when there may be more than one change based on GSAs upto 23rd June cut-off. With a later start to the season and careful management of fixtures from Easter to June, it'll be interesting!! I'm sure the Fords have all options considered.......

In a 38 point team including Vinnie, the 1-5 would have been different. Maybe even with Vinnie in the 1-5?!

But successful and entertaining teams also have to win away,as Poole did this year at every track in either League, Cup or BSN.

The local council are seeking to rename Wimborne Road to Trophy Place.😇 Although Champion Way is also under consideration along with Treble Avenue.😂

Although the Championships largest attendances don't seem to agree with you.
