  1. Yes but that was before I spoke with Matt and Danny
  2. Shock horror Poole have gone bust because DC2 says so!! What an idiotic post. If you are so concerned with Poole's future you might try reading all the reasons Poole lost money last year. They are well documented even for those on some sort of twisted wind up. Terry Russell has already changed his 2020 budget several times to try to find ways of replacing the income from 2 lost Poole home meetings
  3. Where has it been said there's only one place available? As for Kent and Plymouth running SGBC and NDL teams surely it's their choice not a condition! Or have I missed something?? As for the youth round i'm sure it would be well supported at Poole as long as the date doesn't subsequently clash with an away league fixture which would require the club's promotion and many track volunteers to be elsewhere.
  4. Let's not forget the object of Poole going SGBC is to get back on a firm financial footing. Why would you look at starting something that although reasonably successful on track ( Buccaneers) last time was a financial disaster!! Poole Speedway don't own or lease Poole Stadium they merely rent it when required ( at a not inconsiderable rental either). Their only income is sponsorship advertising merchandise and admissions.
  5. As I edited above Poole host Weymouth's meetings.
  6. Lack of Stadium availability I presume. Weymouth have their meetings at Poole too.
  7. So when Poole come to Somerset or vice-versa will the racing, atmosphere, entertainment and attendance be worse because it's not Premiership?! Of course not!!
  8. So professionally produced tv is really just about attracting and keeping sponsors?! Not sure what evidence is around for that in recent years? It's good for the Sgbp riders but it doesn't make their demands to clubs any less. It's likely that clubs still have to pay more to riders simply because the riders know there is more money around due to.having a tv deal. What does it do for fans or to improve continuous attendance? Even if the attendance increases for a tv meeting due to a special promotion or reduced price, fans rarely come back in similar numbers. Or have I missed something and crowds are really on the increase all round and the sport is in a healthy state with no worries?
  9. The'higher quality coverage' hasn't exactly done much for the sport in all those years - assuming there were a set of objectives for the sport to improve?! Maybe 'budget basic coverage' may be enough to do no worse than before?
  10. Polish clubs run whenever it suits them no.matter what may have been agreed previously!!
  11. I'm sure Kent and Plymouth will also run a NDL team.
  12. So it's £50k per club per season over each of 5 years then? I was only asking. Maybe it was the BT deal done on the cheap?!
  13. Kurtz and Holder's pit bay name boards both up for sale on eBay! !
  14. I think both he and Matt were surprised at the number of fans that voted to go Championship!!
  15. Freddie Jacobsen is a class young rider. Whoever gets him will be well pleased. And another loan fee for Poole.!
  16. If it is only £10k per club per season. Then MF is right. The bspa have undersold it.
  17. As with most signings at every club it'll come down to numbers, the deal and permissions.
  18. Kyle has no reason not to ride for Poole if required.
  19. Is that 50k over 5 years ie £10k per club per season?
