So which rider will Matt announce first at Wednesday's fan REF quiznight?

Bjerre I would think.

Bearing in mind Rosco and Morris are like surrogate father and son, if there is any doubt about the track changes then one would think Rosco would be 100% up front with all the riders!!

Any good reason why he wouldn't?

Shanes should have a 2.5% reduction.

Josh G has to get a Premiership place somewhere as he can't double-down now that he rides on a Polish licence.

If MF is 'struggling' financially due to not having a main sponsor, then I would expect a 1-7 of Poole assets!!

Still not replied to Wolves??? Tsk Tsk.

Thought this thread was about the stadium - not the riders/team for 2019?!

When Matt and the 'volunteers' were at the track to take the air fence down for the winter, he stated that with everything Chris Holder had had to put up with in the past year it would be highly unlikely that he would race UK this coming year. Not sure whether the visa issue is still a [problem?

Matt's comments in the Echo today just about nail it!!

Can't see any major signings being announced or confirmed until a new Main Sponsor is in place!!!

Quaking in our boots!!!!! In what will almost certainly be Matt Ford's last season, 2019 should be another great one - for Poole!!

Ellis has acontract in the Ekstraliga with Stal Gorzow

Good Friday is exempt! Because its all about the money.

OK I'll bite. Maybe you should read your own Dale Allitt's comments as to what happened and who instigated it. Lynn did nothing wrong just something a bit stupid!!

Maybe its more about looking forward than looking back?!

But if a particular sponsor (or two) pick up the cost of the trip from their annual financial commitment to the club, then its down to them who is invited to go!!

Well at least in 2019 there won't be any Olympics, World Cup or Euro football to interrupt fixtures. And with many clubs not starting til April (with Easter late next April) rather than March, maybe fewer rain -offs as well.

Just to extend the 'provocation' a bit further and in order to fully thank the whole 'team' then maybe track officials, volunteers and fans should have been invited also?!

Wolves gave permission for 2018!!

Maybe because some sponsors paid some of their sponsorship monies based on results rather than all at the start of the season, hence monies being available at the end of the season rather than the beginning!!

Maybe talking with another club??!

....and Poole Sponsors. ps One of the younger Ford clan may well be one of the new club Co-Promoters??!!

Not applicable. Several of the 2018 regs have been dropped and don't apply to 2019. Chris Holder is very unlikely to ride UK in 2019 according to what I've been told.
