I would think Zmarzlik would be looking for some pretty solid financial guarantees after what happened at Birmingham - so I guess it won't be him then?!

What has this got to do with 'Poole 2015'?

He posted a photo (in reverse) of himself in the Wroclaw pits in last years Poole kevlars with the caption 'And again'! Some are saying its simply back on a speedway bike again - others are saying its 'back at Poole'!!

We don't know - maybe, maybe not?! Depends on what comes out in the statements (FIM and Ward's) and whether there are still any questions to be asked/answered. I guess an indication of that will be whether Ward decides to appeal based on what the statement says.

But we don't know all the reasoning because the FIM have not yet published it!!! (As stated on the Poole thread - read the FIM statement again.) The punishment of 'only 10 months backdated' may be because there were some other factors? As I've said right from the outset I do not condone his stupidity - but everyone is entitled to a fair hearing, with all the circumstances being aired and published so that unbiased comment can be made. And Darcy has '21 days from the date of the full reasoned CDI decision' to appeal if required.

Quite correct Baz, as has been pointed out previously. That 6.66 is a devil of an average to fill!!!

I think this forum demonstrates that on a daily basis!! suggest you read the FIM's original statement again!!

Not forgetting that the FIM still have to make their follow-up statement giving the reasons as to how/why they reached their verdict!! That statement will have to be made within the 45 days from the hearing, ie. within the next 2 weeks,.

Not enough points left for Shamek!!

Darcy will have a temporary job of Assistant Team Manager and Non-riding Captain!! No issue with visa!

Good choice, but he can't be used for double points!!!

Ah 20 years time - that'll be when Tai has gone home to Oz I guess.

Might be at Poole yet?!

If Rob Lyon chose Coventry then he's less of a good manager than I thought. The Bees were the 'form' team with no injury worries going into the play-offs - hence they got to the final!

Quite right FB, to win the play-offs a team has to beat 2 of the other 3 teams. Poole beat Kings Lynn and Coventry. job done. end of.

All that I and others have said is that MF had/has at least 3 team options - that is not opinion, it is quoting what MF said at the fans forum!! One was Holder/Ward and a PL double-upper. One was Holder/Janowski and another (likely to be Gomolski from his own comments!!) and one with Holder and 2 x 5+point/6+ point riders (possibly assets)! Various names were mentioned in the same interview, including those riders that represented Poole in the World Speedway League. I have since learned that there may be a 4th option involving another Poole asset. Whatever final details need to be 'given full attention' will be better concluded when MF is back in the UK office - ie from today - with access to all his info!!

Hasn't he got rid of all his UK equipment (after deciding not to ride UK in 2015) so will probably need a loan or something to get himself ready to go?!

Nice try. I especially like the CSI reference. By the way, how old are you??

Just for a moment I thought you were talking about many of the post(er)s on the forum?! Silly me!!

He rode for himself in the individual meeting(s).

On the piste during the day - pissed off piste in the evening.

What is in black and white as you put it makes no reference to any club - its a statement about Ward!

If its on the BSF it must be right then!! Check the final 2014 averages on the BSPA website - Pedersen 7.38. and as has been stated Wozniak is 5.50. No room for Shamek on 6.75 but there are other Poole assets that might become available after Poole declare their 1-7. But Leicester will have to ask permission from MF very nicely - just in case he asks for Bjarne back??!!

Keep up - check the website!!! Skiing in the Alps I believe. Lots of riders do the same I gather!

Man Utd suspended Cantona for something he did whilst playing for Man Utd - entirely different to the Ward situation, so stop stirring.
