Pirates 2014

I am still unsure that both Darcy and Chris will be in the Pirates 2014 side

that could massively hurt Poole. its not that difficult to manage a side with 2 of the best 6 riders in the world in it. But take one away and im not sure Middlo has the skills to do it.

well said. the guy has an ego on a massive scale. bit like Batchelor in that respect. Both not as good as they think they are.

 

Poole should build around the turbo twins thats obvious. You may as well go with Janowski. Josh will step into the top 5 and Howarth at reserve.

Just need to get the other 2 right and Poole will be thereabouts again.

 

As proven this season having Ward and Holder doesnt guarantee you winning matches if the back up is poor. Look at the start of the season.

Your obsession with all things Poole is not healthy, unless you are a secret Pirate waiting to come out... :D

not quite! its not an obsession just genuine comments on Poole side for next season and no bashing lol.

 

ive also posted on Eastbourne, Swindon, Lakeside, Newcastle, Redcar and obviously Ipswich threads in the last few days.

as well as Grand Prix ones, wild cards, horse racing and Holly and Fearne lol

 

Thing is people choose not to look at other teams threads. Im a speedway fan so like to discuss and debate.

I await the chosens ones reply lol

Yes but its the end of the season that counts!!! Having previously said that I doubted whether any of this year's top 3 would be in the 2014 team, I reckon that now Tai has become World Champion that may persuade the BSPA to change what they had previously been moving towards and maybe allow 1 GP rider (or 8+ point rider) per team - assuming of course that clubs can afford them or that the GP riders need British Speedway enough to take massive pay cuts!!

I dont know that much so i dont know how realistic this is but how about:

 

1. Chris Holder 9.23

2. Josh Grajczonek 4.48

3. Greg Hancock 8.77

4. Rohan Tungate 4.59

 

5. Darcy Ward 9.07

6. Ashley Birks 3.06

7. Sam Masters 3.30

 

Probably really unrealistic but there you go.

Have the riders that Poole have already signed Josh, Kyle going to double up or ride full time in the Elite ? Do Poole know the new points limit ?

absolutely correct and thats why Matt Ford is good for Poole as he made the right changes

I know for a fact that after Matt's done celebrating tonight, He will be up 1st thing in the morning looking at a potential 2014 team.

 

Dedication and commitment.

 

You surprise me being so excited about Poole. I thought that you were a Peterborough supporter? :icon_smile_clown:

When did Matt Ford tell you of his plans for Wednesday morning? That's a real scoop of information.

Once we've finished building our team we'll tell the rest of the league what the points limit is :)

 

Its nice to see a Poole fan with a sense of humour.

Well done to Poole , they didn't sit back and ask for sympathy when their main men got injured ,they got off their a*se and did something about it.While the Belle Vue debacle did not help the sport ,they just took advantage of the situation.

 

No mention of the Poole / Lakeside debacle ? :D :D

Josh has said he needs one more year in PL. I would imagine Kyle would be riding in PL too.

Kyle will have to stay PL to supplement himself when in about april/may the Sky regular that is Matt drops him again tactically moves him aside for the good of the club........ :blink::party:

Don't know how you can say that Gav. Providing we can keep either Darcy or Chris, it won't affect us as a club..

It won't. We've been riding for most of the season with just one of them cos of injuries! But how would you choose between them i just don't know!!

Ask me to choose 1, as much as I like Chris as a rider, I would choose Darcy..
