I'm pretty sure Rosco and Swindon would have something to say about that!? :nono:

Don't thing Rosco & Swindon would really be in a position to moan after the way they've treated Ash somehow if Nick says sorry but I'm signing for a Thursday club in the Premier Lge & want to move to Poole.

 

Clubs look after themselves so can't have it both ways if riders do the same.

I see Swindon have dumped Ashley Birks, just imagine the reaction if Poole had done that.

To be dumped you need to be included the declared 1-7 - which he wasn't. As much as I like Ashley, he should be starting as a reserve - as he didn't show he was anything other than a reserve this season. It's bonkers that he needs to start in a 1-5 position. I think this is the right decision - and hopefully a better rider will be signed

So you don't think if Poole had promised him a place for 2014, we wouldn't be criticised for not offering a young british rider a team place.

Well I'm not one for jumping on Poole for not signing young British talent! You did offer a young British lad a team spot (2 actually) except one should be in the 1-5 just like Birks is expected to do :wink:
