Red Panda Posted March 4, 2015 Report Share Posted March 4, 2015 It's funny how people are reading too much into my comments I was referring more in general to signing riders this winter. The situation at Poole has complicated other clubs team building plans as rightly or wrongly Poole have not been keen to allow other clubs to speak to their assets and riders who rode for them last season until they knew what was happening with their own team. As Matt Ford has said previously he and Middlo have had 2 or 3 different teams in mind but i understand have finally settled on their team. Spot on.............I have known all the way along there were at least 4 options either with or without DW.................Its not so much us Poole fans here but other club fans jumping to conclusions..............as to what may or may not happen at Poole..........my comments were made purely to point out that the other poster could well be way off the mark in their thoughts...............

scottyfan Posted March 4, 2015 Report Share Posted March 4, 2015 I would expect to hear team news in the next 24 hours. I expect you are wrong!!! With just two weeks to press day, Poole will just have Watt,North and Newman on show at this moment in time, as Starke won't be there anyway and Holder doesn't yet have a visa!!!

Pirates Of Poole Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 I expect you are wrong!!!

Who's to say Holder has now got a new 3 year visa? The team is sorted so don't worry. Matt will announce it at the right time to maximise exposure.

SteveLyric2 Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 If Leicester are to confirm their final rider on Saturday morning (as stated) then maybe expect Poole's announcement later today or tomorrow. Unless MF waits until there's less AFC Bournemouth news in the local Echo?! With AFC Bournemouth playing Friday night on Sky, then the local rag will have previews and reports/pics on Friday/Saturday, MF may wait til Monday.

Pirate Baz Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 What's causing the delay? It seems everyone knows the two riders. Maybe Magic is not happy with the thought that he might have to make way for Darcy in July and wants a full season? Think the majority of speedway fans would support him in that situation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pirates Of Poole Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 There are no problems at all. Matt will announce the final 2 riders as when he wants do, the riders in question know who they are and are currently sorting machinery out for the coming British season.

There will be a transatlantic telephone call to the Echo/ Media/ BSPA et al at the appropriate time........! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamish McRaker Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Who is affected by visa issues? Non-Europeans! If he isn't Australian then the visa situation is irrelevant! Every rider is affected by visa issues when it comes to building teams!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INCOGNITO Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Think they could be missing out on Milik not returning and I hope he gets a chance elsewhere later in the season.

A man had his hat blown off whilst walking on the seafront and the chippy ran out of jumbo sausages so the speedway news could get bumped again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
