naffer Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 And allegedly the ones who's promotor was against Ellis's average being recalculated. But this would have been voted on ,so not the only promoter against it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pirates Of Poole Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 (edited) Think also the Danish fixture clashes were an issue too! Edited November 20, 2016 by Pirates Of Poole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve0 Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 (edited) This has just been put on the official poole pirates forum. Interestingly enough, I've heard that Bjerre was on the verge on signing for the Pirates but was offered more money by Coventry (who apparently were the main supporters of the cost cutting measures!)[/size] And here were all of us thinking that if Poole wanted a rider, that rider was overwhelmed at the honour of riding for Poole and would jump at the chance - apparently not!

poolebolton Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 View from left field here but any chance of Leon Madsen riding for us again. Hasn't got a Swedish club yet that I know of. Came 5th in SEC last year which isn't bad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bjarne almost ready to sign up for the bees until Fraud steps in.( Not that it would have helped the bees if he had signed up .) Can't believe Horton has offered more cash for Bjerre anyhow.

GWC Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 Isn't the loss of Poole's main sponsor going to cause issues with rider affordability? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aces51 Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 It never ceases to amaze me that someone reports something they have heard/been told by some unnamed source and then others take it as gospel and comment on it as if it were a fact. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waiheke1 Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 Bjerre is a spent force these days. Can't imagine a bidding war unless it was Ford offering more money for Bjerre to go to Coventry instead.Bjerre was in excellent form last year, one of the top 20 riders in the world in 2016 imo.One of the few riders in the league capable of maintaining or improving their starting average. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

g13webb Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 Kenneth Bjerre is a seasoned professional who has been unlucky with a lot of his injuries.. Yes!, he may be suspect in close racing, especially racing riders he don't trust. But KB has 3 attributes, worthy to get into many teams, He's an exceptional Gater, has real fast machinery, and when in front he's smooth and goes very quick. Any promoter would welcome him on his average, and that includes Matt Ford..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
