The last line of the Poole statement about the Sundstrom signing states 'Poole fans will be excited to watch him on the Poole shale'!!

So aside from the actual signing, it seems we are to get some shale too!!:D:D:rolleyes:;)

Yes , i understand it's some of the latest 21st century stuff with a permanent blue line added .;)

Can someone explain why Sundstrom is on his old average of 7.22, why hasn't he got a reduction  reduction like Woryna?

Szczepeniak you mean? I was told Szczepeniak average was his last rolling average one and not a % reduction each year he missed.

Why would Sundstrom get a reduction? He hasn't missed any years.

Being absent from Britain does not equate to missing a year. The 8% reduction applies to riders who have been out of action due to injury for an entire year.

Some riders are better when they return so perhaps they should have an increased average. Poole now have 3 such riders which augers well as they ought to increase their starting averages considerably.

May as well drop the Pirate branding and go for a new nickname

Poole Campanologists has the right 'ring' to it ;)

As with every other season, more so in recent years, it's not how you start it's how you finish.  Speedway isn't raced on paper or expectation.

Can we just have the title now please. Only team who gets close to ours is Leicester.

No we have to deserve it. We have a very good side on paper, and 7 riders who are more than capable of increasing there averages.. But the most inportant thing in speedway is no injuries. we get that and we are stuffed, the same as any other team. if they all stay sound and improve like i would expect them to then we will take a lot of beating.

 a big thanks i would imagine  from all poole supporters to matt ford for assembling an excellent looking team for 2018,have to be clear favourites this yr,that said i thought the 2016,2017 teams were also excellent so what do i know?my only concern is that the apparent total lack of team spirit in the last 2yrs can be reversed this yr and also that there is a significant increase on last yrs crowd levels
