Poole 2018


Recommended Posts

The wheels seem to be falling off at Poole...

I would be frankly stunned if Holder manages to ride in the UK this season, don’t know why Ford just doesnt announce the truth. 

Martin Smolinski? Lol. Reeks of desparation.

How on earth, with that line up on paper, have they managed to stuff it all up!? Should be smashing teams out of sight!

thought Sundstrom would be a fine signing but obvs not, he has been rubbish. 

Hard to see what Ford can do to reshuffle this side if Smolinski is the be best he can come up with from abroad!

What are you talking about you dunce? We're bottom of the league, we quite literally can't do any worse. How is trying something different in any way desperation? I know plenty of promoters would be content giving up and being pleased with a couple of hundred stragglers coming through the gates but we've actually got some class down in Poole and we don't give up at the first sign of trouble. 

That's easily fixed, just turn it upside down! :D

Just to be clear the Smolinski talks are for short term cover for Kildermand who has finished his temporary cover for Chris Holder. Chris' situation is partially explained in the Speedy Star this week. (Apologies if this has already been stated!!)

Smolinski wouldn't be a bad signing at all. Some people on this thread talk like Britain is still a worthy league that can do better than Smolinski :rofl::rofl: Get real mate, we've only got the Aussies over here so they don't have to learn Polish.

I agree its hard to find riders who want to ride here......but Smolinski for Kildemand is an awful move

Hopefully is a short term thing untill Chris sorts things out. Its not been a good start for us, not what we wanted.

I understand that totally and the Holder issue , wether he was back to his best or not, has caused Poole problems this year.

Kildemand shown in flashes what he can do but surely Poole fans cant be happy with Smolinski

For those of us who don't get the star, are you allowed to enlighten us?? If it is to do with his son etc., he has my greatest sympathy.

You got to admit kildermand  hasn't done the biz can't see smolinski being any worse. unless Poole start winning this season will be poorer than last year imo

Of course Smolinski isn't the answer but Kildermand hasn't exactly set the world alight has he. We all want Holder back but it seems he has messed up his chance of a visa for the time being.

Kildemand has been absolute pants. Either missing the gate by a mile or chosing wrong lines or someone farts in the crowd and he falls off. Been abysmal cover for Holder.

Smolinski is no answer but being used as a stop gap. You never know he might suprise us and put another rider out of a job.

Kildermand had good scores in his first 3 meetings and Poole fans all wanted him to stay , now you fickle lot want him gone!

He has been far from abysmal and dont forget he is riding in a poor team which will drain confidence to.

Smolinski for Kildemand is quite simply shocking. He was awful in 2013 and he hardly getting better.

If you think he is a better option than PK im astounded.

The Holder issue is destroying Pooles season...............will he ever ride over here this year?
