Don't you read any official news???

But wasn’t that lifted ? Someone told me a couple of days ago they saw him walking through Poole down towards the quay but I dismissed it as mistaken identity. Perhaps it was him after all.

I am really struggling to believe all you gullible lot on here.

if it is Skidder winding us all up then he better get on here asap and retract it. He has been close to some inside info ahead of others in the past but on this one I cant tell if he is pulling our leg or it has some substance behind it.

Come on Skidder let us know if this is an early April Fools joke ;-)

What a lot of tosh!  Skidder's obviously having a slow day and trying to cheer himself up.  Surprise, surprise that Lord fisherman jumped in to keep it going :rolleyes:

Don't think he is joking.

I did hear that Matt was trying to get his average down. That's why I put the original post up yesterday. Still expect Sundstrom and Shanes though.

He doesn't need to retract anything. We all know he gets some good info now and again but Matt Ford said himself in the paper he couldn't use him because of the rules so it is obviously  a wind up.

You already have 2 riders,one who's flying,who you got on a silly 4.5 ish 2016 ave.Another who had a 4 year old ave,that has improved, and have had his ave reduced.Fine if anyone could have the same.Either Ford is a mastermind and the rest are clueless !!

Not a mastermind, just better than the other tosh. Every year promoters vote on new rules to save money and hinder Poole, yet every year you all complain that Matt is smart enough to make the most of it. You should be whinging about your own lazy promoters.

If every year promotors vote to hinder Poole,he should be crowned Sir Matt Ford with what he pulls off in that case.

No, he should be crowned Sir actually uses his brain to try and make the most of the rules. It's not some sort of big conspiracy... many promoters are vocal about their views at the AGM and Matt often says about how he'd rather a different outcome. He didn't want the one rider over 8pts, and yet he's still built a solid team. That's why he's taken so long to announce his team. It's not like Matt had exclusivity over any of the riders he signed from Poland this season! He planned his team, explored his options, reached out to riders and made a proper effort of it. 

If it were up to Matt he'd have a higher points average and no silly restrictions. He worked to the rules the other promoters put in place, and so far he's given us a decent looking side. Nothing that anybody else couldn't have done first.
