Swindon 2018


Recommended Posts

Would be a good start, if it is him or a rider starting with Z :t:

Not a bad guess.

Seriously great news and signings, two riders who did well this year and will improve next.

Two good riders we need in the team.

I wonder if like Poole Swindon are building up to a squad system for the future.

First Vaculik, now Ellis. Ford losing his touch. I thought Poole were the club everyone wants to ride for!!

Why are people shocked Ellis doesn't want to be at Poole after some of the comments made on here by his father (and quite understandable too!)

He is a Lakeside asset currently. Dont believe Poole signed him.

Quite right. As Adam's dad (Jonny the Spud for those that don't know) PM'd me over a month ago, the deal between Lakeside and Poole was agreed - but then Lakeside increased their price!!

 

MF never pays over the odds.

 

Incidentally, the Swindon statement says that neither Adam or Zach are confirmed in the Robins 1-7 yet!! As with most clubs the final line-ups will be down to the numbers adding up correctly!

That's some serious back pedalling there Skidder :)

 

Perhaps Swindon got a discount for buying both? Or perhaps.....just maybe....Adam had a straight choice between signing for Swindon or signing for Poole and chose the Club that showed a little faith in him in 2017.

Its not about faith its about numbers. Always has been always will be.

 

At the time it was a 'done deal' albeit verbally and was being openly discussed by several Poole sponsors, you know, the ones that still appeared prominently on his 2017 kevlars.

 

Maybe Jonny the Spud will confirm what he told me in his PM to me.

I'm only teasing :) you're not usually far off the mark to be fair when things finally pan out.

 

From what I've been told It was never a 'done deal', though a couple of sponsors may have thought it was going to happen. Fairly confident we'll see Adam in red and white for 2018.

There's so many people who are supposedly in the know. IF Adams dad did Pm you I'm sure he'll not be impressed with you quoting private messages on here !
