Am asking as with the loss of the main team sponsor plus in his words 1/2 other smaller sponsors not renewing, if there are sufficient sponsors left to warrant having one and the cost no doubt associated. Believe Matt in past years also used the opportunity to name riders for the following season which also generated interest. I thought Skidder said it was on 12/14th Dec...?

Thought I saw similar on the forum but no rider announcements. In the past there has been a lot of high profile, but maybe this year played down in view of the not so positive situation on the Sponsor front ?? Wonder when our last 4 riders will be announced and if Matt will make any formal announcements on why (if rumours are to be believed) that those 2 exciting young riders Woryna & Jakobsen were not resigned. Seen plenty of comments on forum and twitter that Woryna is down to not enough money on offer compared to his big deal in Poland but Jakobsen ?? No doubt more will be said when team news appears. Hopefully before xmas if the 7 are already known which many seem to think they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But cos of AFCB, earliest now will prob be Tues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INCOGNITO Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 Strange 1-7 and no Woryna who can improve on 6.30 but maybe it's not their choice. Two solid reserves in Covati and Allen and in Holder and Kurtz they have two that are moving up well. Klindt and Grajczoneck steady back up with Worrall possibly dropping to reserve mid season. Would expect a change or two mid season to keep them in play offs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavan Posted December 17, 2018 Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 Seems that Poole wont have the best reserve pairing in the league after seeing Peterboroughs Rasmus Jensens name been bandied about but a risk seeing as the only tracks he has seen are Ipswich and Peterborough i think but he flew at Foxhall all be it from number 7 but he is a fast gater which may help. Surely Poole wont get rid of Woryna? We were told he was a future GP star this time last season and now he is not staying? Also strange that Jacobsen isnt wanted either did very well in his first season can only get better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also strange that Jacobsen isnt wanted either did very well in his first season can only get better Woryna too expensive. He was one of the highest earning riders in the world last year. 35K signing on bonus at Rybnik alone. Fred was a numbers game. Spoke to him recently and exactly the same as Harris.

Suggest you look at the SGB website and Workington's results for October (open the individual match score sheets) IF RJ starts the way his results read for Oct he could be a very clever signing on his 4.39 GSA (converted from his Champ GSA). Assuming it was RJ from reading the various comments on the forum. Looks like he improved as season went on and at just turned 25 maybe he could flourish. At reserve could be a decent option.

I think that is a massive if! You have to ask why isn't his average higher if he is so good.He could be a good signing but the jury is still out in my opinion.. For me Peterborough have built a strength in depth side and their reserves look much stronger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems as though he might have got his way.

If you mean Harris then Im sure quite a few Glasgow fans would say he effectively didnt turn up a number of times..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
