K3Scotty Posted July 11, 2019 Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 This is a poor show from Poole. The boys and girls in the youth championship are the future of British speedway. Hopefully, people will turn out this weekend at Kings Lynn to support it. What a shame that the so called "champions" can't honour the agreement made at the AGM....Good old Poole...... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poole have never given anything back to speedway, it's Poole first, second, third and fourth and if there's anything left over, that as well. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sings4Speedway Posted July 12, 2019 Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 Poor poor form from Poole. Im assuming they will be offering another date up asap as if they are allowed to renegade on a commitment made by all top flight clubs there should be consequences. Maybe they should pay the running costs at another track? If this is allowed unpunished what incentive is there for any club to host rounds in the future (other than the few who are not blinkered and short sighted). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GWC Posted July 12, 2019 Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 Interesting that Ford has come out for one league as he has calculated that he could keep Kurtz and Holder so long as their averages remain low. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ray c Posted July 12, 2019 Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 I thought matt said earlier that this was his last season come what may if true not sure what happens to poole speedway after that ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poole keith Posted July 12, 2019 Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 need to keep speedway at wimborne rd continuously, a break of even one season would create big planning problems youd think. Matt is still a massive poole fan so im sure will do his best for the club, however it appears no one is going to pay anywhere near his reported asking prices maybe have to "give it away" and sell as many assets as possible to whoever 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Shovlar Posted July 12, 2019 Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 Very unfortunate that the meeting has been cancelled but if it meant losing money that’s the only option. I wouldn’t attend and neither would hundreds of others, meaning a minuscule crowd with the rent remaining the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you not think the clubs that have already held them didn’t lose money on it then?. What a total lack of interest in British speedway the owners of Poole have shown. How you can even defend this is beyond me as it’s one of the very reasons the sport is on its knees. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
