He hinted at a return to British Speedway - I don’t recall him hinting at Poole.  He did also say it was dependent on a visa which he hasn’t looked into.  I’m not sure he would be eligible to get a visa currently either.

He hinted at Poole in the paper.

Chris holder hinting at a Poole return in 2020, that would be brilliant news 

Think he will be back.

If he gets the work visa then I guess he'll be back for Poole - depending on what the league set-up, race days and points limits are for next season?!

Also it will depend on what reduction on his 7.16 average MF or DF can negotiate?!;):rolleyes::t:

Yeah hopefully he will be back and would get a amazing reception still loved by most fans and most are sympathetic to his personal issues.

 

Any idea when or if Richie will be back or are we still scouring the world for a replacement?

Richie is giving an update to MF before the 28th.  As DF and Middlo have both stated there is no easy (or cheap?) replacement available within Richie's average which would improve things. There may be a lower averaged rider that could mean Nico going to 2, which isn't ideal either!

Ok thanks for that but he can come back after the 28th as he has been injured, is that correct? I see THJ is getting some reasonable scores lately, could be an option. Just can't see r/r being a good option for the play offs.

Correct.  For any foreign rider to come over now its the costs of air fares, mechanics, vans in addition to points money/guarantees that make it prohibitive at the moment.

Ok thanks possibly Josh Auty maybe best option from the championship but as you said earlier that would mean Covatti riding at 2.
