If Poole get Wednesdays back they will stay up. Can't get Weds in PL though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You and Shov are in the minority, that's why CL has been applied for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speedtiger Posted October 17, 2019 Report Share Posted October 17, 2019 It’s a brave move by MF but also clearly a desperate one with the club losing a serious lump of cash....it could be the last roll of the dice. I hope it pays off but no guarantee it will. Don’t think it will be the only bit of big news in the coming weeks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R87 Posted October 17, 2019 Report Share Posted October 17, 2019 5 hours ago, Odds On said: another nail in the so called top tier of British speedway, arguably one if not the best away supported teams in the league. This whole situation sums up the whole "fly by the seat of their pants" attitude of British speedway. If Poole drop down, the BSPA will scramble and try and coax some teams up from the Championship to make the numbers. While they continue to desperately prop up the league. Its short-term, quick fixes all the time, which you can only get away with for so long 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
semion Posted October 17, 2019 Report Share Posted October 17, 2019 (edited) Poor old Middlo. He gets his benefit meeting the same year as Ford takes the club down a level with smaller crowds.

89buttons Posted October 17, 2019 Report Share Posted October 17, 2019 2 hours ago, Steve Shovlar said: Clearly the near £40,000 shortfall from losing the main sponsor had a serious affect in finances. Add to that no money from TV and BT wanting to show us at every opportunity also added to the attendances. We were moaning a couple of seasons ago about there being only 9 teams. The league should never have run with 7. A change should have been made last winter. It will be a very sad day if Middlo is calling it quits. Best manager the club has ever had and impossible to replace a speedway man with a wealth of experience. It was £20000 the other day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CountyGround Posted October 17, 2019 Report Share Posted October 17, 2019 7 hours ago, Bald Bloke said: Until it happens, i'll take Poole dropping down with a pinch of salt. It could well be a way for Ford to try and get what he wants. Either to force the sale the club or change race nights. How do we know if the poll result to drop down is genuine. It night be made up to ad weight to Ford saying he's dropping down, making some think it's serious enough to act. I hope Buster don't buy them, it will affect Lynn again no doubt.. If he wants to move down then let him do it I say. I agree! I believe Matt wants top league Speedway BUT with Wednesday night home meetings just playing games to get there......... Thuth is the whole of G.B. speedway is in a mess with the double ups & downs etc, etc, needs a complete re-think, unfortunately it will never happen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
