Hmm, I think we will have to put Harris as a possibility. He's put that race up from last year's SF on Twitter. And has said previously he looks forward to coming back to Poole. Not many away riders say that! 

Mainly the ex Motocross riders.

I'm aware of that - I only mentioned Middleditch as he was referred to in the original post.  

Is that alright ? Bloody ell..  

Its 'Arnie' Middlo that is quoted in the local Echo today, He does say WE are already putting the 2020 team together , so 'We'll be back'!!;):t:.

chris yes jack no jack has not settled this season 

Assuming money is still tight, I honestly can't see Ford letting both Kurtz & Jack Holder go. Bearing in mind both are assets so Poole get first choice.

IF Chris Holder is allowed back then Ford faces a difficult decision of perhaps which one of the above does he loan out. Assuming that is he were to retain Klindt and Josh G.

Having said that who says he won't maybe sacrifice one of those last 2 in order to keep both Holders and Kurtz. Even if conventional logic from many fans is that Klindt and Josh G should be the first names on the team sheet for 2020.

They can get lost with that idea! Josh and Nic in first, and if that means not being able to keep Brady or Jack, then tough. They should go.

I really thought that jack would become an out and out no1 but he failed far short on that score. so I do think he will return to somerset next season providing they are in the top flight   cant see klindt being anywhere but poole same with josh . hopefully nico will return as well but not poole asset .

Some people may recall that MF stated in the Winter 2018/19 off season that if Chris and Jack Holder wanted to ride together at any track other than Poole then that club would have to buy them rather than loan them. Whilst the feeling may be a little different now regarding Jack, I would think its still very much the view about CH.

Of course, any promoter interested in CH, or any Poole asset, should just invoke Miedzinski’s Law, which I’m sure you recall was a Swindon asset, wanted by his own club, however, Poole rode roughshod over that promotions wishes because he was on an extremely attractive average. By the time you’d used and abused the asset, with Poole paying only a loan fee, he was more or less worthless and rode part of a season on an over inflated average never to be seen in the UK again. 

I respectfully would argue if CH, or any Poole asset, can agree a contract elsewhere, then all you’ll be entitled to will be a loan fee.

If Poole wanted to challenge a self employed riders status, as an asset, I look forward to Matt taking it to the relevant authority.

Ha ha still smarts a bit then?!  Different BSPA MC nowadays and I can't believe MF riding 'roughshod' over Terry Russel or whoever the promoter was then, Gary somebody was it?

Exactly.

Riders will ride where they want irregardless of who owns their contract. The Miedzinski ruling. :t:

Can he stop them earning a living, and refuse to loan them ?

He won't be stopping them earning a living - they'll have jobs in Poland, Sweden etc.

As far as CH is concerned it may well depend on which club supports/sponsors his visa/work permit application - and I know who has done the majority of the paperwork up to now!!!!:approve:

In reality no and I think if he tried it would be the end of this whole ridiculous asset system we have, Riders will ride where riders want to ride and rightly so, sooner we have a system where riders are treated as self employed who can sign contracts year to year and are free to move outside of those contracts the better
