If you are so concerned with Poole's future you might try reading all the reasons Poole lost money last year. And yet a month ago you reassured everyone: On 10/11/2019 at 12:24 PM, Skidder1 said: Poole will be in the top league again in 2020. Their existing (and new?) sponsors and the probability of a new TV contract will certainly support this. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are so concerned with Poole's future you might try reading all the reasons Poole lost money last year. They are well documented even for those on some sort of twisted wind up. Terry Russell has already changed his 2020 budget several times to try to find ways of replacing the income from 2 lost Poole home meetings F***ing hell you've posted some sh*t on this forum but that's right up there, it's been 10 yrs since Poole brought a following that couldn't be accommodated on a skateboard and since the days of Ward and Holder the additional home fans can be counted on one hand, I for one won't miss the Poole 'Pisstaking' Pirates one iota from the top league.
