ray c Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 I wonder if there will be a place for James Shane's (if fit ) in the Poole line up next season .he would be useful to have .it will also be nice to see a lot of the younger riders learning there trade riding at no 6 or 7 .before they move on to the bigger clubs . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure that Swindon would like all their apprentices learning their trade on the bumpy Poole track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His interview in the Speedway Star a couple of weeks ago suggested he is going back to Brummies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ADDING THIS are the muppets in charge trying to increase the number if riders available for next year by killing off the NL and therefore making less clubs and more riders to fill two leagues or even one big league for the future ,therefore keeping theme selves in employment ? shame .........

The National League run their own business and are not dictated too by the BSPA so any additions/ withdrawals are made by the club's concerned.

jenga Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 (edited) Are the rules the same or is there something very different about the way its run , apart from having nothing to do with the bspa , five laps , clockwise or maybe two stroke engines . but its good to see the bspa sending kids over to aus in winter to get some grooming for their leagues , innit ?

The only thing the extra number of teams might change is the points limit which is why Poole aren't announcing riders yet.

Pinny Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 Be good to see Shovvys posts in this section, shame Newport aren’t running anymore !!! sadly, he will bring the dross out of the Poole threads with him like Lisa the full time mummy and Skidmark . Not to mention Starman. 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pirates Of Poole Posted October 30, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 I think with the potential of 14 clubs, there isn’t enough top riders around. The only way I can see this working is the points limit increases, to allow some top riders being able to double up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the same process every year. However all i'm saying is that with more teams now declaring there might be a change. If there is it won't be majorly significant to stop a club from starting to offer rider contracts - especially to get your heat leaders sorted!
