I thought he did well for us last year and I would have loved to have seen him back. Good luck in your career Danyon. Expand It's his reward for having a good season, served his purpose & out.

My concern is if it's a marketing ploy rather than trying to pin down a major signing. Ford will see us right Expand Who is gonna buy a season ticket with no team news though. Not many imo.

daz9100 Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 Surely you buy a season ticket because you want to go to speedway, surely it doesn't depend on who's riding? Do you think that we won't have a competitive team? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daz9100 Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 Season tickets aren't on sale yet. Need confirmation from AGM to how many meets will happen to set the price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Shovlar Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 Basso to Glasgow next. If they can’t beat us, they try to buy the Poole team to try and replicate. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think that we won't have a competitive team? Expand Matter of opinion I guess. You may think it is competitive and I may disagree. People think different things. I have noticed on SM when other clubs have announced signings and ST go on sale if it is a strong team, you will have good ST sales. Unless you go every week and not mind saving much on them (unless Poole are doing a reasonable discount compared to just paying each week) then some people will wait imo.

SteveLyric2 Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 Whether the team is announced or not it seems sponsors are still keen with a previous big sponsor back on board plus a new one to add to the list (ex-Plymouth apparently?) 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utter BS Expand Scrapheap? Do me a favour! I was at the meeting when Matt Ford said he really wanted to keep Basso for 2022 but knew it would be difficult. One of the reasons we moved down was to get Weds nights back again, so hardly going to change it again for one rider and even if we were prepared to, what night would be allowed to race on? I'm guessing Hume prob was in the team before someone else decided to leave Plymouth. Might have had to choose between Hume and Ben Cook? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Ben is 5.31 and maybe they prefer to squeeze him in to the team? We could be on team L now considering how long it is taking and I am sure Hume would have featured in one of the teams at some point. But you are definitely underestimating how much Poole wanted to keep Basso. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Season tickets aren't the target for most clubs. In fact the more they sell, the less money they make! Season tickets knock money off per meeting remember so selling a full stadium worth is no good. They're simply a tactic to gain some money to survive the winter and pay signing on fees etc. I'd imagine enough Poole faithful will buy them regardless of team to top up the pot 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
