Cook, Basso, Z. Cook & Kemp + a third HL Basso deal didn't happen which lead to the top heavy 1-7 with a long tail containing Steve, King & Lawson. A bit off the mark 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember Josh Auty saying on the centre Green at the old dog bowl a fair few years ago, when he was "on then way up" as a potential star of the future that he would "love to ride for the Aces next season".... Must have meant as a guest..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not my point though. You have completely missed it. If I was Orion I would be going whhhhoooosssshhh right now. But I'm not, so I won't. The point was someone thinking Basso hasn't said it and I'm pointing out that it has been said he did. Whether he was lying or telling the truth at the time is a different matter.

Even if Basso had said he wanted to return to Poole, unless a contract has been signed, riders (and clubs) can change their minds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but that is a completely different point. The point I was making is whether he said it in the first place! He obviously changed his mind lol.

Which is kinda annoying, having to work out if they mean it or not! Always respected Scott Nicholls for saying 'we'll see... ' when he got asked at Poole (long long time ago that was!)

Much easier and he probably gets a few beers in the bar as a result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time I went to Wimbourne Road I told the car park attendant that I would be back next year. Haven’t been for three years, so he’s probably yet another person at Poole that thinks he has been stitched up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit of bad example to use when whoever pays £2.50 ?? to use a car park for speedway has prob been stitched up themselves! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
