Think it was quite a while out and was a serious injury. Only raced after the injury for the first time that season in Aug 2020. Bearing in mind when POL finishes meant he near enough missed most of that season.

Yes it did hamper his initial progress but stayed in POL I believe, and really showed the potential was there both in the initial POL EXL U24 season just gone for Leszno his parent club plus in about 7 meetings for his loaned out Lge1 Club Krosno. Odd meetings in DK as well I believe.

That's what makes him look so attractive in our Champ on a 5 GSA. 

I wouldn`t call 9 meetings for Region Varde in 2022 odd meetings.

Tbf though not like they need to ride Championship especially if they have a Prem place. Or they could have priced themselves out? Especially if they know Glasgow are sniffing around :D

Glasgow sniffing around, what do you mean :nono:

Rew just seems to have enough on his plate with plenty going on and flying in and out of the country. Not quite sure if adding Championship fixtures on top appeals all that much. Could well be wrong but we’ll see. 

Tbh unless he wants the extra meetings prob not much point for him.

It means that we have a cocaine problem in Glasgow.

Out of curiosity Arthur but why do you view my profile every 2-3 days , it hasn’t changed in 12 years so unlikely to change now.

All these people who seem to be in know who is or isn't going where are you just guessing of Do you really have contacts and are Glasgow " sniffing around " if these chaps the Aussie 2 are not going to Poole because of a better offer then good riddance and enjoy winning not much to a good chance of winning something at Poole but they may well not do our league so all hypothetical.

Do you REALLY think the riders are in it for the trophies more than the money?…….Oh dear!…..

I reckon and I don't know but I would have thought Poole would pay a decent wage packet and with that comes with a good chance of winning trophies and you may earn a few more £'s at somewhere else in our league and win f*** a** I suppose you would have to ask the riders what they would rather do but I reckon they would rather be in a winning team than not but who knows maybe you're right but having played sport all my life when you win its better than losing

Your reply is bang on, the riders need to make a living and even an extra £10 a point can make  a massive difference over a season they also have to take travel time to their home track into consideration for example if a rider lived in Doncaster, rode for Sheffield in the PL and Scunthorpe in the Championship he gets to spend a lot more time with his family than if he rode for say Ipswich and Glasgow it also means fewer nights in hotels and less diesel in his van.  Above all riders need to be happy on a home track that they ride well with a good promotion who will back them if their form drops.  Its a dangerous sport with a short career and when the time comes to hang up the kevlars what matters most is how much money is in the bank not how many trophies are on the mantlepiece

Good pay which is delivered on time is all they are really bothered about, as well as help with digs/a workshop and transport for those without a set up in the UK already. Trophies are just a bonus, although going deep into competitions obviously means more meetings.
