MartinBSN Posted August 25, 2023 Report Share Posted August 25, 2023 Didn’t Poole (and many other clubs) spend the beginning of the season chasing Keynan Rew, a rider that would have initially come in on a 5.00 in both leagues? Would there have been uproar then?! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the posts I've seen from Poole fans seem to accept they've been out manouvered. Anyway it will all be decided on track at the end of the day. Exactly! Not a lot fans can do about it. May as well just crack on with it. Not like we can win it every year, won last two and good that end of season has 4 very competitive teams at least, plus Scunny if they can up their form slightly.

Weeyin Posted August 25, 2023 Report Share Posted August 25, 2023 Glasgow have strengthened up, however that doesn't mean we will win the league, also we don't know how long Ace will be out, we have a habit of capitulating, it would be nice to win though, been a long time.

Right time to strap on the tin helmet for the inevitable Poole attack. We have to avoid each other in the group of death first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He may come in on his actual average converted as I believe it’s slightly lower than 4. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nickinho Posted August 25, 2023 Report Share Posted August 25, 2023 Don't worry Tigers fans, even with the strongest team in the Championship after the Tarasenko signing, Cammy will still find a way to lose the Final 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinny Posted August 25, 2023 Report Share Posted August 25, 2023 An absolutely ridiculous rule/loophole but fair play to Glasgow for going for it. Rules are there to be bent as Poole fans well know. whoever decided that assessed averages in both leagues should be the same needs to give their head a wobble. either way, go on the Tigers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I don’t know what he’s on before anyone says it but doesn’t take a rocket scientist to work out an extraliga rider is going to be riding in the championship for a championship rate.

corfe pirate Posted August 25, 2023 Report Share Posted August 25, 2023 Don't think the Pirates fans have got their nickers in a twist over this signing at all. I've seen no real evidence of it on here so far. (That may change should we loose to the Tigers in the final).. The rider was available for any team to sign and on that average is a real steal. Congratulations Tigers on what looks like a great bit of business. I do agree with others that the rules themselves are an arse and need looking at. Now how can we get Lindback into our lineup? .
