Give him a few weeks at beginning of season to settle in and be fine. I remember fans being worried about Lawson at beginning of 2022 lol.

Mike0310 Posted December 8, 2023 Report Share Posted December 8, 2023 Good signing Poole well done at least you name your riders when you say you will, I’ve been waiting for the 2 riders my team said they were announcing today don’t look like that’s happening maybe tomorrow but I don’t hold my breath.

Expand Maybe he sounded out Poole first not to say he didn't send to all and why wouldn't any rider who is looking to win trophies when you have been let go by your current employers and assume Matt and Dan must get loads of requests from riders looking to ride for the (big boys ) only kidding but was he not a heat leader at Glasgow then 2nd string when the 5pt new pole came in ( excellent bit of recruitment though ) now with a weaker league I have the feeling Glasgow have as they say scored an own goal by letting him go.May not have done well at Wimborne Road recently but riding there every week with rocket man in the same pit could be a master stroke by the Ford's who like the postman always deliver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted December 9, 2023 Report Share Posted December 9, 2023 With the assumption that most have a good idea about 2 of the final 3, I think many will be surprised by the final signing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Fair play to him for taking the risk as he has left both his clubs of last season but not sure he is worth losing Kyle or Anders for if that is what has happened, i thought they were both excellent last season and we really missed Anders in the play offs.

Pirates Of Poole Posted December 9, 2023 Report Share Posted December 9, 2023 Welcome to Poole Tom! Great signing and was good to catch up and have a chat with him last night, very level headed young man and think he will easily put 1 - 1.5 on his average in 2024.

HGould Posted December 9, 2023 Report Share Posted December 9, 2023 Very strange that everyone at Glasgow had planned without Brennan in 2024 based on what he'd told them at start of 2023. Peter Facenna invested in him and owns him so would hardly leave him out unless he believed unavailable or couldn't fit him in or both Good move for him to Poole but with Polish commitments on Sunday, Brummies on Monday and Thursday and Sweden on a Tuesday he's going to be very thinly spread equipment and time wise. Will he be second string in reality with Lawson and Cooks above him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand If its a choice between Brennan and Rowe then it's Tom all day long for me, as for Newman I don't think there is value in his average at all, I expect he will be back in the future if he goes elsewhere and his average dips Edited December 9, 2023 by Bagpuss 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Yes it was good to meet him last night. Very personable and made a point of going around to every sponsor - chatting and photos - during the evening. First 'live' interview with one of the Piratecast crew too. Watch this space.......or more accurately, social media and Youtube!
