I would certainly like to see Anders back but not Danny. He is at the twilight of his career and his scoring has already diminished this season. Lawson Z Cook Foord D Thompson Rowe top heat leader decent reserve 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveLyric2 Posted September 18 Report Share Posted September 18 If the rumoured points limit for team building is to stay at 38, then Poole already have to lose 8.49 points on current averages. With Tom and Ben likely to leave, Zach could well be the 3rd heat leader but as for who else - its anyone's guess. Some promotions are pushing for a 'fairer' share out of heat leaders, so will there be a limit on the number of 8+ point riders per team? Its been done before........

If you want to share out top riders equally then that is the only way to do it imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By my quick check you have 13 8+ riders in the league, make it 9 potentially next year without picko, B Cook, Tom and schlein. Sorry 10 if add in Steve worrall. If you limit to 1 each you're putting 1 out of work or by making it 2 there's no point as would be same position with some teams having 2 and others not having any.

Might appeal to promoters as it gives them the upper hand in negotiations over terms! Didn't this happen some years ago when the top league introduced a 1 GP riders per team limit? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pirates Of Poole Posted September 19 Report Share Posted September 19 (edited) It will see a further weakened watered down league in 2025 as it has been done in 2023 & 2024. Where we lost Danny then Steve etc but managed to find riders who could step up along with reserves on low averages increasing their starting average.

Pirates Of Poole Posted September 19 Report Share Posted September 19 If Brennan and Ben deicide not return to championship racing in 2025 Poole will be in the market for a new HL. Rowe would be a good second string but will he want to return to Poole? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many EF’s. Rather have an ambitious youngster in the team. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
