SaddlebowRoad Posted October 24 Report Share Posted October 24 26 minutes ago, Arch Stanton said: Brennan now needs to be dropping the Championship from his busy calendar. I personally thought he was spreading himself far too thin this year and he MAY have have progressed even further with a few more breathers here and there. If Ben Cook doesn’t feel Championship racing benefits his career anymore, then Tom Brennan certainly shouldn’t. He’s on an upward trajectory and has bigger fish to fry. completely agree feels like the time is right for them both to put their time into other things and riding better riders more often 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pirates Of Poole Posted October 24 Report Share Posted October 24 (edited) Poole will have some re-building to do. Tom will be following Ben out of Poole, so the management will have to pull some rabbits out of the hat to replace the quality of those 2. I'm sure more will become clear after next Monday. Clearly it's still being discussed on here, but sadly when you don't move up riders like Ben and Tom move on, that is the Fords choice. I wish them the best of luck for 2025 onwards and looking forward to seeing their progress for years to come.

Re Tom I heard it suggested that he would be interested in riding for Poole in 25 average cap allowing. Otherwise he'll give the Championship a miss.

arnieg Posted October 24 Report Share Posted October 24 39 minutes ago, LisaColette said: 4 would possibly be Rowe? 40 => Rowe, 38 => 4 pt foreigner. I do see a potential issue which is that having a Dane in the team worked in 2024 because Tobias wasn't perceived as good enough to land a regular DSL spot back in Denmark, but his progress may mean that next season he is wanted back in Denmark on Wednesday's for DSL matches. If no Tobias in 2025, then that would make sense of the Ablitt rumours as an alternative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Kerr 6. Vinnie Foord 7. TBC Kerr feels like an odd shout for a Poole side. He's made of glass Dan Thompson or even Sedgy would be a better option for that average. Rowe and a 2 point place holder until Cairns is 16 and that would be some side. Must admit I was one of the many that wrote Thomsen off before he turned a wheel but he had a great season, fair play. Deserves to be back next year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Shovlar Posted October 24 Report Share Posted October 24 I would definitely have Tobias back. His slump coincided with his injuries and once back to fitness his scoring improved. He was the rider of the playoffs and KO Cup imo. 1. Richard Lawson 2. Tobias Thomsen 3. Zach Cook 4. Anders Rowe 5. Lewis Kerr 6. Vinnie Ford 7. William Cairns. Leave it to someone else to tell me it’s over 39. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
