They were happy to release the post 1st July team before Xmas so why not announce this guy ?. It is interesting though that many on the Poole Forum (and from other teams) knew most if not all the post 1st July team well ahead of the Ford's announcing, but with this one temp guy nobody seems to have worked out who it is yet. I'm sure we will find out eventually. But if as you say deal done then why not put it out there. I've heard it's matt Marston. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluekevin Posted yesterday at 02:26 PM Report Share Posted yesterday at 02:26 PM Could we not sign a certain Mr Hancock, his average must be low now. Then he can get Will dialed in for July. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gather there has been a change to the original No.7 target, but all sorted now. I'm sure the announcement will be made to get the maximum local media coverage ie, when AFC Bournemouth are not the main sports story!!😉 Edited yesterday at 02:43 PM by SteveLyric2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't understand your emoji 🙃 Don't understand your 'front page' reference. Sport is usually on back page and inside! My winking emoji was referring to today's AFCB injury and player recall news which will surely be the main local sports story.

Gutted. Europe was a real possibility, but hard to believe the clubs position can be maintained. Will still be at Chelsea next Tuesday. Might have a player in by then but unlikely. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LisaColette Posted 10 hours ago Report Share Posted 10 hours ago https://www.poole-speedway.com/news/view/20250107-club-statement Sounds like the guests would have been ones that don't normally ride UK.

The viability of accepting the meetings should have been looked into prior to doing so rather than months later once everything else was in place as you now have another club and fans in Sheffield impacted also. I’ve never understood the Poole bashing before as I’ve thought of them as the gold standard, a tidy and full stadium every week and levels of success that would be the envy of most clubs in any sport let alone speedway but I can now see the self interest and quite frankly f you attitude to everyone else in the sport others talk about.
