...it's the absolutely correct place for it, people have the right to know the reason why Poole have replaced him! :rolleyes:

Yeah, he has got personal problems and can't focus properly. They are not footballers whose private life is splashed in the papers. They should be able keep theirs private if they wish.

 

Davey's form as only a concern for Poole fans, or it was and most Poole fans know the reason but gets discussed privately on social media cos we obviously have more decency. :D

Matt Ford expects and normally gets 100% from his riders. He pays them well and on time. In return the rider commits to giving his all to the cause. How other promotions work with their riders is their concern.

 

When a rider signs for Poole he will know that anything less than full commitment will not be tolerated. Middlo demands it in the pits, and Matt demands it for the fans and for the sponsors. Any slacking will be picked up on pretty quickly.

 

Dave Watt brought his personal problems to work. Yes of course it is hard to switch off your feelings but most of us in life have had painful breakups. It's part of life. There will always be someone else to share your life with a little further down the road. You just have to man up rough it and the pain does ease with time.

 

The trouble was his performances cost Poole at least 6 points. He rode appallingly at Lakeside, a track he should have scored double figures at, and at Brandon scored a measly two points. If Poole had somehow managed to win both meetings he might have had a stay of execution, but he cost the team and Matt won't tolerate that. People on here moan and curse about Poole's win at all cost mentality but Matt Ford is not in it to make up the numbers and until another promoter comes along who has the money and ability to compete, Matt will keep doing what he is doing.

It is up to Davey to say it publicly if that is what he wants. You only put it on the forum cos you don't like him and trying to stir. If it was KK it happened to, you would say nothing.

Rick Frost is main team sponsor so the Club benefit there. But he has no say in how the club is run.

If Watt is having personal issues why not get signed off for a couple of weeks like they did with Dakota North?

 

Because that didn't fit with the (Pedersen) plan..............

Great post. Surely personal problems are personal problems arent they?? No difference to Norths situation, guess it depends on where we are in the season

Poole could not make changes with DAK as it fell after the end of August. In this instant if Davey had dropped any further Bjarne would not have been an option.

And there you have it. I make a post about the situation clearly and thoughtfully, and the reply from you is based on agression, bias and hatred. Your moronic reply sums you up perfectly and why many on here take your posts as meaningless and just plain bitter.

 

It is impossible to have a discussion with a blinkered person with no other objective other than to throw about abuse on the Poole thread.

Oh dear. Considering speedway is a 'results business', the Poole promotion are the best in the business, Matt Ford is ruthless but get's the job done, has no sympathy for other teams/promotions - there are lot of touchy Poole supporters around!

If you are so proud of your team and it's success, why all the touchiness?

Why all the sad bitter comments from others. Davey being dropped would have been something that him and Matt discused, And for Daveys sanity the right decision has been made. But im sure the deluded bitter few will continue the argument, just to fill there sad sad time..
