lisa-colette 6,028 Posted November 17, 2016 Right, someone who is in the know. What is the number 1 situation??? They must be a big name rider. If we get a number 1 around the 10.25 mark and below, we could get Starke at reserve with a two pointer. That becomes a very strong team. I know he is a Somerset rider but he did say in the echo few months ago he wanted to ride for Poole again. But someone speak the truth about Number 1 please. You'll just have to be patient and see what happens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
poolebolton 464 Posted November 17, 2016 I know I have said that we need more information from the club about signings. But we have never been big on news and potentially why we are so successful because we just get on with our job and build a winning team and that is just simply a process which we get on with it. Trust in Matt i guess is the message the club says. But we do need one thing. A new website ours is just rubbish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The fans want rumours, stories, interviews, potential signings etc. And the website is rubbish. 1 update a week (during the season!) and its usually just the results. Boring as it gets. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As for team news, Matt will anounce it when he's ready as he always does. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bleeds Pirate Blue 192 Posted November 17, 2016 The website is awful. Totally unacceptable in 2016 (going on 2017). I understand speedway isn't a multi-million pound sport etc, but even one-man (or woman) start-up businesses have better sites looking and functioning sites on free WordPress themes that cost very little to set up. The sport is dying, yet this country's most successful club in the last 10-15 years sees no value in improving their digital presence, and embracing a younger, tech-savvy, mobile-first audience. <slow clap> 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Think ourselves lucky that we have a website and a forum? That's like a shopkeeper saying "Think yourself lucky we have a shop window". The local florist has a better website than we do. A website isn't a luxury, it's a necessity in modern day business. I could knock up a better site for Poole Speedway in 24 hours. Guaranteed. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bleeds Pirate Blue 192 Posted November 17, 2016 @BurntFaceMan You could knock up a better site in about 4 hours. And even then about 75% of the work would be migrating content!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
poolebolton 464 Posted November 17, 2016 Interesting to see on the website that they have done team in alphabetical order suggesting that one of our riders will be between A and H for the surnames of riders. Any ideas???? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BurntFaceMan 413 Posted November 17, 2016 @BurntFaceMan You could knock up a better site in about 4 hours. And even then about 75% of the work would be migrating content!! It would take about 20 minutes if you took away the migrating content and reworking that low resolution logo! Interesting to see on the website that they have done team in alphabetical order suggesting that one of our riders will be between A and H for the surnames of riders. Any ideas???? It's just shoddy web design, I wouldn't look too far into it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
