martinmauger 584 Posted December 11, 2017 (edited) As above, good to see Briggo looking well. His books BTW are very good read, the latest (the one he's signing) is a real adventure, almost 'Indiana Jones And The Speedway'. Barry Briggs is defo a 'man who's done stuff with his life'. Updated forum looking good too.... Edited December 11, 2017 by martinmauger added info 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Poole Quay 7 616 Posted December 11, 2017 The new site looks good and modern. Now on to the new signings some interesting names put forward plus a couple of silly ones! Come on Matt get on with it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted December 11, 2017 (edited) They said 8.30 approx but 8.45 is not very approx. Probably enjoying they profiteroles. Or more likely sitting around trying to work out how facebook live works! Edited December 11, 2017 by Steve Shovlar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If ever I want to feel especially good about myself, I’ll either do some charity work or read a Poole thread for a bit. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tosh1218 592 Posted December 11, 2017 (edited) Barry Briggs One of the best riders I've seen as a 9 yr old and his best days behind him but he was a class act for the now defunct Hull Vikings in 1976 ,he was the ultimate professional and a true gent off the track . Great memories Edited December 11, 2017 by Tosh1218 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted December 11, 2017 (edited) Mateusz Szczepaniak (4.93) and Kacper Woryna (4.65) Great signings! Woryna at reserve and Mateusz Szczepaniak at second string. Mateusz Szczepaniak is top of the Polish league one averages ahead of Kenneth Bjerre, Andersen, Batchelor, Mickelsen, Tungate. I don’t expect him to do as well as those but he is a very good gater and has improved considerably since he last rode over here. https://sportowefakty.wp.pl/zuzel/i-liga/statystyki Kacper is a real talent and the next generation of top Polish stars imo. Could well be challenging Josh G for third heat leader come the end of next season. Less than ten points used on two very good riders. Pirates shaping up nicely.
