Skidder1 7,632 Posted February 8, 2018 (edited) Matt's been keeping a close eye on his progress since he brought him over for the Blue Riband at the end of 2016. He was still studying at that time and wanted to complete all those studies before commiting full-time to Speedway.

Most tracks do it within a week or so after the final meeting of the season and let it bed in and settle over the next 6 months. I thought Linus acquitted himself very well indeed. Happy to chat, sign photos, and encouraged questions. Certainly comes across very well when interviewed. If he hits the ground running, I think Poole could be in for a very good season. Lost out in the quiz to Shovvys team when we had a dire final round. They got 24 while we only scored 9. Ended up losing by 7pts. Disaster! We had James Shanes in our team and I must admit, him and his sister are very knowledgeable. Very nice people too. Hope he has a good season. Good to see Starman make a fleeting appearance, although I didnt get to say hello. Also, very good to see and meet up with familiar faces. Havent been to a REF night for around 7 years. Excellent evening. Was really good to see you Bob you'll have to check on your Dad when the next one is on. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you have assets who ride abroad permnantly and not in this country they are no use to the promotion in this country as an asset to sell on or loan out. If they ride in this country then they are a viable asset. Edited February 11, 2018 by Starman2006 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
