Grachan 7,314 Posted November 23, 2017 That's great news, and hopefully (and presumably) both will be in the side next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A ORLOV 8,628 Posted November 23, 2017 (edited) Would be a good start, if it is him or a rider starting with Z Not a bad guess. Seriously great news and signings, two riders who did well this year and will improve next. Two good riders we need in the team. I wonder if like Poole Swindon are building up to a squad system for the future. Edited November 23, 2017 by A ORLOV 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeffster 60 Posted November 23, 2017 First Vaculik, now Ellis. Ford losing his touch. I thought Poole were the club everyone wants to ride for!! I think you may be getting confused with Poole Cycle Speedway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
foreverblue 6,081 Posted November 23, 2017 First Vaculik, now Ellis. Ford losing his touch. I thought Poole were the club everyone wants to ride for!! The problem is we can only fit 7 riders in the team! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DC2 11,150 Posted November 23, 2017 I’d like to see us stick by our assets whether or not it’s the best possible team, something like: Doyle Newman Ellis Bellego Musielak Nielsen Wajknecht 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SCB 0 Posted November 23, 2017 First Vaculik, now Ellis. Ford losing his touch. I thought Poole were the club everyone wants to ride for!! Why are people shocked Ellis doesn't want to be at Poole after some of the comments made on here by his father (and quite understandable too!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skidder1 7,632 Posted November 23, 2017 (edited) He is a Lakeside asset currently. Dont believe Poole signed him. Quite right. As Adam's dad (Jonny the Spud for those that don't know) PM'd me over a month ago, the deal between Lakeside and Poole was agreed - but then Lakeside increased their price!! MF never pays over the odds. Incidentally, the Swindon statement says that neither Adam or Zach are confirmed in the Robins 1-7 yet!! As with most clubs the final line-ups will be down to the numbers adding up correctly! Edited November 23, 2017 by Skidder1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reliant Robin 492 Posted November 23, 2017 Quite right.

MF never pays over the odds. Incidentally, the Swindon statement says that neither Adam or Zach are confirmed in the Robins 1-7 yet!! As with most clubs the final line-ups will be down to the numbers adding up correctly! That's some serious back pedalling there Skidder Perhaps Swindon got a discount for buying both? Or perhaps.....just maybe....Adam had a straight choice between signing for Swindon or signing for Poole and chose the Club that showed a little faith in him in 2017. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skidder1 7,632 Posted November 23, 2017 Its not about faith its about numbers. Always has been always will be. At the time it was a 'done deal' albeit verbally and was being openly discussed by several Poole sponsors, you know, the ones that still appeared prominently on his 2017 kevlars. Maybe Jonny the Spud will confirm what he told me in his PM to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe Jonny the Spud will confirm what he told me in his PM to me. I'm only teasing you're not usually far off the mark to be fair when things finally pan out. From what I've been told It was never a 'done deal', though a couple of sponsors may have thought it was going to happen. Fairly confident we'll see Adam in red and white for 2018. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A ORLOV 8,628 Posted November 23, 2017 What future? Who knows, this change in team build restrictions might bring on more Brit riders or it could backfire and turn more supporters away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
