Only individual riders. No, I wouldn’t make the change, but we could do it as a 42.5 point redeclaration. Zac is doing more than could be expected so let’s keep the team. They’ve done very well, whether or not we win the league. It would certainly be a hollow victory if Poole’s band of mercenaries cobble together a title win. No pasaran!

You be proud of keeping the same team then and leave yet another league title to us. I can live with that. Edited August 8, 2018 by Steve Shovlar 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, to be fair, Poole haven’t won it for a while, and we don’t mind the lesser clubs getting a look in now and again. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nothing hollow about our victory if it comes. Just good management and two Brits in the team. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crazy robin 2,963 Posted August 9, 2018 Nice to see Shovlar back posting now Poole are winning again. Looks like a disappearing act to Rome might not be needed like previous years when things went belly up. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Most of us wouldn't go to work if we weren't paid and if we didn't do the job adequately we would be sacked. Edited August 9, 2018 by foreverblue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grachan 7,314 Posted August 9, 2018 Poole are no more mercenary than Leicester. They're just better at it. Oh wait. Swindon thread. Off topic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
