I'm not sure there are too many who will be better on a sub five point average. Exactly, but Ray is never too positive about the Poole team or anything to do with Poole really! Actually Gavan is prob more positive about it!! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Actually Gavan is prob more positive about it!! Covatti will be up and down that’s a fact. Saw it many times at Ipswich where he could look unbeatable and then the next week struggle. Poole fans I’m sure will get a taste of his inconsistency. Much may depend on the fellow reserve One thing you will get with Covatti is a racer so if he misses the gate as usual you tend to get some excitement 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He may not bang in good scores every week but if the play offs are anything to go by he goes very well at Poole and at reserve could be a match winner. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
STEVEHOLS54 380 Posted December 16, 2018 Does anyone know if Matt Ford held or is holding his Xmas party for the sponsors this year ?? Am asking as with the loss of the main team sponsor plus in his words 1/2 other smaller sponsors not renewing, if there are sufficient sponsors left to warrant having one and the cost no doubt associated. Believe Matt in past years also used the opportunity to name riders for the following season which also generated interest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In the past there has been a lot of high profile, but maybe this year played down in view of the not so positive situation on the Sponsor front ?? Wonder when our last 4 riders will be announced and if Matt will make any formal announcements on why (if rumours are to be believed) that those 2 exciting young riders Woryna & Jakobsen were not resigned. Seen plenty of comments on forum and twitter that Woryna is down to not enough money on offer compared to his big deal in Poland but Jakobsen ?? No doubt more will be said when team news appears. Hopefully before xmas if the 7 are already known which many seem to think they are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
