If you add the 2 up is 9.90 and divide by 2 gives 4.95 over the 21 meetings. If you take Ryes away, he average 5.04 from 13 meetings for Poole. How many meetings does he need to ride in the Prem for his ave to count then? NBJ has never rode for Poole. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BobC 664 Posted December 18, 2018 Rather nonplussed with our team so far. Guess time will tell once all other teams are fully announced. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sidney the robin 4,735 Posted December 18, 2018 I actually think this is a decent signing he is not particularly exciting to watch but i have seen him a few times and he has impressed.I am not a fan of Covatti but this is a solid partnership i actially think NBJ will do a decent job.

Honestly Starman, I don't want to see Matt go and I have reservations as to if anyone want's to take on such a high profile club in the current economic climate. You would think some of the richer business men living in the area would perhaps step up but they so far have not, even as main team sponsors so what chance of someone actually buying it. You would like to think so, but you also need a person with a speedway brain. Perhaps there are other things .and an awful lot of i''s and T's to be crossed...

To be honest Keith is Poole speedway worth that much ? the stadium is rented right?.Also are the riders asset base worth much most of them wont ride the uk again in this climate cant see a taker.With the team in 2019 with no Woryna, Grajczonek, Worrall, Klintd, would be my worries.I would of based my team around Holder,Kurtz, Woryna, Jackobsen, Shanes we shall see roll on April.

Skidder1 7,634 Posted December 18, 2018 (edited) If Matt does manage to sell at some point before the end of the 2019 season, then the new owner(s) will need to have a recognised licenced Promoter on board. If Matt doesn't manage to find a buyer and considers simply 'walking away' - something he has said he wouldn't hope to do - then surely the BSPA would step in and appoint a Promoter to keep a major speedway name like Poole operating. This latter course of action would also probably depend on security of tenure of Poole Stadium. As for the Nicolaj Busk Jakobsen signing - a bit of a surprise but illustrates that a recommendation from Bjarne Pedersen carries rather more weight for MF than Nicolai Klindt's plea for Rasmus Jensen. Some good Premiership scores when guesting for Leicester's Josh Auty at reserve, so should be OK at reserve for Poole with Covatti. Clearly MF sees the reserves switching in and out of the 1-5 during the course of the season - a bit like the Trophy-winning 2018 side.
