phillipsr 2,053 Posted December 24, 2018 Id say the biggest worry for British Speedway is that this team looks one of the stronger ones and yet awful all in one go 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted December 24, 2018 5 hours ago, Pirates Of Poole said: I can confirm it was down to money and Allen wanted a little more than the club could pay at the time. Ipswich have offered him a good deal! From what I understand Poole, Ipswich and another club were talking to him but decided on Ipswich. Poole’s loss as think NBJ is a risk. But the books need to be balanced. Thank you POP. As I said earlier, Allen wanted too much money and Matt said no thanks. Ipswich were prepared to meet Allens pay demands.

Arthur54 1,300 Posted December 24, 2018 (edited) So we now know our 1- 7 no out and out no1 but very solid from 1 - 7, roll on much, let the title defence begin. How's that championship team coming along at Ipswich Gavan Edited December 24, 2018 by Arthur54 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can understand not being able to afford a rider that needs to be flown in but the Jake Allen news is very alarming. NBJ is only in the team because Matt Ford couldn't afford to get one of the riders he wanted. Where on Earth do you get your info from? Poole are very far from being in a fanancial mess no matter how much yourself and Rayc have tried to drag the club down. The books have to be balanced. Clubs that spend more than they can afford end up like Rye House. Matt is keeping Poole on a sensible financial footing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevehone 3,425 Posted December 24, 2018 don't think Poole are one of the bigger payers, certainly weren't before, but the riders know they will BE paid and that makes a big difference 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Surely that contravened the fact that as an Ipswich rider we should have had first dibs on signing him, perhaps Chris didn't want him Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
