Yes but other clubs have offered that rider more than Poole but some have still chosen Poole cos they know there are no late payments! Maybe you just have a greedy mentality..?? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes other clubs offered Rickardsson ,Holder , Ward, Hancock and Janowski more money I’m assuming by Lisa’s comments. Poole are a very well run club for sure but there is no way other clubs offered these riders more then Poole to ride for them Edited December 26, 2018 by Gavan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was only Chris Holder persuading Darcy to come that got him here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jason.C 111 Posted December 26, 2018 It is well known that Poole used to lure big name's due to the amount of sponsorship the club attracted. I do recall Adam's was offered more money in 2003 to ride elsewhere, but the deal was better at Poole that year. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Correct Pooles all round package including sponsors was the main reason why riders used to go there 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This all started because a couple of idiots claimed that Poole not offering a middle order rider more than Ipswich means we have no money, which is crap as past examples show. Poole might give the better all round package but not the highest wages. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What people are saying if you care to read properly is that Poole for the first time are not prepared to go the extra mile to get riders like they used to. Poole cant afford/wont pay.....for riders like Woryna and Jacobsen and wouldnt match Ipswich for Jake Allen. This means that either the club is not as strong financially as some want to believe , or that Matt Ford cant be bothered anymore to pull out all the stops to get the riders he wants. Either way if this line up doesnt produce the goods i wonder how Poole will be able to afford/want to change the team 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
