poole keith 909 Posted January 25, 2019 attendance figures are a closely guarded secret in speedway so theres no proof of this "increase" and promoters can pretty much say anything,didnt think poole were regarded as particularly generous with youth admissions Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gavan 5,049 Posted January 25, 2019 Im still about just no need to post on this thread the Poole team is done and dusted The events of the final last season.........the fact my team have stupidly moved up and built an average looking side.....one man owning 3 clubs..........means my interest in this once great sport has dwindled somewhat.......like a lot of people with family ive got better things to spend my hard earned cash on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But very hard to do when you have them sort of riders riding for you . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This allows Matt to progress his other business opportunity abroad, whilst 'keeping the club amongst trusted family and friends'. Theres a good video interview with the new promoters on the Poole website now. Sounds as though the Digital Marketing Agency are working on something for the whole of speedway - not just Poole.

Keeping the club going. And the big increase of young fans. Poole are the most, or equally expensive in the league for young ones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just an idea I'm sure gavan is far too intelligent to do something like that. That has to be worse than selling the Big Issue on a street corner. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
