Still have my misgivings about Danny to be honest not sure he has his finger on the pulse all the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reguardless of his dad being in the background its a hell of a lot of hard work time and money. He will get good support, but its a lot to take on Board for a young lad which he is, who is is trying to make his way into Speedway promoting. He will learn along the way. But one thing Dan will not be is a pushover. And i like many others, support him 100 %. Edited November 21, 2019 by Starman2006 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's got some good experience around him and as you rightly say Matt is but a phonecall, text, message away. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dave Jones 2,119 Posted November 22, 2019 I see Matt is advertising on the club website for a "qualified plumbing & heating engineer" to do some work at his French Chateau project . I do hope that whoever takes on the job understands that there will be a requirement to include an instantaneous "kill switch" for the hot water supply to each bathroom in case of any unexpected emergencies.

ASpeedwayfan 30 Posted November 22, 2019 So Ford says the next rider we sign has rode for us before, which really narrows it down Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skidder1 7,616 Posted November 22, 2019 (edited) Matt is still doing the team building for 2020. As he says in the update on the club website 'Its far easier to get riders than it is a professional plumber"! As is usual rider announcements will be staggered over a period of weeks to maximise media coverage and avoid AFC Bournemouth news clashes. As above the next announcement within 4-5 days of a rider that has been a Pirate previously. Facebook is already full of possible suggestions - Adam Ellis, Nico Covatti,Stefan Neilsen, THJ, Paul Starke - loads of others I'm sure. Still 2 to come with higher averages than Stevie Worrall?!
