Very true but more likely with inexperienced riders. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just could not find anything on them ...Not being critical Top Class were race sponsors last season!! Looks as though Matt & Helen's French Chateau adventure may not be featured in the current series of 'Escape to the Chateau' starting on Channel 4 today, as filming is not yet complete and the TV crew have been summoned back to UK due to the current coronavirus situation. Doubtless Matt will give an update in the first of Poole's weekly video Q&A's on the club website and social media platforms.

I'm aware of a few Clubs who were already offering Concessions to NHS and key workers and Military / Emergency Front line so well done Poole on going a bit further. Hope that when the season does start (and lets all be hopeful and positive that it will start at some point) that all Clubs will follow this with similar schemes. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skidder1 7,632 Posted March 28, 2020 Poole website and SpeedwayGB have the interview with Matt Ford from last evening. Its a good 30 minutes or so. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crabba59 156 Posted March 29, 2020 Having just watched the interview with Matt Ford well it puts to bed the rumours that nearly all the fans wanted to stop in the higher league. Well the truths out that 70% plus wanted to drop down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skidder1 7,632 Posted March 29, 2020 The video also stated that crowds were much bigger when Pirates were last in the '2nd division' back in the early 90's. They dropped considerably when Poole went British League!! And that is definitely true cos I was there. In the modern era the Holder/Ward/Janowski teams brought the crowds back.
