Kelleher was prob some kids favourite. 

Most kids switch favourite riders on a daily basis!

Revolving door Poole never change their spots.

Kelleher may have got a nice move there, a Team who aren't riding half their Fixtures to a Team who seem to be riding all Home and Away matches unless Rain or opponents putting hold on season intervene.

Regular pay or spasmodic pay...looks like Kelleher may have dodged a bullet

You might wanna tell him that then! Apparently he isn't happy (acc to the Echo article) and his SM is a bit silent today. Working with JC will help him though.

Sometimes you have to be ruthless, that's why poole are so successful

So although the rumours were flying last evening about a 'Czech', there is also another Aussie with an average that fits from 2019 - not sure if he's come over on the off-chance or he's waiting for a call?

Before the season started there were several that said Poole had gone for the wrong ZK!!!!!!

However with the finances as they are I'm sure Matt won't pay out what he doesn't have coming in?

Which means absolutely nothing due to the standard of both leagues being relatively the same & the fact Poole decided to step down after sitting top of the league in 2019 :rolleyes:

I was willing on Zane last night to do well. You could see he was trying. Over trying at times and as a heat went on he became more untidy. He has never got to grip with the Poole track, taking awful too tight lines into the first bend which force him to the fence on bend two, scrubbing off a load of speed. Over time I felt he would have worked it out. But time is never on a Poole riders side if they can’t replicate on track what they can do on track. 
 

It is no doubt a harsh move by the Poole promotion, but the team doesn’t carry any passengers. I really hope he gets fixed up at Plymouth, where he won a heat in Pirates recent victory. Under the watchful eyes of Crump he might just get his act together on track and save his late but possible career in the sport.

I bet you can't name many riders who don't ride in both leagues, i reckon about 6 at the most

They were once saying that they were always at the bottom for decades.
