Glasgow for example could run a top 5 of Cook, Nicol, Rasmus Jensen, Musielak, Sam Jensen plus 2 x Rising Stars, that team would be competitive Poole could come back up with Ellis, Basso, S. Worrall, Covatti, Kurtz, Hume & Shanes again quite competitive Doyle would be affordable to Witches the offer made to Crump was quite a lucrative one! As much as I would love to keep Steve Worrall at Poole if we moved back up, I am sure he would choose BV over us. But maybe they could keep Brady as an exchange?

Maybe you should listen to Glasgow's Facena podcast, Plymouth's Garry May interview and note Kings Lynn's 2022 signings already. Plus Poole won't go back to Premiership if Mon/Thurs fixed nights are still insisted upon. Also lets not forget the Eurosport contract that presumably insists on a 'senior' league?

All theory anyway as if Poole won't go up unless they can have Weds, which they can't get cos Denmark protected that night before we could. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baldyman 6,243 Posted September 16, 2021 Well I hope there is more than 6 teams next year,, because that was pathetic,,, having said that,, it means Ipswich won't finish any lower than 6th 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unless they have given that up now? From what I gather Poole don't get the numbers on Thurs/Mon like they do on a Weds. Not sure what other clubs in prem are like? Fine for BV, Ipswich and Wolves I guess as can stick to their favoured race night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
