Maybe two surprises?

Speedway fans often wonder why Poole have been so consistently successful over the last 20 years. The answer is that Matt has been quite ruthless when it comes to selecting his 1-7 and takes no prisoners. No easy ride for the season. If a rider isn’t cutting it, he gets cut himself. Keleher found that out pretty quickly and was extremely lucky to get picked up by Plymouth.

Matt has proved time and again, that a rider who is popular with the fans may not be back the following season. Mark Loram was extremely populat at Wimborne Road but out he went. Replaced by TRick to the shock of the Poole faithful. This time around Ben Basso, who has so much potential to improve could find himself promoting Basso hats elsewhere. 

Will young Danyon Hume, who did brilliantly this gone season, have averaged himself out of a berth? That would be a huge shame if it happened. Matt Fords job is to put together a title winning side and emotions have to be put on the back burner. This worst part of owning and running a speedway team.

First Poole rider announcements in early December!!

Source: Bournemouth Echo 'Middlo's 25 trophies' story today.

That's quite late for the Championship though, so could be obvious who is in the team by who is left!

I don't like surprises! As long as they don't shock people too much.

If in breach of contract couldn't Plymouth stop him from riding elsewhere?

I said a few weeks ago that I was told Pirates are remaining in the Championship with Danny King at No.1..........No return for Steve Worrall

Rumours from Poland today that Lawson has signed for Poole in the Championship which would certainly put an end to any return for Worrall.
