Sorry I’ve just been reminded on another thread that the Eastbourne adjustment has still to be taken into account….so maybe I’m wrong here. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quite honestly, he's right to leave if his boss insists on repeatedly calling him "Ben". Show some respect. The name's Benjamin. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So basically they've adopted an approach used by politicians for some time, 'deflect the blame onto someone else whilst also getting your name in the papers' . And well done to Blobby for getting them even more publicity. Edited December 11, 2021 by SharpenRake 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agree,can’t imagine Poole racing on “off night to suit a5 pointer ,espiecially one of the reasons giving for dropping down was the race night scenario.

Just surprised Glasgow took so long to confirm/announce it!! He's obviously happy to have one the double with poole, so not interested in anymore trophys Edited December 11, 2021 by Arthur54 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BartoszZmarzlikFan 491 Posted December 11, 2021 Important information regarding the Ben Basso statement released by Poole. Rumour has it Matt and Danny Ford got together with Boris Johnson and his team of cronies at No.10 to word the Ben Basso statement over a few bottles of wine and select plate of the finest cheeses. The statement got given the green light to go public by Cressida Dick who was also in attendance. Christmas presents were also handed out but nobody knew who brought them their gifts. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
