Also interesting that the Daily Echo never mentioned it but maybe they have been told not to.

I assume it's a case of how much rent we pay rather than if we pay any at all. But Skidder and POP will have an idea I guess. As I can't see those riders just waiting about for nothing, I assume they have been given some assurances imo.

We not used to it I suppose and from what it says in the report and me completely reading between the lines it doesn't sound like Basso gave them a heads up or a hint that he was going to leave, I guess they were just completely shocked! But fair comment with everything you have said.

Hoping that it nearly is sorted, depends if it had to be taken the legal route I suppose which can make things take longer. I remember the days when things didn't get announced til February, guess we might have to have that for this year.

https://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/sport/19800333.ford-says-basso-exit-pirates-hurt-personal-level/?ref=twtrec Well looks like we are moving on from this now seeing as they have wished him all the best at Glasgow depending on what Basso says in the Star.

Just passing the time while waiting for team news, be quickly forgotten when team gets announced, don't you worry about that!

That one makes more sense!

Maybe they were trying to distract him as they thought he'd be match winner

I believe he is also good friends with Hans Andersen who often quotes that saying of 'being nice to people, as you meet the same people on the way up as you do on the way down' or however it goes! I await with interest!

Better than nothing Ray, at least we get a sense of where things are heading.

You, seeing as you are talking about it! lol.

Saving it for Basso's interview in the SS. The popcorn that is.... lol

Well no one sensible anyway So Ryan Douglas and .......?

I don't think they will name anyone til 7 riders are signed. Unless they have a rider that would be in the team no matter what happens, like Danny King for example. But definitely not half imo. Edinburgh haven't announced anyone either, so not just us!

And could overshadow Basso's POV!!

Surely his average would be ridiculous in the Champ. Plus I assume he is still doing Poland and Sweden? A few people seemed to think he was dropped from his Swedish team, but did anyone find out if that was actually true or not?

Can we not have just a teeny bit of drama whilst I'm waiting for the Poole team to be announced.

But I thought that was also the criteria to become an asset of a club?

One last thing to sort out before Poole management are going to start announcing according to the local paper. Hope the one thing isn't the rent and that's already been sorted.

Pass the popcorn

No comment

Interesting considering he's been deemed to be a Poole asset, don't they have to ask Matt permission to speak to him?

Ummm, well one option is telling the truth, the other is telling a lie to keep people happy. So either way one option is lying. Or some riders are smart and are a bit more non committal.

No, I said he was either lying or telling the truth at the time. I didn't say it was one thing or the other. Anyway Dickie Head has said they never got asked that so a bit hypothetical now anyway!
