DunRobin 465 Posted January 6, 2015 its a Poole thing, just a few off the top of my head, Leon Madson, Medzinski, Josh... etc..etc.. average goes up from their starting one then get's dumped.. It's one reason why Poole have got so many assets. They come in on a low starting average & then up it in the season & then no longer get an offer for the following season. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gavan 5,050 Posted January 6, 2015 Because Matt ford is thinking of 2015 only? Watt has the experience and has his average riding as a heatleader. North is the odd signing but again, in 2015 are North and Milik going going to average much different? Plus the Aussies are probably a lot easier to work with with fixtures and costs. Yes. Milik is a much better rider than North and will only get better. Think Matt Ford needs to give the fans a reason why Milik isnt in the team as to me he will average more than Watt and North so its a strange one. If he has commitments in Poland that mean he doesnt want to ride here then Ford should tell the fans that. Also if i was Magic i would say thanks but no thanks. Second choice behind Ward??? He should say do you or dont you want me or im not riding here. Based on last season Magic would be a better option than Ward anyway 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Based on last season Magic would be a better option than Ward anyway Why should he tell the fans his reasons for who will or won't be in the team? Most promoters keep the fans in the dark anyway. With regards to Janowski, he has a very good relationship with Matt Ford I believe so he won't burn his bridges by telling him to do one!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pirates Of Poole 761 Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) Matt builds teams to win the EL title, thats the simple fact we are in to win nothing else, there is always a chance people will return after leaving ie Davey. Sadly it's a business and like any business some riders miss out, poole have lost a couple of Championships by being 'loyal' to some members of the team in the past. Looking at the different teams it seems we won't be tracking Brady, have we now missed out and he is off to Swindon with Rosco?

Skidder1 7,637 Posted January 6, 2015 That's all just speculation though isn't it...unless you know Magic personally of course I only know Magic as well as the occasional conversation with him at social functions or at MF's house. I know MF much better!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your are quite right he doesnt have to disclose anything, just when you have a young rider on the up and who is a favourite of the fans wouldnt it be a welcome change for a promoter to explain to the fans why he is not to be included? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Based on last season Magic would be a better option than Ward anyway I think it's more that Janowski would prefer to put his energy into the GPs but will help out if needed, rather than being second behind Ward. Hopefully Skidder can clear that up. If, however, it were a straight choice between them, I'd go with Janowski and use the extra point for the last position.

Yes let's have more unfounded speculation from Skidder without no real answers:-) Matt builds teams to win the EL title, thats the simple fact we are in to win nothing else, there is always a chance people will return after leaving ie Davey.

You think Swindon have a chance of having Brady really as I sure as hell don't?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haza 1,774 Posted January 6, 2015 What are you on about. Niels and Kenneth have always been good mates and often spend time together off the track playing golf ect.. ok if that's what you say - ive witnessed the fall outs in the Pboro pits between them both but if you say they was good friends at that time you could have fooled me .

stevebrum 6,821 Posted January 6, 2015 Say that again ... I was shocked too ;-) As was proved by both Troy & Miedzinski it doesn't always mean if they don't ride for their parent club they have to be sold. True, but cant see Adams letting anyone use Tai on his low average. If it went to arbitration then I think that's the end of Tai and Wolves but I believe his closeness to Adams means that is unlikely to happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
