Starman2006 2,354 Posted March 23, 2017 Were the volvo logos on the race suits just stick on patches then or were they sewn into the suit?. 11th hour signing mate, things will be done professionally..

Dave Jones 2,127 Posted March 23, 2017 Were the volvo logos on the race suits just stick on patches then or were they sewn into the suit?. No idea, sorry. Just commenting on a press release. http://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/sport/15172667.It_s_a_deal__Pirates_boss_Ford_to_look_for_fresh_talent_after_sealing_new_title_sponsor/?ref=ar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Starman2006 2,354 Posted March 23, 2017 According to MF in tonights Echo , he had virtually accepted that he would start the season without a team sponsor. It was only in the last few days that the deal with the Volvo dealership was sorted, so it would seem the other three alleged parties weren't quite as interested as claimed. What parties were those then. Please enlighten us ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So were they stuck on or not, not worried about the stadium any more, just remember the same individual has his eyes on Wimbourne Road. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Starman2006 2,354 Posted March 23, 2017 (edited) A proper name. So we are now know as Volvo Cars Poole Pirates. Better than Poole Volvo Cars Pirates! Matt Ford said last week he had received 4 offers for team sponsorship but didn't want to undersell his brand so held out. Guess Volvo have come up with the asking price. Rain has finally stopped but it has been very heavy and prolonged. Not sure if there will be enough time for it to dry out before 3 pm and practice. And your point is Jones... Matt will NOT, under sell Poole speedway, so he was either going to start the campaign with no sponsor or wait for the right one to come along..

BurntFaceMan 413 Posted March 23, 2017 I could sell a Microsoft PC, doesn't make me Microsoft. Matt Ford would have sold the sponsorship for £10,000 if he had no better offers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sherborne Green 320 Posted March 23, 2017 Does it really matter to anyone outside Poole who their sponsors are. To me it appears it is a local Poole firm and they are backing their local team. People outside Poole must be happy that they may have a little less money but Matt Ford is happy and he is the Pirates boss. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
