stevebrum 6,821 Posted July 21, 2017 Poole have just announced KK has just been replaced by Eddie Kennett, so that is of no concern. Milik? No AJ? No Iversen? No Sundstrom? No Nicki P? No Any of Poole's star studded asset base - Lindback/Shamek/Janowski etc? No Eddie Kennett? ? Of course. Eddie will score more points at Poole but is tripe away from home. BTW - Woffy said he might help wolves out but it's a no from him. Seriously, I can't see many Poole fans being happy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hyabb17 1,077 Posted July 21, 2017 (edited) I read that as "that's your lot". Kurtz back in for Worrall & that's your team. "Finding a suitable replacement has not been the easiest of task as I have been in touch with a number of internationally competing riders but unfortunately the three-league rule imposed by Poland has hit us hard. I haven't therefore been able to take full advantage of KKs current 9.83 figure up to which we could have replaced him but I am sure that Eddie's determination to do a job for us will make him a better rider than his 6.82 figure suggests and I am pleased to welcome him back to the club."

Well they are at Swindon next thursday so we shall see how this change goes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheRealFiend 1,109 Posted July 21, 2017 Im happy with that. He will score more than KK. Me too. Kennett rides our place very very well. Couldn't give a monkey's what the Swindon fans are saying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve0 5,517 Posted July 21, 2017 Poole have just announced KK has just been replaced by Eddie Kennett, so that is of no concern. :rofl: Im happy with that. He will score more than KK. :rofl: At least he will score roughly the same as KK away from home and should score a couple of points more at home. Seems strange to replace a 9 point rider with a 6 point one. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Perton Wolf 396 Posted July 21, 2017 Calm down this is only the first change. All to be revealed soon. What is the team's points total now then? Could still be over the limit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheRealFiend 1,109 Posted July 21, 2017 Going to speak the truth now. This team looks terrible. Even KK averaged more than 3 away from home. 1. B. Kurtz 2. T. Lahti 3. J. Holder 4. E. Kennett 5. H. Andersen 6. P. Starke 7. J. Shanes = The worst Poole 1-7 I have ever seen. No play-offs this year. Oh well we will just have to go again in 2018. #PIRATEPRIDE #PIRATESLIFE4ME 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Agrotron 955 Posted July 21, 2017 Has Ford flipped his lid, as much as I like Edward this is not the answer a replacement for KK more like a like for like, of course I wish Edward all the best and hope he does perform. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Been on the phone to Neils by the sound of it then. The Polish 3 League Rule only really affects the top Danish and Latvian riders. Or maybe the truth is that everybody has heard how bad the Poole track is and would rather stay well clear 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve0 5,517 Posted July 21, 2017 I think that change may cost Poole a place in the play offs - very strange indeed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am still going to give the boys my full backing and support but I cant see us finishing in the top 4 this season if I'm being honest. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
