stevebrum 6,823 Posted April 17, 2017 Guess someone could organise a few buckets. But doubt many Poole fans will dig deep to give to Horton. At the recent Wolves V Coventry match there was a turnstile to pay for reduced entry at £15, with another turnstile for the regular £18 with £3 of that going to the fund. Seems a perfect idea to me. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woz01 3,589 Posted April 17, 2017 So why do the Coventry promotion turn up to these meetings Because maybe they'd like Bees to survive like the rest of us. Not everything is done with an ulterior motive. @KeepBeesOnTrack has clarified that it has nothing to do with the previous promotion. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

full-throttle 182 Posted April 17, 2017 lol, you have to laugh the idea of these 'select' meetings is twofold, to keep the Bees name on track and to help the contracted riders earn a few extra £ which they may have done had the Bees continued. Steve, if you would like to organise a bucket collection, please do, I'm sure the receipients would be grateful Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevebrum 6,823 Posted April 17, 2017 You mean people normally pay £18 to watch Wolves? Blimey, no wonder attendances are suffering. And worth every penny with a regular best prepared track award virtually every year. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trackrat 444 Posted April 17, 2017 Agent Garrity on good form today, what a difference 2 days makes. lol, you have to laugh the idea of these 'select' meetings is twofold, to keep the Bees name on track and to help the contracted riders earn a few extra £ which they may have done had the Bees continued. Steve, if you would like to organise a bucket collection, please do, I'm sure the receipients would be grateful Plus fat fraud would have had a blank race day.

poolebolton 464 Posted April 17, 2017 Hopefully KK gets some form. I want him to stay and now he struggled in Poland he will get right on the case. But if he doesn't who is going to replace him. I see about 6 options. Lindback= Loves Poole and might want extra rides. But GP's so doubt it. Vaculik= Will ride for Poole one day mark my words, but still GP's so can't see it. Lindback and Vaculik 1 and 5 next year look out for that. Milik= Already turned us down due to being too busy. Zagar= Could be a interesting option this year. Not that busy and would like the extra rides. Shamek P= Is looking like he will be a GP rider next year and maybe he would like the practice on small tracks AJ= Last resort, almost rode for Poole 2 years ago but doubt it. Peter Lung was mentioned but doubt it. Shamek P best option. But keep KK for at least another month. Lindback and Vaculik will be 1 and 5 next year and Brady.

mdmc82 2,878 Posted April 17, 2017 Rosco will be Coventry Bees manager for this meeting. Stefan replaces Kerr for Coventry which is a huge ask as he will be riding in the top 5 Harris replaces K Bjerre Poole are at full strength Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pirate Baz 218 Posted April 18, 2017 Poole are at full strength ....... and charging full price? A tenner might help improve the crowd. Matt has previously stated he doesn't like staging 'fill in' fixtures due to the lack of interest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dj350z 2,266 Posted April 18, 2017 It will be very disappointing if the Poole supporters don't turn out in force for this meeting which would confirm that they don't care about the Bees returning to the track sometime in the future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lets not forget the likes of Nicki Pedersen who only has GPs and Polish fixtures and who MF has also tried to sign previously; or even Jarek Hampel?! Or even Magic Janowski??
