What on earth on you blithering on about? Why are you trolling my name when I'm not even in the conversation. Mind numbing. Edit... I wonder when they are going to confirm the averages for those returning to the UK for 2018?? Strange that there is no confirmation from the BSPA Edited December 11, 2017 by stevebrum added information Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looking at those signings for the Poundstretcher Poole Pirates (PPP), its unlikely that you could afford a set of tyres for either of those much vaunted riders. Vaculik, a GP rider of some standing, had a look at what you were offering and decided that he might get a few more sheckels at Leicester, at team that has propped the league up for the last couple of seasons. That's a tad embarrassing for a 'big club' such as yourselves. This time last year when certain riders were announced e.g. Klindt the Poole fans were all excited as they believed they signed last seasons best 'ringer', which didn't work out so well if I remember correctly. I think that the major issue will be the mental scarring from all those home defeats at the Four Point Arena. Its everyone's favourite away track now and those Poles will really have to be on the gas early, if its not to be another barren season. I hope not.

poolebolton 464 Posted December 12, 2017 I think this a good move. Yes its a risk they might not play out but Ford has done his homework and thinks they can fit in. Rynbik riders together which is always is an advantage because they can travel across together. Woryna is a different rider to last time he beat every single GP rider in a heat last year so he is doing something right. Szczepaniak= Must be doing something right to be a top rider in League 1 and he can gate. Think ford said a sensible thing that the tracks now are bigger in the UK with Somerset and the Leicester works. I wonder just before the stream died(sound went bad) he said he was talking to an old rider who sent him a text wonder who that was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brady Kurtz 2. Spanneriak 3. Josh Graczonek 4. Hans Andersen 5. Chris Holder 6. Kacper Woryna 7. James Shanes. just under the points limit. If that side is assembled then Poole will be knocking on the door in 2018 a good blend of youth and experience Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woz01 3,589 Posted December 12, 2017 (edited) I suspect Szczepeniak and Woryna to average around 6. Both will do well at home but poorly away. Also where are Poole getting Szczepeniak 4.54 average from? His last Coventry average was 4.93, did he ride elsewhere afterwards?

Why do you keep putting Woryna at reserve when your team's press release clearly states that Woryna has a higher average than the other Pole? BTW If that is the team, it looks better than the gash from 2017. Edited December 12, 2017 by Steve0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g13webb 4,254 Posted December 12, 2017 I think the signing of Mateusz Szczepaniak and Kacper Woryna are tremendous acquisitions. Not sure of the averages they will acquire, but for exciting Speedway they are both quality riders capable of beating the very best.. No doubt every other club will be envious of Poole . I wish they were riding for the Stars, that for sure.,, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So far we have been swamped by posters who have called the two signings, 'meh', uninspiring, Poundland Poole Pirates, same standard as Huckenbeck, rubbish. I would like to know of a better reserve in the Premier League next year than Woryna. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gavan 5,050 Posted December 12, 2017 Hardly signings that will set the world alight but with the potential to improve. Its alright saying that their form in Poland is strong but very often that form doesnt translate across. Love seeing the usual Poole suspects going on and on about how wonderful their team looks. 12 months ago.........................KK was back at his spiritual home there wasnt going to be a better number one in the league..glad Chris Holder was gone as KK was far better. Nicolai Klindt was going to be the best reserve in the league, someone on a false average who was only going to score bucket loads of points. Kurtz and Jack Holder would be the new turbo twins smashing in points all over the place..........Kyle Newman 'Mr Poole' lovead and adored by everyone at the club was going to kick on and realise his potential................you ended up with Lahti, Starke and Kennett Now we are being told how amazing these 2 young Poles will be...........................hope it doesnt go the same as last year 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrMungo 708 Posted December 12, 2017 Hell of a lot of potential for improvement in the 2 Poles, will be interesting if they can fulfil it next year. They certainly look quick on the continent. Likely to be the key men for Poole next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
