Not being difficult as I want all clubs to survive and its an important double fixture for both clubs financially with the local rivalry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wee Eck 703 Posted November 15, 2018 1 hour ago, Phil The Ace said: Everyone will ride good Friday, I'm on about racing some meetings on a Wednesday, not a FRN, I don't want to sound like a broken record but I don't care. What is the point in having FRN if teams are going to ride on a Wednesday. Having 5 teams on a Thursday and 2 on a Monday is ridiculous. Might aswell put all on a Thursday or make a 3rd team ride on a Monday FRN has always been the wrong expression. The agreement relates to priority. Subject to the agreement of the teams whose standard race night it is, any team can ride on any night. The problem was (a) getting your own 1-7 together on the chosen night and (b) getting an opposition 1-7 willing to come. PL operated in 2018 with the protected race nights of Monday and Thursday but that didn’t stop Poole and KL regularly, and others spasmodically racing on a Wednesday, a night on which Denmark has protection. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Monday & Wednesday were the "set race days" agreed at last year's AGM. The problem was that the 2nd priority day agreed at the ISLB was Thursday. Whether that was before or after the AGM and why it was different is anybody's guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hope the promoter remembers how rude and unreliable the Holder clan can and, have been and, treat them in the same way as a cheeky Brit rider is treated!! Hopefully the revolving door will be running at max revs before the season even gets started.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If Matt can use both it makes a lot of sense and would save plenty not having to fly in expensive foreign riders(besides Jakobsen & Woryna). That would be ASSUMING of course Chris had the all clear to ride and for sure Matt will not be waiting until March to see if that happens. Arguably not an out and out heat leader to start although both Holders and Kurtz have the potential to be well over their starting GSA's for 2019 as the season develops. Would like to maybe also see Morris in (see he finally sorted his contract in POL just before midnight last night after having initially refused due to owed money). Where would he fit though as a bit higher than Klindt even with 2.5% reduction 6.74 compared to 6.61. Of course if Chris Holder was looking to maybe up sticks in UK, then he easily goes in. Hopefully will get some clarity over the coming weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

poolebolton 464 Posted November 15, 2018 Chris Holder has been in Andorra for last week. I think he might be moving there. Fricke and fast Freddie base themself there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
