Such a talent should surely be snapped up and I thought he was a Weymouth, Dorset lad so would make perfect sense to tie up with Poole. The guy has plenty of talent for sure at only 18 At Plymouth?

I assume he concurs like I that he won't be here under the max 3 league POL rule for POL 2nd Div riders. If we were to assume (just for this debate) that Ellis was not riding Champ, plus Cook left out, then if Anders Rowe as a young 18 year old Brit was reassessed as a young 3 star Brit then the points would indeed allow Schlein & Rowe in under the limit. Both just switch over from Somerset for the season. Geographically one would assume no problem for either as Rowe was due to do Swindon & Somerset and Schlein would have done Somerset for his last season in UK together with Wolves in Prem ?? More food for thought. Unless of course has has signed POL which I assume blows that one up possibly. Maybe not though if not doing SWE/DK. That would mean Schlein coming in as the new number 1 - I don't see that somehow. Also Anders finished in Somerset's 1-5 so may not get the right 'star rating' for a reserve?

Skidder1 7,637 Posted January 25, 2021 Just to add to the intrigue around Poole's team re-building for 2021, on the facebook 'Memories of Poole Pirates' page, the administrator posted a Speedway Star cover showing Jason Crump and Bjarne Pedersen winning the Pairs back in 2007. Underneath was a comment from Matt Ford " Watch out for some extremely exciting news about these guys"!!! Let the intrigue commence............. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I smell a red herring or Jason and Bjarne on a combined 30 point average or They are both riding for Ipswich (or Sheffield, not really up to date with current rumours!)! (It doesn't say 'exciting Poole news' it says 'exciting news about these guys') Edited January 25, 2021 by lisa-colette Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
