HGould 2,213 Posted July 1, 2021 Revolving door Poole never change their spots. Kelleher may have got a nice move there, a Team who aren't riding half their Fixtures to a Team who seem to be riding all Home and Away matches unless Rain or opponents putting hold on season intervene. Regular pay or spasmodic pay...looks like Kelleher may have dodged a bullet 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Working with JC will help him though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skidder1 7,637 Posted July 1, 2021 So although the rumours were flying last evening about a 'Czech', there is also another Aussie with an average that fits from 2019 - not sure if he's come over on the off-chance or he's waiting for a call? Before the season started there were several that said Poole had gone for the wrong ZK!!!!!! However with the finances as they are I'm sure Matt won't pay out what he doesn't have coming in?

Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted July 1, 2021 I was willing on Zane last night to do well. You could see he was trying. Over trying at times and as a heat went on he became more untidy. He has never got to grip with the Poole track, taking awful too tight lines into the first bend which force him to the fence on bend two, scrubbing off a load of speed. Over time I felt he would have worked it out. But time is never on a Poole riders side if they can’t replicate on track what they can do on track. It is no doubt a harsh move by the Poole promotion, but the team doesn’t carry any passengers. I really hope he gets fixed up at Plymouth, where he won a heat in Pirates recent victory. Under the watchful eyes of Crump he might just get his act together on track and save his late but possible career in the sport. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
