I think you'll find Denmark are pretty cooperative to help find a solution for both parties imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Poole obviously think it is worth it. A family member said to me the other day 'he won't be at Poole for long as he is too good!!' Edit - be interesting to see if he gets a Prem place for 2022 Edited October 27, 2021 by lisa-colette Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edit - be interesting to see if he gets a Prem place for 2022 Don't think should be allowed to sign a rider who you know is going to miss home meetings IMO. Makes a mockery of the league. Quick enough to criticise grobauer, absolutely no difference if that's allowed. Should go back to NL guest as only facility in such occasions 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skidder1 7,637 Posted October 27, 2021 Poole can always choose to race on a different day of the week when there are clashes with Basso's Danish fixtures. The chance to watch Basso would surely negate any reduction in attendance due to racing on an off-night?! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted October 27, 2021 If Basso is in the 2022 team, and clearly all Pirates fans want it to be so, then missing a handful of meetings is a small price to pay for what could be a heat leader on a reserve average. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
