I swear I saw him in a Polish squad of some kind! Possibly the same one Scott and Hans are in but I am not 100% sure on that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whereas Rowe and Kemp, just doing U24 Poland? Depends if Kemp or Rowe sign for both Poole & Ipswich, they'll both be "match fit" then. Mind you even if Kemp only signs for Poole on one league, that's no different to the amount of racing Kyle Newman is getting! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But if you are choosing between Drew, Dan and Anders then when the meetings start Dan will have more regular meetings than the other two, unless Anders signs for Ipswich, then pretty even depending on how often he rides in Poland.

I would say Dan is a better option, he has more potential in my opinion. Bit strange he hasn't been able to get a ride in the Championship. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bit strange he hasn't been able to get a ride in the Championship. I think it is mostly down to his average. Especially considering most teams have high averaged riders and then really low averaged riders. Also half of his average is from Leicester and there is no Leicester (in this league). That's why I asked what his away average was last season as a guide. I can understand fans looking at his scores at Poole and not being sure. But it must be easier to ride Poole as a Poole rider than riding Poole as an away rider, as you have battle the track you might only see once or twice a year and the home team.

Yes that is true, he had one great meeting at Poole when he was a reserve apart from that not too impressive although I think he rode at 5 sometimes which would have been tough, he was very good at Leicester but he has done a lot of laps there. I doubt his scores in the later stages of last season were much different to Kemp and he wouldn't have Kemp's attitude so I think after some laps at Poole with the guidance of the more experienced riders and Middlo he would do well. It looks like a straight choice between Kemp and Dan Thompson to me. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any Poole fan that was happy with JT surely would see DanT as an very good replacement,still young and has lot of improvement to come IMO.Couple of weeks and he would soon have the track and set ups sorted IMO. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know there were on going discussions with him before he signed for Ippo, which if Poole had known they could have shared all his initial costs with Ippo. With his commitments in Poland, he’s bound to miss a large handful of matches over here. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
