Maybe it could be reassessed as he missed last season and a big chunk of 2022. Best interests of the sport and helping a British lad find a way back into the game. Would probably need another rule in the ever thickening book saying British riders who miss a season due to injury are entitled to a certain percentage reduction of their average.

I just thought it was funny that you were going on at Skidder for not keeping on the subject you were discussing whilst also not doing the same on the thread 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
STEVEHOLS54 380 Posted November 9, 2023 With the rumour that San Hagon maybe coming to Poole in 2024, found this interesting little article posted on Australia Speedway site in last few days. Exciting British youngster Sam Hagon will be joining Mildura’s Olympic Park Speedway ranks during the upcoming summer to further develop his racing talents. Hagon will follow in the footsteps of riders such as Dan Bewley and Tom Brennan who were summer residents at Olympic Park. Hagon has had a great year in 2023 representing the Birmingham Brummies with local star Justin Sedgmen and picking up the Rider of the Year trophy competing with the Belle Vue Colts. Mildura looks forward to seeing Sam in action at the Jason Lyons Solo Trophy on Tuesday December 26th (Boxing Day). A long way to go but obviously they feel he is one with potential to be mentioned in the same breath as Bewley & Brennan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

old bob at herne bay 828 Posted November 9, 2023 Think Poole 2024 will be a much improved side after their pretty dismal season in 2023. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What was dismal about it other than 2 disappointing meetings at the end of the season? One trophy won; finished Top of the League and reported increased attendances! I wonder how many other clubs had 'dismal' seasons? 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
