I really wouldn't worry yourself, nobody has a clue and its all speculation.

The greater good is surely about clubs being financially sound no matter what level they operate at. Poole have done and won the Elite/Premiership for several seasons eventually losing money and fans. Putting themselves at financial risk simply to make up the numbers in a smaller league does not make good business sense. And Poole is a business for the Fords not a hobby!!

Don't think some of these past posts do the comets any good, if you have dirty laundry do it in private not over the forum 🤔

I know the Polish press are not the most trustworthy source but a little uninspiring if true. King could be replaced with a grand Prix level rider for a similar average. I guess maybe we can hope we get Kowolik and Rushen at U21 reserve?

Any Monday in particular?

They always use a riders most recent average, so that'll be 8.64 (Ipswich average converted). Once Brennan has ridden in the Champ his old Poole average will be used for his rolling average, so expect it to jump up.

It is quite baffling why some would want what appears to be one of the few financially successful clubs to rip up their business plan and operating model to "do something different"... When that "something different" clearly wasn't working back when there were more teams in the top tier, and the sport appeared more stable and had more going for it, than it currently does... If I were running Poole I would expect a lot of incentives to move into the top tier to ensure my balance sheet wasn't negatively impacted, and was protected, and, if I didn't get them, then I would be quite happy to stay where I was...

It'll be a shame if they do that, but ultimately, so what? Winning the SoN and having a British World Champion - that doesn't ride here - has so far done very little to boost the standing of the sport in this country. If they choose to get a Polish licence, good for them, but at least we're doing what's best for us and trying to get some benefit.

It certainly done its job in the last meeting with Berwick, PK and Nichols was a fair test of it.

Sounds like Doyle, Musielak and King are the Heat Leaders in 2027. According to the Polish press, Bewley is back at Belle Vue and Woryna prefers to ride in Denmark.

Exactly this. We weren’t even told the date of the AGM in the first place. Ironically, that was pretty much leaked by Plymouth as well due to them publicly asking for financial help to raise funds by the 3rd of November!! This isn’t new either. We have to find snippets on here every winter of when the AGM is taking place, it’s shouldn’t be the case. As you rightly say, is it that difficult for the BSPL to name a date for the AGM, and then inform the very people who keep the sport in this country running, about delays and the reasons behind it? I’m not talking about a daily commentary here and release all details as we all understand negotiations can be delicate and confidential, but a simple “The annual AGM has been delayed to a later date whilst we negotiate a TV deal and/or attempt to bring another club in to the Premiership. More clarification will come in due course” That shouldn’t be difficult.

I’m not sure why people are so impatient? The league starts next April so does it really matter if the AGM is in November, December, January, February? If the wait means the return/reopening of a couple of tracks and a television deal then it’s worth the wait? If that also allows Plymouth some more time to get their air fence fund complete so they can run then that’s another good thing. Surely we all want as many tracks as possible running next season?

On another thread its reported that the Plymouth promoter has said its been postponed. He might need a delay to get a new air fence financed.

Typically classless from you, you may want to consider that these" forum fannies " probably, unlike you, post money across a turnstile and support Berwick Speedway in a very real way. That, IMO, entitles them to their opinion, even if I disagree with it. As for Jye`s comments, he can say want he wants, though he may want to consider he is slagging off those who go to paying his wages. Sometimes if you have nothing decent to say its best to say nothing and do you talking on the track.
