Okay so say Chris wants to be at Somerset with Jack then, Somerset want him on loan but Matt won't agree with that. What happens then? Chris has to go to Bspa for help? And who is the chairman again? Oh yeah, Buster Chapman Chris' bff!! Love to be in the room when that happens!

Then he can have a pay rise half way through the season!

Because he isn't that now? Think he's been hanging around with a certain Poole asset too long!!

It's Holder who won't have the choice! It could stop him riding for anyone. Though I wouldn't want any rider at Poole if they don't want to be there.

Who knows! Says he is releasing a statement within 2 weeks.

Looks like you won't be getting Robert Lambert then. He's put on social media that looking like he won't be riding in the UK.

Blame Chris for that!! He did say publically that Jack would be better than him...

Pretty big if!!

I think it's Chris. He seems to be in and out of this Poole team on a weekly basis this winter. If Somerset have signed Chris, can they just announce it!!

Get well soon Starman

Not really. Since I 'jumped on your post' as you call it, you have been a bit more positive and a more unbiased opinion. So well done, I knew you could do it!

Cos you always seem to bring the thread down all the time.

You are like a black cloud Gavan. Poole could sign the top 7 in the world and you would still say we are rubbish and everyone else is better!!

Our first two signings are Aussie actually (Brady and Josh!)

Sounds alright to me!

Not sure why a couple of Swindon fans are getting their knickers in a twist over this announcement. Are they worried?....

What are you saying? That Chris Holder posts his own fake news on his instagram account!! I'm guessing he has got it from Chris' instagram..

What about BV fans!!

But Chris isn't a top rider anymore, at this moment he would be third heatleader for Poole and should be paid accordingly!

Two signings on Mon according to the Echo and they will be at the Pirates shop on Tues. And the old fave he is referring to definitely has to be Chris Holder.

Depends if you go for long term or instant success (but then you are swapping riders about all the time). But I think Matt does it differently with different riders, cos with Brady he's been in the team because of the long term success/potential but people like Ellis and Newman it is what they do at the current time, that's why they have been in and out.

Has anyone ever thought Chris Holder might have already ruled himself out??!

Quite happy with that signing, i guess that was one of the surprise ones?

Ummm no, he can't even ride the track.

I'm not a fan of these surprise signings, much prefer the predictable ones!
