This team is giving me the feels of 2007 with a few young riders in the team! When we had Kennett, Doyle and Batch all in their early 20s.

Berwick might even do better than Glasgow at this rate!

Steve Worrall confirmed. Gonna be weird next season with Steve in red and Tom in blue!

He would start at No1 though

Yeah, good point. Just looking at first couple of meetings will be against Oxford and Plymouth in the BSN trophy, I am assuming. So would be tough having Sam or Scott in 2 races on debut potentially. Haven't checked who has higher average out of them two. But again I can see why they would want to keep Ben and Zach partnership together. I suppose try one riding order and if it doesn't work as hoped can always swap it around.

Yeah I got it wrong. I thought there is 20 left not 20 used lol

No, my reading that is bad rather than maths lol So 8.23

Assuming figures on confirmed signings thread is correct and with Hook being a 4 and Newman 5.51. There would be 10.75 left!

I get why people want to keep the Ben and Zach partnership going. But there are going to be 4 riders who never rode for Poole before next season. So I think for at least first month of the season, Ben should be at 5 whilst others settle in. Not my decision though!

About time! As I assume the BSN trophy will still be regionalised.

Looking at averages his is below BB's. Sedgman is above though. Also Josh Pickering, but might be too high?

I think Oxford and Redcar will get off to strong starts as they don't have many changes. But barring any injuries we should just improve as the season goes on imo.

Tbf he did get a few paid wins. And when he guested for Poole last season he would have won H2 if Rowe didn't try and race him for it!

If anyone missed the Instagram live the other night and wants to watch it. @Arthur54

Haha. As long as he does the first home meeting, be fine

And if he does we can just have a guest lol.

. Do you mean as in he recommended him? As don't think there will ever be another Darcy.

Batch's average is lower than Barker's though?

But tbf press releases never say if they are on loan or been bought as an asset anymore. I assume he is on loan otherwise they would have made a big thing of being an asset last night? Although if our future is in any doubt then no point buying anyone for the time being imo.

If you want to read into absolutely anything esp on the socials then Michael West and Jacob Hook have 'liked' some of the Poole announcements so far this winter (Hook liking the Ben Cook announcement and Tom's last night) Might mean something, might mean absolutely nothing

If it doesn't won't be far off imo. Have to remember how much weaker the league is going to be next season. We seem to have the same discussion but with different riders each season FB! Brady Kurtz, Rory Schlein, Steve Worrall. Can't remember if you were one of the Poole fans unsure of Lawson coming in 2022 or not lol. Maybe I am just overly optimistic. But Rickardsson only scored 6 as an away rider before signing for Poole. So I'll wait til at least May before I start worrying about the team

Equipment wise he is having 8 bikes, so 2 in each league. Back in the day Bjarne Pedersen did 4 leagues at GPs! So it is doable just have to be very prepared and organised.

Oh good. I do love a shock signing Which no one has really had yet as everyone seems to be rumoured way in advance!

Both Tom and Leon slightly out of their comfort zone next season, so will be interesting to see how they do.
