Asking if Plymouth are hoping to run is surely a fair question in.light of Mark Philips' recent statements re lack of finance?! It could have a bearing on the final points limit. Why would any club wish to lose a 'local derby' even if it means meeting 6 times a season? You are so tetchy Lewy!

The Facennas visited Matt inPoole a couple of seasons ago to get all the hints and tips to build year on year successful teams. Good to see they took it all on board at least for one season! Let's see what happens in 2024. (BTW are Plymouth definitely running)?

Long gone thank goodness!!

That's so true! And it's in Tenerife again(rather than uk) to discourage any promoters from walking out!!!

With Danny on the BSPL Board I doubt he'll make any announcements til after the AGM rubber-stamping in a couple of weeks time!

Rew has signed for Vojens

A Dane for a Wednesday track? Nah. Been there, done it!!

Believe again!!

Rew said he wouldn't do Championship in 2023 because it would be too much for his racing calendar despite detailed discussions with Matt/Danny before he put pen to paper for Ippo! I don't see that changing too much - unless there's been a big re-think by all concerned. As for the Premiership rumour there would need to be a complete 360° turnaround by Matt/Danny from only a few weeks ago. Crowds have been really good in Championship with approx 30% lower costs and I still maintain even if there was an attractive enough incentive then the Prem would need to allow Wednesday racing. After all Mons/Thurs are only a priority race night not a must!

My old grandfather clock has just stopped. Probably needs a wind-up!?

Basso wasn't a financial situation, it was the fixture clashes by continuing Wednesday racing with Poole!!

Happy Birthday Ben Cook!

Exactly!! someone released from another club or someone new to Championship?

Quick question - when has anyone ever bought something they've seen advertised on the back of a bus? Just asking......

He was making the point that as a successful promoter he could/would work with the Stox promoter who wanted to own the stadium,to run speedway successfully.

What, like adding his weight to the Save Coventry Stadium fight?!

I was going to say a resounding 'NO' - But if the Premiership (or whats left of it) allowed Poole to race Wednesdays, who knows? Although if he did I reckon he would want to be much more 'hands on' than being in France allows!

You clearly weren't at Wimborne Road a few weeks ago when Jack, his missus and new born baby were greeted by the Poole crowd and interviewed by Nigel in front of the main grandstand!

Call it 'the Cup for all Seasons'!

Is it? Not seen that anywhere.

It's an extra meeting for those that go for the racing. The only unfortunate thing with the Friday date means I shall miss my first home meeting this season!

Any team place for Kyle will depend on the timing and success of his shoulder op this winter. With it being a NHS op, who knows when it will happen or how long the recovery?

Assuming Leicester are still running NDL then surely the Thompsons will be riding for them on Saturdays?

Poole will have their usual 1-7 (excepting r/r for Anders). Joe Thompson should be available.

At one time Matt Ford was going into partnership with Terry Russell at Swindon. This was confirmed in one of the Speedway Podcasts - Lee Ashby's I think.
