poole keith

ah "the peckham spring" appears again in wiltshire

people get older and lifes priorities change

i suppose im more interested in poole speedway than weymouth speedway but after the main meeting i will be more interested in watching the weymouth development team than listening to the poole press conference

cant see honda training up new staff,dilemma for existing workers they have to have one eye on the job market but if to many of them leave, honda will probably close the plant early

just fantastic,be great to see him at poole this summer,all the best ricky,a truly courageous and determined young man in a sport which is full of them

at least his company is not" Amazon" or "Iceland",that really would be to much travelling!!

at the moment matt is boxed in a corner with no purchaser and this addition of two co-promoters is" plan b" Should a buyer or buyers emerge i doubt very much they would want these two inexperienced chaps onboard(probably want guidance from matt though)Matt ford has given us poole supporters so much success and great riders to watch i hope he gets something out of it now to move on,easy in retrospect but timing is everything and should have sold 2/3yrs ago

attendance figures are a closely guarded secret in speedway so theres no proof of this "increase" and promoters can pretty much say anything,didnt think poole were regarded as particularly generous with youth admissions

would think demolition of the site,main grandstand,restuarant,bars kennel blocks,pits etc is a major project and the whole site would be no entry for the public under health and safety. Even tho the new buildings are pre built for assembly on site its still not a two minute job,plus services and groundworks The immediate problem i see is if they go ahead and move the speedway track in the lighting cant be moved until the dogtrack is moved in,which would mean cancelling the dog racing,as far as i know there are no plans for this,can they fit headlamps on the bikes??

or even oxford !!

well skids i spoke to member of the family a few years ago and that was most certainly not the way of things.

everybodys talking about team changes in the summer and how you immediately become championship winners but if the numbers dont fit your stuffed nothing to do with money,would imagine swindon and wolves would have loved to have made mid season changes this yr but had no chance.also wouldnt want to win a title again through benifiting from the closure of another club.anyway looking forward to another season with a team im happy with and will 100% support

of course only 3 teams wont make the play-offs

think chris louis really knows the time of day so wouldnt give up hope just yet gavin

i might be over optimistic blackheart but surely someone will take it on,albeit at a greatly reduced price,i have no knowledge of the actual figures involved but eventually surely matt would be better selling for say 40k than asking 200k and not selling,new owners would not have to buy the assets if they didnt want to.some prospective buyers might be deterred thinking matt is an almost impossible act to follow,but id much rather follow a mid table or worse team than have no team to follow,holidaymakers will turn up whatever the quality of the team!

recalculated when rye house results declared void,average fell by around 1.5 according to poole website

i would be pretty confident someone or a consortium will come in and buy poole speedway,however, any interested partys would be silly to show an interest now,its a business that is going fall in value with every passing month so wait to mid summer and then hit matt with an offer!!

do the pits have to be moved before the start of the season or will they be allowed to use existing pits? ditto with sound barriers?or does the existing pits have to be demolished before the the sound barriers can be constructed?

dont use it dc we all go private!

to be fair robin never said the season starts in march, he said thats when he could start worrying!!

is that the "last dog meeting" ever hyabb??

track staff would just love to see batch back!!!

could well be favourites! the two reserves would be there all season,are you happy with that? i sort of like the system where one reserve can regularly alternate with someone from the 1-5

good top 4, has howarth lost his way though? and reserves are too weak

i didnt say all doom and gloom tim just that the dog tracks will be divided into the haves and havenots,supposed reliable source reported this wk harlow,henlow,doncaster and central park will each sign a contract paying 20million to each one over 5yrs.Swindon and poole are in the rival group and will certainly not be offered anything similar,or indeed anything at all.both stadiums to be successful need prettymuch all the parts to be profitable.I am connected to both sports(more dogs)and want both venues to succeed now and long into the future.
