Where you getting financial issues from? Honestly you lot live in cuckoo land! If you’re getting anyone it’ll be Bowes.

One person thinks it! Worky announced they are coming back to the tapes next year. You don't do that unless there are doubts in the first place? Then people will just assume it's financial.

Out of interest regarding Zach/Anders, when they switched riding positions did one drop off & one go better? Just people saying about Anders not hitting double figures much, obviously heat 13 on outside gates is rough some time to score points from

From gbspeedway.com

Rowe averaged 1.8 more af no 3 while Zac Cook averaged 0.7 more.

Don’t rate Bowes.

Doesn't read well does it no tv deal at the moment a possible 5 team premiership , that can't be feasible and even five sounds dubious, the championship should be okay if Mildenhall enter into it.

Hopefully something will be pulled out of the bag but being realistic what can they do if no tv deal no money for top men they can't go three home and away that would be suicide but it seems its going to be more sticking plasters on the same old format.

I can't see Mildenhall stepping up. 

They have already said that they are happy with NORA (things can change obviously) and their fence solution does not match SCB requirements - hence why they chose the NORA route for this season

It's rumoured thatToby's Danish League commitments next year will be Wednesdays rather than spasmodic  weekends this season.

That team comes to 40.28 without reductions and 39.75 with 

Lawson 9.83 (9.59)

Rowe 7.57 (7.38)

Cook 7.34 

Bowes 5.63

Bailey 4.00 

Cairns 3.91 (3.81)

Rushen 2.00 

definatley a possibility and if Cook goes then I’d take Kerr back.

I was basing it being a 40 points limit, which it of course might be lower, a lower limit may suit Poole if they have got Cooper

Was it really only three seasons Bagpuss ? I thought he was there for a bit longer but I was getting more interested in night clubs at that time, I seem to remember Knight going to Berwick to make way another Mike Lee comback but that season the old Mike was long gone I remember him following Andy Meredith in one race when Andy was essentially a wobbler, Mike kept lining him up but just didn't have the bottle to make the pass.

Yep three full seasons, he did five meetings at the end of 1990 after that Bradford World Final appearance and then 91, 92 & 93. 

Lee was 1991 and what a waste of everyone's time that was. Had Knight stayed instead we would have finished much higher than 8th.

Jeez where has the time gone, I remember Henka's debut possibly it was against Cradley his first three rides he looked pretty average but by the fourth ride he had weighed the track up and came from the back to win in style pretty much from then on he was a force at Saddlebow Road.

Loram was a great rider to watch but Henka in full flow was a cut above even Mark.

The 40 point limit was agreed for 3 years (unless they change it at agm)!

[Pirates Of Poole]

If Zach does not return I can’t see Bowes being at Poole. No Zach I think we would go for another rider with a slightly higher average

Certainly Harris suggested he had already signed for Glasgow and that it would be two leagues.

Bomber said his first contract was done. I believe that to be Kings Lynn.

With the rumoured new NL average rule Rushen could come in on a 4pt average for the Championship

Must be Bowes then if SteveLyric with his inside knowledge of Poole hits the like button 😀.

Don't see this as a League winning team. But we can't be greedy after the last 2 seasons incredible success which may be even better come Wed/Fri (weather depending)

But the chance of having some of the best youngsters such as Bailey/Rushen/Cairns would be an exciting prospect in itself.

Hopefully would win most home matches to give the Poole Fans plenty to cheer about.
