Are you drowning your sorrows today after Tate's performance in Australia?

Tate had a bad day with bike issues but had otherwise been very good in Aus.

Worry about your own Aussie who was doing awful and resorted to faking an injury to save himself embarrassment

Think you'll need to pop to Bournemouth to get a big rock dummy for one of your Aussies, as he's spat one out already back home 😄

So that's Poole, Krakow and Brovst Richard has contracts with so far! Not bad for no sponsors, no bikes, no mechanic is it?!

If you read the whole article, it confirms that Poole Stadium is owned by BCP Council and only leased to G.I.. As Matt Ford - who returns to live back in Poole from France on a permanent basis - states he is in constant discussion over the longer term future of Poole Pirates with Clark Osborne and the Council, the latter wanting Poole Speedway (as the 2nd largest supported club in the area after AFCB) to remain in the Town.

Alternative sites are being looked at for the longer term while Pirates remain at the stadium on an ongoing year-to-year rental basis.

If anything else more specific is offered at this evening's Partner/Sponsor gathering, I'll report back............!

I see the names Osborne and Lewis and the talk of a new venue.

It's Swindon playbook all over again.

Osborne will have the Council covered, no doubt about that. As much of a loathsome man he may be, he is very good at covering the angles and playing the long game.

While you are at the meeting tonight, don't forget to get some information on this, I'm sure a lot of people will be interested 😜

As far as I am aware that has been the case for many years so not really news, I think the council have always wanted  us to stay but of course the land is very desirable.
