So u plan and say i dont have a full team that day because i have a selfish rider who has no commitment to the team and country that gave him his chance in the sport.

In Zachs defence, he wasn’t going to do championship and only did it after a bit of extra persuading after the Anders situation. Maybe the promise that they’d be much more lenient in allowing him to miss meetings, as the championship this season, is rightfully the bottom of his priorities

Is it so difficult to understand? He signed his Polish contract well before he knew he was riding Championship with Poole.....And he only signed for Poole when there were all the doubts about whether the Premiership would run. Poole are happy to have him back albeit missing some fixtures, after not being able to agree terms with Rowe.

Granted it has only been two meetings but Kyle looks to be settling in nicely. He certainly appears to be well motivated and committed, even though he's only signed for 28 days. I'm begining to think he might prove to be a better option to Gilkes. Anyone know if that's a possibility, re the contract situation with Dan etc?

"I am very unhappy today with the fella who is doing my double glazing installation. I asked him a few weeks ago if he could book today in his diary, but, instead, he told me that he had another job already booked elsewhere, and it was a bigger job, thus will earn him several times more than mine will, and that all the equipment needed has been bought, and the people having the work done have already paid a considerable down payment"....

"He also added that the other job will last six months, with several other dates already agreed through to completion. So. He basically has told me what dates he can do if I want to use his services during that timeline".....

"I am very disappointed with his attitude"....

Don't worry Mike, Geoff will soon pipe down when their Danes are missing because they have to ride in Denmark or CC cba.

And you lot won't when a danish fixture clashes with a pilots meeting and Mr Lawson or Mr cook are unavailable 🤔.

Thank you both, thats great info and really reassuring, not been to Poole for well over a decade and will have my little one with me so it's good to know we should be able to park at or near the stadium. Really looking forward to it and hopefully we'll see a Pirates win

I'm sure you'll be fine. I think the bumper bank holiday crowd on Friday caught me out. We arrived at 5:30 and just missed out. I'm assuming the school was full too, as we weren't  directed there.

Worst case scenario, the Dolphin centre multi storey is only half mile away. It's £2:60 after 6pm for all night.

Lawson has already stated he will only be available for Denmark on Wednesdays when Poole don't have a fixture. Danes operate a squad system in any case.

Would rather park in town multi storey at a cheaper cost than pay Osbourne's company £4.00☹️

I am sure both will prioritise Poole over Denmark although Cook may have to ride in Poland as seems they have priority on his services but I would be surprised if he missed any home meetings.

Lawsons Danish side are a rider down now as Lawson stuffed him into the fence at Poole so he maybe called on more often

Strange that Tobias doesn't blame him then!

He doesnt blame him because Lewy is a liar. If you look at the footage Tobi moved out to stop Lawson's  run round the outside.

In tobys own words "being hit from behind is hard to save " that is fact whether it was intentional, reckless or malicious is up for debate.

Not quite sure how he could 'stuff him into the fence' when RL was on the outside all the way down the back straight and into the 3rd bend. 

Imo RL was correctly excluded as Tobi was about half a wheel length in front when the crash happened. Nothing malicious or intentional. They were both chatting together as mates in the pits immediately beforehand.
