"The search continues......" To me that sounds like they have options for signings, but are happy to use guests as they feel they are stronger (perhaps not for long) and want to find the best rider available (obviously). So I don't see why the BSPL should grant am extension of the guest facility for Bowes in this instance. For a heat leader, I can understand clubs struggling for a replacement, but for a reserve, when there's options (Fredriksen, Bowtell, Morley) 28 days is long enough. But this should be for all teams, not just Poole. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEVEHOLS54 Posted Wednesday at 10:19 AM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 10:19 AM (edited) I can't help thinking that the Ford's who are masters of drip feeding press releases are gaslighting us on the new signing situation. Get this feeling that they know they are nailed on for at least top 4 and are happy to use the shrewed option of guests up to 5.05 until the play offs. The possible use of Jenkins tonight then again if 7 days apart plus able to use the likes of Kennett when available and not fixture clashing plus Ablitt/Hagon/Foord should easily help them into the play offs with 4 of their 7 matches being at home. This as the POL/Danish & POL U24 fixtures scale down come September with many teams out of play offs and more riders becoming available. It could also be the Fords don't want to invest in an overseas young talent financially with the costs no doubt involved. That espcially with Matt now back jointly running the club if that has added overhead to running costs.

Matt has always done the rider deals and contracts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bitza Posted Wednesday at 01:07 PM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 01:07 PM I'm not a great fan of conspiracy theories but, could it be that since Bowes' injury 28 days is up that matter's relating to Poole's Guests are recieving greater scrutiny at the moment. Zach's 75% facility, Jenkins's ban? Or is it just how these matters are dealt with ordinarily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happens to many times with him …. Granted he may have had family issues regarding looking after his child…. But as he says he had all day to find someone to look after his child and didn’t and then let Ipswich know around 5.40pm tonight and that’s shocking when he could have told the club this morning he might have an issue The man is a liability for us a team man and not one Ipswich fan has a good word to say about him … we want people that give 110% for our club … Lawson doesn’t give a crap ….. you all might think the sun shines out of his ass your welcome to him 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
