Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted August 22, 2017 A very early start for the travelling Belle Vue fans who want to make the trip to Dorset on Bank Holiday Monday for 11 am. The good news for them is that the roads will be quiet that time of the morning so there shouldn't be any hold ups. A 5.30 am start should get them to Wimborne Road in good time. Poole's lineup order changes with Timo Lahti dropping to reserve. As he had his best meeting for Poole on Monday this could be good news. Starke moves up into the team. Lahti might be getting 6 or 7 rides depending on what situation Pirates find themselves in. It's a must win meeting for Poole to give themselves a chance of 4th. Defeat would most certainly end any chance of making the playoffs this season. Our form has improved after a dreadful period of defeats but this is going to be a very tough test. Belle Vue need the win to keep the pressure up on Swindon for top spot. Could be a close one. Thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pirates Of Poole 761 Posted August 22, 2017 Going to be very tight but with Timo at reserve now we could just nick this by 4 points. Track will be slick as 11am start. BV will also need the points so Poole must bring their gating gloves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lisa-colette 6,018 Posted August 22, 2017 I'm not sure how anyone can get up at 5am!!! Fair play to any BV fans who do that though. I'm sure you'll be rewarded with a win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skidder1 7,632 Posted August 23, 2017 So will Fricke be back from his injury? Will Cook be serving his SCB punishment for his 'fours discretion'?? The silence is deafening!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aces51 2,778 Posted August 23, 2017 So will Fricke be back from his injury? Will Cook be serving his SCB punishment for his 'fours discretion'?? The silence is deafening!! What is a fours discretion? You could use your discretion about discussing an alleged indiscretion. Innocent until proven guilty in my book particularly when you look at the parties allegedly involved.
