Wake up your not going to pick riders who hate it are you 

I was joking. It's the funniest result of the season IMO.

For tonight I will take Gavan off blocked and read his posts. Should be hilarious. I have been told he has been gloating for weeks that Poole are the easy opposition. Has he got the guts to come on here and congratulate Poole for their win tonight, or will he run and hide?

As he never goes he must be reading this. So come on Gavan, do you have it in you to say Poole were the better team tonight, or will you just run and hide and hope it’s all a bad dream?

I am waiting.......tick tick tick tick.......

Don't think will see him for a bit

Told ya :blink::blink:.. Seriously didn't see that coming. Well done the Pirates.

Nobody did BB, even Poole fans like Shovlar said this was a write off with a weakened team.

This is certainly not aimed at the majority of Ipswich fans. Just one. Who seems elusive tonight for some reason. Where are you Gavan? Gavan your time is up! Better send out a search party.

None of us have ever seen him at Foxhall anyway......

Now that really would be a bottle job & only South Coasters do that.

Farcical guests, but at least it’s saved me going all the way to Ipswich tomorrow. Just not worth the time/fuel/effort when a team is put out like this to just make up the numbers (7).

The team is there to fulfil its obligation. Nothing more.

Mmm!

Very disappointing result.  Congratulations to Poole fully deserved.  

Just 3 heat advantages all night and one of those was when Klindt packed up in front. Leaving the stadium it was still 23C so keeping moisture into the track was very difficult.  Maybe not riding at home for 3 weeks contributed and maybe the track has been tyre packed by the stockcars which were their all last weekend. 

However every rider gave their all but we were second best out of the starts all night. 

We are just as capable of going to Poole and winning there.

Did anyone predict Poole would win tonight, seriously?

I thought it would be another King's Lynn match, a walloping

Perhaps complacency had set in. The Witches just thought all they had to do was turn up and Pirates would just roll over. Or perhaps they have been riding above themselves and tonight reality cut back in?

Or perhaps Pirates are lucky to have the best manager in the business who can motivate a team not expected to win. Middlo is a very good man manager and knows just how to get the best out of a team. Whilst it was an impossible task on Monday, the Ipswich track is more similar to Wimborne Road in shape and size. He got them fired up from the start and determined to battle for every point. Perhaps Hawkins hasn’t yet got that ability?

Well yes, we do well at slick tracks!
