Looking at the weather, think its going to be rained off. Rain is due to hit around 7pm.

i thought the weather forecast  looked like maybe or maybe not which makes it tricky

I guess it depends how quickly it moves across from the west. Hopefully it is slower than they think so they can get the meeting in.

I think we will be absolutely fine. A risk of a few early evening showers but it should go ahead. Hopefully Plymouth will put up a good fight, especially bringing in Barker who loves the Poole track. I would like to see a tight meeting rather than the usual one sided slaughter.

Quite easy to look at RainToday.co.U.K. To see the actual rainfall. It has beefed up a bit since earlier and there is a thin band of rain pushing up from the Cherbourg Peninsular which could give us an hour or so of the wet stuff later on. Fingers crossed it’s not bad. At least Poland v England is on the box tonight as a fall back.

Never mind keeping it close, Plymouth should be going to Poole tonight looking into win, they have enough track knowledge and familiarity in their ranks to cause an upset.

Rain should be here shortly and last around 60-90 mins. Clear after that.

They may well have enough track knowledge but even so I believe Poole will see them off.

Rain lasted 10 mins if that. Almost cleared away now and dry for the rest of the day unless something not there at the moment develops.

Course they are coming to Poole looking to win! Kinda hoping Bjarne gets distracted by his love of Poole during the meeting though ;)

Also Poole need to swap the Ben's around, to go from 6 to 4 is a tough jump. I think Cook needs the H8 to help him along in the meeting a bit. Also Rory tends to team ride more than anyone else.

Plymouth are far stronger at reserve tonight. How we miss Stefan. But we have more top 5 strength. Should be a good meeting.
