Shovlar again spouting this usual crap and bluster Harris scored 13 points over 2 legs….. blimey Hans got 11 and 12 in 2 home meetings against Poole Poole can only beat whats in front of them but they have took the luck when it’s come there way and with a good guest in Zach Cook in the home leg Neither Cooks were any help in the away leg and in my opinion reasonable to think Harris would perform better in the away leg judging by his Premiership Grand Final performances, I don't know why he was below par last night ashe usually performs well at Leicester, I also thought Peterborough would struggle without Hans. but Craig Cook did well. Rory apparently aggravated a shoulder injury in the home leg but you wouldn't have noticed last night, he was flying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well done to Poole anyway.....and I say that through gritted teeth....but there you go, I am proud to say I have managed it. Good job you didn't spend any time looking because he couldn't make it. Thanks for the congratulations, we were just better than Leicester last night. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Best racing I've seen produced at Leicester. I had other plans for yesterday Rob, so didn’t go. Wish I had gone as the other plans came to nowt. Luckily Andy put up clips of every heat so I could watch the action more or less as it happened. The good news is that whoever we play in the final streams their meetings live, so no 8 hour drive to jock land. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Watched two from Glasgow, which also has a bonus of being a top racetrack, and one from Edinburgh, which isn't the best track by a long chalk but the stream is good.

Yes It is a shame Eurosport do not cover the Championship playoffs, I am sure it would make great TV. Edited October 17, 2021 by foreverblue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You clearly thought we would lose on Saturday & were very pessimistic about the outcome after our narrow win Wednesday. You must learn to be more positive & have faith!!! 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You make more of it than I do. I am not overly pessimistic, just more realistic than expecting a 5-1 or 4-2 every heat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
