First of course it's to the newsagents, conveniently situated next to the station to pick up the speedway star. Probably will av read it all by the time I land in Poole at 1240! Time now 542. Better check there's no moose loose aboot the hoose before I leave! Edited November 4, 2021 by PirateShip Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It wud've been nicer to av commissioned Poole pottery (or other similar companies) to make a trophies, or something different from plastic. I'm sure previous trophies av been from metals but never mind hey, plastic is the way to go it seems. Wonder if the Premier League in football have a plastic trophy? Ermmmm nope!........ plastic yuk yuk yuk!!!! The trophy I had to move was metal on a plastic base. Not the best I admit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If there is, it certainly isnt advertised or shouted about as far as I can see... With no major sponsors, I wouldnt think it's a major "winner" for either team, but both teams reaching the final should make a "few quid"... Obviously how much money they didnt make earlier in the season due to some fans giving the "qualifiers" a miss some weeks is something that isnt quantifiable.. Yes they'll reap the financial rewards of running on an off race night in early November and then in the following season, if they're still in business, they can reap the rewards of winning the Championship by failing to ever mention it ever again to promote their business Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
