Don’t think I’ll ever see a home meeting again were masters and Pickering pick up 2 wins between them. 

It's not exactly a new thing. Take the last 3 home meetings from last season:

Glasgow KOC (55-35). Sam 2 Josh 1, total just 3 from 9 rides, despite the large margin of victory.

Glasgow POSF (47-43). Sam 2 Josh 0, total 2 from 9 rides.

Poole KOC (43-47). Sam 2 Josh 0, total 2 from 9 rides.

Add in Friday night (2 from 10 rides) and it would seem that certain so-called top riders struggle when facing difficult opposition. Or, put it another way, perhaps they're not actually as good as everyone seems to think they are.

I think he thought Cook was a little hard and caused him to go down. Nothing in it though and I think Josh was just frustrated at how the evening had gone tbh. 

A case of 'tough Cookie' perhaps?

I hope you are right but I just don't see anyone bettering pugwash over two legs.

Poole aint that good IMHO, especially if you soften up Danny King. he's a bit hit n miss under pressure.

Less of the name calling thank you!  Think you'll find Glasgow good chance of winning at Poole after stealing two riders of our title winning team 

Or maybe made them better offers.

Just a thought that might have been the case.

Maybe not seeing as Hume only went after no room at Poole

So we didn’t steal him then bit of a contradiction Lisa.

Ok we stole Basso but in all fairness we did give you Lawson for him.

So technically it was a swap deal and not theft.

Okay I'll try hard to let it go now, well until 13th July anyways

Lawson in place of sarjeant as partner is about to have their second child.

Do well to hit 30 now.

If he is on decent machinery he could go well.

If being the key word though.

Didn't fancy sarj to score much today tbh. Don't think make huge amount of difference

One of Lawson's meeting last season would've scored 6 or 7 if race ended on the 3rd lap
