Shaleshifter 177 Posted May 8, 2022 After last weeks disappointing result and performance down at Plymouth the Pirates take on the Diamonds at Wimborne Road. This should be a straight forward victory on paper but there is no room for complacency. Thoughts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lisa-colette 5,993 Posted May 8, 2022 (edited) A couple of their riders are good at Poole like Wright and Starke. Score will depend on who they get to guest? Edit - But definitely won't be 75-15 !! Edited May 8, 2022 by lisa-colette Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tractor on track more than riders. As for Wednesday, a very easy Pirates win. Hopefully Newcastle will put up a fight and not simply capitulate. 58-32 ish.

Wasn't a great advert for speedway at Leicester with the track issues & in some races you could tell riders were riding round rather than racing. Ironically the fastest times ever were being produced around there. After heat 2 tractor came out after nearly every heat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
