He’s too much of a moron to apologise 😂😂

Definitely wasn’t as big compared to the last 2 times Ipswich visited. I’d say no more than 1500

I like how George says Cookie is sidelined that's a new one 😂

Great guess. Hopefully Gladiator Phil will send an apology for his responses!

The only team I could see him strengthening would be Berwick in place of Wood?

Good point perhaps not enough to play with

How many points did they have left after Scott as Ritchings is 2.35 now rather than than a 2.00.

Well he does seem to have improved a little lately, dont know why Plymouth didnt go for Ritchings.

Rather have Trigger tbh, who was better at Poole. Cluff struggled to stay on the bike last time.

Your Bandits will operate rider replacement for the injured Danyon Hume and employ a guest to cover for Craig Cook, sidelined for seven days after missing Monday’s Oxford Spires fixture at Sheffield with a severely elevated heart rate. Taken from website

They prob just wanted someone experienced in at reserve with Will. You don't know what Vinnie will do meeting to meeting. He has the potential to improve more than Starke but too unpredictable to call in the winter. Although seems a bit calmer now!

The title of this topic refers to the recent meeting between Workington and Poole. Any general discussion about the whys and wherefores Poole have the team line up they have, should be discussed under the general "Poole" section !

If that was the case that was a bit short sighted of the promotion. Vinnie is far more likely to improve over the season.

Dodged a bullet by missing another one at Owlerton and watching the abysmal TNT broadcast instead. The track prep over the last couple of years from Trollope has got worse each week, does he actually listen to what the club/riders ask or go on his own merry way? Big applause though for Flint, takes some doing for a Rising Star to go through the card with a 5 ride paid maximum

Hope it better entertainment than Sheffield's last visit.

I’d say Douglas definitely helped his average decrease last night especially going through the motions in ht15, prior to last night he was 0.01 above Becker. Can see some tactical positioning by the Lions on Monday to keep only Fricke above Becker’s average

Sat for Plymouth at Berwick

Mitchell Cluff anyone?

Struggled when with Poole few weeks ago but that was then

By my reckoning, this is the last Lions fixture to affect rolling averages to take effect from the beginning of August. Lions are playing a very calculated but risky game regarding averages and R/R eligibility. Dougy and Masters are below Becker’s average by half a point at the most although one more match probably won’t affect team average positions. So far so good in covering for Becker but if Fricke cannot take an R/R ride, the covering team strength options change with a reserve needing to take one of Becker’s rides. (No disrespect to Kemp I should add, as I think he is performing admirably at No.6, but he isn’t Max Fricke). Which leads me on to a comment made by Dave Rowe on TNT (on his coverage of the BV meeting) when he mentioned that Becker could be back on a bike next month. Anyone care to expand on this? Unlikely, but if Luke could pick up where he left off, the Lions would be stronger than at present due to the pressure off others not having to take extra rides. Now on to Gilkes. Anyone know of his injury update (can’t remember what happened to him)? He’s easily the best rider we’ve had in the RS position. With Becker and Gilkes back on board, I’ll stick my neck out and would back the Lions against anyone at present over two legs.

Berwick reserves will need a decent night.Joe Thompson and Lasse are not bad second strings to have round Berwick

When is he guesting?

Yip😂👍

I was impressed with them at Glasgow. Klindt particularly. Berwick should be alright but I would expect Plymouth will get a jolt with Scotty coming in.

Do you mean Tobias Thomsen?😃
