Pirates Of Poole 761 Posted September 30, 2013 If THJ is on form tonight I feel this will make us stronger in heat 14. Rohan's other 3 riders will be taken by Dyer and Josh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SCB 0 Posted September 30, 2013 (edited) Any view as Tungate is out as to how weak this makes Poole ? If Josh G rides as he did last week it's bad news for Poole. If he rides as he has done most of the season then it'll make little difference. It does mean Poole reserve are far more important now. Fingers crossed R/R scores 5 or 6 and Poole have nothing to complain about. Edited September 30, 2013 by SCB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So what can you tell me about the number 8 rule, apparently we are allowed Kyle Newman as a number 8 tonight because we are operating r/r and he can take any of the r/r rides if needed. Doubt very much if he will be needed but you never know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
E I Addio 15,845 Posted September 30, 2013 Yes I can feel a lucky night coming on! Tungate injury we can cope with especially if dyer and josh ride like they can Ah, so there we have it. If Poole win it will be luck. We'll bear that in mind if and when The Three Stooges start crowing about a win or bleating about a defeat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted September 30, 2013 It doesn't, it strengthens them. Your trolling holds no bounds. Clearly anyone with speedway knowledge will know it weakens us as a 7 man team is always better then a 6 man team. Tungate has ridden well enough this season top be a meeting winner on several occassions and can pop out and beat virtually anyone. It's the same as Swindon losing Morris. Suddenly Kennett and the reserves can have his rides. All nonesense. Been raining here all morning here in Wareham. Not been forecast so hope the track is covered or we could have wet conditions tonight. Lets hope for a nice hard battle, some great racing and all riders stay safe. My heart says we can do it but my head says no chance for us tonight, and I think what my head is saying is correct. Matt says in todays paper it's probably the last time we will see Darcy in Pirate colours due to Sky pulling out and a likely much lower points limit on the cards. Hopefully the place will be packed. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
foreverblue 6,096 Posted September 30, 2013 I hope it drys up for tonight as i feel a wet track will suit Swindon better than us as it always favours the away team when track conditions are not normal. I think the result depends on which THJ turns up, the one who is capable of a maximum or the one we saw at Swindon. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If he puts in a performance that most know he is capable of then it will give Poole every chance. If not then I can't see Poole getting close Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
