Anyone can be a good winner, it's being a good loser that counts And Fords pathetic fireworks and champagne spectacular a few years ago shows exactly what he is really like. 16 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

david2905 230 Posted October 15, 2013 Commiserations to all you losers who don't support the Poole Pirates, the best Elite League team over the years ! Small wonder there's such hatred for Poole with tools like you. Basic fact is the Brummies choked when it mattered. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevebrum 6,831 Posted October 15, 2013 No surprise that Greg didn't bother trying once he won his league medal. Soon to disappear again. In all seriousness it was great to see Greg in the UK for part of a season - just a shame we cant supply an EL to be proud of with ALL the top boys here. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OGT 612 Posted October 15, 2013 Small wonder there's such hatred for Poole with tools like you. Basic fact is the Brummies choked when it mattered. Let's face it, they just ran out of steam in the end. They've been riding above themselves all season and maybe could have done with a freshen up in the latter stages of the season, like a mystery injury or two, maybe a flu bug. Shame, just hope that the fans get to see the sport again in the city next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jimmy jimmy 298 Posted October 15, 2013 Birmingham performed brilliantly throughout the season, but in a play off situation, top end power will usually prevail and Poole have that in bucketloads with Ward and Hancock. Congratulations to Poole, when they list Holder they didn't just use guests and see the season out, they signed Hancock and rejigged the team, and went for it. Matt Ford is a very competitive guy who wants to win, he does it within the rules, uses them when he needs to (just like Coventry did in 2010 to keep Pawlicki at reserve). The Brummies just ran out of steam but should be proud of their season. I 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
