mdmc82 2,878 Posted August 24, 2015 The meeting has been postponed. Definitely the right call. Shame Wolves & King's Lynn hadn't done the same after Kerr's crash 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Poole Quay 7 616 Posted August 24, 2015 One way or another I'm just glad the meeting is off. Sincere best wishes to Darcy on a speedy recovery and then we have to move on and get the show back on at a convenient date and when it is suitable for both teams. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hammer1969 431 Posted August 25, 2015 (edited) Chris Holder has just tweeted for fans not to donate to any accounts set up for Darcy as an official account will be set up in the next few days. Edited August 25, 2015 by hammer1969 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GoFastTurnLeft 74 Posted August 25, 2015 In some ways I was hoping for our first meeting back to be against Swindon. Maybe I'm just being a soppy old git, but Darcy has a special connection to both our clubs and it would've been nice to have our supporters come together. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YerRopes 3,009 Posted August 25, 2015 In some ways I was hoping for our first meeting back to be against Swindon. Maybe I'm just being a soppy old git, but Darcy has a special connection to both our clubs and it would've been nice to have our supporters come together. Agree with your sentiments GoFast... I'd like a Poole V Swindon PO Final and for the result to be a draw with no runoff's so both clubs can share in tribute to Darcy.. I am not particularly a fan of his but would love to see him back on a bike as he is the most talented rider I have ever seen.. He has done a brilliant job for the Robins and for that I thank him and I would love to see him achieve all that he can in the sport... Get well soon Darcy... 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skidder1 7,663 Posted August 26, 2015 As a fellow Poole fan has put on the Poole forum, wouldn't it be just the right thing for the next P V S meeting to be drawn 43-43?! Both sides to agree to drop 2 points each. DW#43 #getwelldarcy 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shaleshifter 177 Posted September 7, 2015 Tonight could be a rehersal for the playoff final with the Pirates clear in first position. Not taking anything away from our rivals. The results tonight will determine who Poole will select to face in the semi finals with Belle Vue still in the mix the Pirates dont have a good track record against the Aces in 2015. Hopefully all will be sorted after tonights meetings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully all will be sorted after tonights meetings. I thought the same. I don't think Swindon are as strong now with Kildemand instead of Ward and also with Zengi as a heat leader instead of second string. If Hans hadn't fell then bees would have only lost at the abbey by 4 and that was with King, Howarth & JK missing. They would have all scored more than the replacements did. I think Poole could beat Swindon at the Abbey and then on their last visit to Poole they were thrashed. Swindon also have the weakest reserve pairing on paper. Coventry are unpredictable at the moment. Been strong all year but recently had a dip. Harris is finding great form and Hans seems to be scoring better. Howarth knows Pooles track well. We have the reserve most likely to challenge Newman from the draft. However a lot will depend on what happens with JK replacement. Coventry & Poole ride each other's tracks well. Belle Vue seems to be a track Poole struggle on a bit, although I think Poole would do enough at home. However there's a question mark over Zagar now. Hard to tell who will face who Swindon will be looking to get something tonight. Prediction 58-32 Edited September 7, 2015 by mdmc82 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A ORLOV 8,628 Posted September 7, 2015 Tonights meeting will be tough for the Robins, I hope they put up a good performance and possibly get 1 point. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully all will be sorted after tonights meetings. I personally hope that the play-off teams aren't confirmed until after Wednesday's meetings!! MF seems in no particular rush to choose the semi-final opponents - until all teams' 1-7s are confirmed!!!! ps I hope I can get closer to the right result than I did v KL - so here goes 48-42 (unless both teams agree a 43-43 draw!)
