As I said it's simple psychology. 2003 ko cup final. AJ and Janniro were jumping up and down celebrating cos they had a 12/14 point agg lead after about H7/8 ish of course Coventry didn't end up winning.

Other than the fans of these clubs no one else will really care. We all know with Poole in the final passions are raised sky high. There are no neutrals. And that’s the truth whether you like it or not. What a clown Play off finals should always have Poole in lol CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP Edited September 29, 2019 by Gavan 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But then again, they were definitely going to lose on aggregate last night weren't they 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shame your riders didn’t raise their passions sky high last night. You can answer for a lot of neutral fans can you, a lot of neutrals will be glad you’re not in it. The playoff final will be better without Poole because the better team won. Edited September 29, 2019 by Bash 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kurtz and kiddie Holder don't have same attraction. They are an average side now compared to then. Edited September 29, 2019 by auntie doris 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How crap would the play off final have been if Poole had made it............a team of 3 riders and 4 individuals.......would have been steamrollered by Wolves or Swindon...............Wolves easily beat Poole home and away by 49-41 and 55-35...........Ipswich beat Wolves at Foxhall and drew away A final of Wolves v Ipswich if that happens will obviously be a better spectacle then Wolves thumping Poole Edited September 29, 2019 by Gavan 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted September 29, 2019 I stand by my statement. Not talking about crowd sizes. Talking about personal opinions. If it was a Swindon v Poole final or Wolves v Poole final most neutrals would be rooting for Swindon or Wolves. Wolves or Swindon v Ipswich? Neutrals don’t care who wins do they?
