The pinnacle so far was the semi final second leg but hoping next week can top that I was at Ipswich when Swindon gave us a masterclass and we cant allow that to happen again That said last time we won by 6...........i think we need a minimum of 12 points as we dont go well at Swindon............ Best of luck to both sides (but more for us)..at least this year we will have a fair final So many digs you might need a new spade for Christmas! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fair enough, but we were 10 up not 12 Ipswich were the ones with a 12 point lead half way through the first leg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You mean an epic choke like Poole, the team who finished top, so how exactly do you quantify a choke? only winning or losing by 2 on aggregate?

You couldn’t make it up. But you do in spades. It’s quite hilarious reading your posts as you type away in a blind uncontrollable fury, all alone in your life full of venom and bile and regret. We all have to chuckle at these frankly, boring and repetitive rants saying the same thing over and over again ad nauseam, as if you think people on here haven’t read it the first time it has to be repeated at least a dozen times more. If it makes you feel better making up the rubbish you posted above, so be it. The rest of us know differently. I would have said, enjoy the final and let the best team win, but we know who that is already. And frankly, I don’t believe you give a damn anyway, as you can’t be bothered to even attend either meeting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Let’s be honest we would have had 60+ if it wasn’t for the rain just before the meeting. Their doctored track in the second leg wouldn’t have mattered. Just bad luck for us at the wrong time. Just the way it goes sometimes. Edited October 12, 2019 by Steve Shovlar 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Please don’t speak for me I have no problem with Gavan at all but I do have a problem with certain Poole posters trying to wind him up! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Of course you have no problem with him. He doesn’t sit on the Swindon thread every waking minute making trolling, abusive remarks like a stuck record. You would soon get fed up with him if every one of his posts slagged off anything to do with your club from Rosco to Terry Russell to every team member to track staff.

Under normal conditions, Ippo dont stand a prayer. We didn’t “stand a prayer” of making the play offs by most on here at the start of the season, and we didn’t “stand a prayer” of making the final either when your lot fought back to take a 10 point lead after the first leg. One thing is certain, the majority on here are absolutely dreadful tipsters! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
