Are you really a Pirates fan as you seem to be critical of quite a few things to do with Poole? Quite possible to be both critical and a fan, not everybody thinks the sun shines out of their promoter's rear. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted October 23, 2021 Paid 16 for Ben. Super performance. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 10,784 Posted October 23, 2021 Makes quite a difference if you've got the resources to go with a heavyweight top three and bring a top young talent like Basso over. Poole will do the double this week at a canter unless they encounter some very bad luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Blobby 2,662 Posted October 23, 2021 (edited) Hope we don’t do an afternoon meeting again. Track is slick and easy to ride. I’m saying that it’s been like that all season. Gone are the days were it was prepared grippy and difficult for the away riders. Winning half our home meetings this season says it all. well done to Poole, second leg a formality now.

old bob at herne bay 828 Posted October 23, 2021 (edited) If the meetings ever go ahead .....Glasgow will be a sterner test ...... at least their riders will have had time to prepare machinery. Depends very much on Craig Cook who on his day is the best rider in the 2 sides. Edited October 23, 2021 by old bob at herne bay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted October 23, 2021 Entertaining meeting. Ben Cook struggled to get to grips and Bailey didn’t do much but we were never going to give Monarchs a decent lead. After a couple of feel your way rides, Ben Basso was brilliant. Backed up our heat leaders with Danyon and it was job done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Craig came out of his sick bed on Friday and did an immense job , however struggled on Saturday, hopefully he will be feeling better by Tuesday Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
