Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted June 16, 2022 Just ordered the live stream. £11.99 is cheaper than £100 fuel round trip +£20 entry and prog. Plus a days travelling in 30 degrees and getting home at 4am. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted June 17, 2022 Looking at the lineups, Poole look stronger. Downside is matches are not run on paper and lesser riders like Lambert and Kennedy can be match winners at home. Add to that current form, or lack of, from Drew and Nathan and we could end up with a result like last season. Drew needs to get over his prang a couple of weeks ago and start scoring again. His confidence surely can’t be so fragile that a fall, albeit fairly nasty, sets him back like it has. From winning heats with ease, suddenly he’s tailed off at the back. He is better than that and no is the time to show it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just as much of a concern is that both Cooks didn't exactly cover themselves with glory last season when Poole and Plymouth visited Scunny. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted June 17, 2022 That’s frustrating. 10-2 down to pull it back only to have Ben Cook shed a chain in heat 14 to give a 3-2 to Scunthorpe and Douglas hold off a titanic fight with King in heat 15 to get them the victory they didn’t deserve. Good news is Drew Kemp came back to form. King still got serious issues with his bikes. But a much better performance from the team after last weeks capitulation. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lisa-colette 6,032 Posted June 17, 2022 (edited) Would have taken a six point loss before the start. Very unlucky with H14. Not sure about the choice for H15? But that is all I will say as we don't see the discussion for it prior. Edited June 17, 2022 by lisa-colette Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If I’ve read it right Coles was ahead of Ablitt and Scunthorpe on a 5-1 when he fell ….. so how is Cook packing up unlucky? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, well not like Gavan to be objective when it comes to Poole is it! Well done to Scunthorpe, I think whoever won deserved it but they probably edged it for me, well they were winning most of the time anyway! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
