A mere 9 miles away So does it count as the outskirts of Glasgow then? I must admit I am enjoying my geography lesson. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PA postcode so it’s Renfrewshire on the outskirts of Paisley , although Paisley joins more or less onto Glasgow at Ralston and Cardonald. Geography lesson over.

Even if Craig is under the weather , its not huge issue . Our second strings and reserves could tip the meeting in our favour . If we can edge a win tomorrow night , top spot becomes a realistic proposition , but whether we finish first or second is pretty academic . On present form I dont fear anyone over two legs Don't think Craig Cook has ever been that good at Poole so not a big miss. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lbw 869 Posted July 12, 2022 (edited) Ready, Steady, Cook Chris Readshaw (Glasgow), Paul Stead (Poole), Craig Cook (Glasgow), Ben Cook (Poole) Don't know why I did the thinking into this but when u av 5 minutes to waste this is wot me noggin comes up with! Actually didn't realise that Paul Stead had ridden for Poole '79, one of Long Eaton Invaders' '84 National League title winning heroes Yep a pointless post?

I can remember two or three very good meetings for BV and Lynn there, like many away heat leaders though over the years he has had nights at Poole where he's struggled. He's mega inconsistent this year but you would always want your own 1-7 riding if possible. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He has been more consistent this year so maybe he will come good tomorrow if he rides but I obviously hope he will have a stinker!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jaizer 2,864 Posted July 12, 2022 I'd be surprised if danyon and Ben weren't the top men at Poole. Danyon is flying atm, and importantly making very good starts. One of those meetings need everyone score 6/7 points and be in with a shout Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Got 11 in playoff final and 8+2 in the league meeting last season. I'd say that is quite good for him as took him a few seasons to get to grips with Poole. But in last few weeks going from getting maximums to scoring zero at Glasgow, goodness knows what he is going to do! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
