I forgot the pass in heat 2 where Nicol took Ablitt. And heat 8 when Hume went around the outside of B Cook entering bend 3. Seems sour grapes are out in force to deflect admitting their team took a beating. So many passes last night. A great nights entertainment with the big crowd going home very happy. More next week please! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some Glasgow fans are blaming everything on it, when it wasn't as bad as you make out. I bet if it was watched back there were more passes last night than at Edinburgh and Berwick put together last weekend. Yeah I hate using that as an excuse . That's what the Monarchs use after a defeat , we don't want to go down that road . After all , good or bad , the track is the same for both sides 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I don't think it affected him, it looked like his number one bike was working great so he changed it, second bike was better but he was clearly disappointed. It has been said before why he left and I have tongue in cheek mentioned about him doing some Wednesday meetings but the booing was mixed with cheering so not so bad. On the other hand Craig Cook has never ridden for us but as you say he will always get booed at Poole, we don't forgive or forget!! Idk FB! He looked a bit sad and put out in the pits.

HGould Posted July 14, 2022 Report Share Posted July 14, 2022 I guess the Sport should at least be grateful that you didn't have to resort to Lawson ramming opposition amidships this week to win.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alta Posted July 14, 2022 Report Share Posted July 14, 2022 Let's be honest I as a glasgow fan of too many yearsI have forgotten, history tells us a win at Poole is just never on the agenda.Probably exceeded expectations in my view last night.Track conditions have bound to be different over the years so it is really irrelevant result always the same home win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think that was more to do with his lack of performance, he seemed better on his second bike so maybe mechanical. Still wish he was still Poole though. Also Hume did well and he did a good pass in heat 8.Quite a few passes last night. Edited July 14, 2022 by foreverblue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The track wasn't fine - but fair play to the track staff for getting it into a raceable condition in the extra hot conditions. (Looking at the forecasted temperatures for next week, goodness knows what conditions will be like - at least its nice and smooth now though!) PS Could somebody please contact the handful of Glasgow fans on the first bend and ask them to return all the shale they must have been covered in and taken away with them......!!

Surprised, or perhaps not surprised, to return home and read a string of negative comments on the meeting (mostly from Glasgow fans) about how rubbish the meeting was, when in truth it was excellent entertainment. Pleased to see Danny Hume develop into the rider he is today and I believe there’s more to come. Saw it in glimpses last season and would have loved to have had him in this years lineup but it wasn’t to be. Ben Basso wasn’t roundly booed. Enough in the grandstand so he knew of the displeasure of what happened. Craig Cook was more roundly booed as is the norm when he visits. Again nothing to the reception he would have got at Eastbourne. I visit nearly all tracks and have to say away riders are much more warmly applauded when at Wimborne Road than any other track. Some tracks away riders are greeted with silence or a few boos. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beaten by the better team no complaints at all, but about as entertaining as the Berwick Poole match IMO. Maybe we're just a wee bit spoilt at ashfield now 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hans Andersen used to do this on a weekly basis. If the ref lets it go thats his problem, not Ostergaards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
