She is from Renfrew! Which admittedly is close to Glasgow but isn’t Glasgow!!

A mere 9 miles away :D So does it count as the outskirts of Glasgow then? I must admit I am enjoying my geography lesson. :t:

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.

Best chance we'll ever have on winning at Poole . Watched them at Armadale on Friday and wasn't impressed . 

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.

Ready, Steady, Cook :D

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! :lol:

Actually didn't realise that Paul Stead had ridden for Poole '79,  one of Long Eaton Invaders' '84 National League title winning heroes :party:

Yep a pointless post? :rofl:

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.

Yes possibly but he left it too late to come good in last years final and is unreliable at Poole usually. 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!!

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

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!

But most of the 11 he got in the play off meeting was when it was all over.
