For anyone wondering why Zack cook struggled in heat 8 his chain fell off. Just heard in the pits  He really tried hard as well to find the right line.

Forgot this was on. Looks like we are having a bit of a kicking. Oh well can’t win them all. Looking like a 52-38 type meeting unless we can rally. We have thrown some silly points away.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why Leicester would never pick us in the playoff semi finals.

Great rally and we should have won it. Heat 13 and on a 5-1 when Morris fell. Howarth gated in rerun. Zack falling on a 4-2 and in heat two Ablitt falling when leading. Silly errors which cost us the win but Leicester now have to come to Poole and win or draw.

You know Leicester have won at Poole this year right? Assuming Nick Morris okay after his fall? Just wondered as wasn't out for H15.

A decent meeting as a neutral, but not enough of a lead for the Lions. On a side note, some of the behaviour of the Poole fans were disgraceful. One in particular shouted, with children around “Get your bike off the track you f*cking idiot” whilst Nick Morris lay on the track. On three occasions, they also went into the safety zone, including once when the bikes were on track. 
 

Apart from that, there was some good racing. Roll on Edinburgh  next week in the play offs.

Pirates are riding far better than when Leicester came to us and won. And it looks after tonight we are heading to Glasgow in the playoffs, as I said a few weeks ago.
 

Would Leicester risk chosing us in the semi finals?
 

Hope Nick Morris is OK.

Stewart Dickson confirmed tonight that Leicester will be riding against Edinburgh next week.

Yeah, that's why we were talking about it as Poole said on their twitter during the meeting.

Were you there to see the crash? It was hardly a bum slide to force a re run.
