Jaizer 2,864 Posted September 7, 2022 Just seen lineups. I get you want to win but FFS this is supposed to be the pinnacle of the league and the peak of the season. But rather than wait a week you'd rather run up a cricket score against what is barely an NDL side? Think I'll pass even watching it on BSN 8 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Combined GSA of 22.29 + R/R… Tantamount to standing around the edge of the playground chanting “fight, fight” as the Class bully hands out a thrashing… Any Pirate Pride in this? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Never said it was Poole's fault, pointing out that it's an uncompetitive fixture impossible to promote. This situation has nothing to do with foreign riders though, been decimated by injuries but as was suggested Poole used their alternative night of Friday a more competitive side would surely be available given only other fixture is Redcar and Edinburgh. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can’t make this sh*t up! Plymouth fans running around blaming Poole for Plymouths injury and drug crisis! Danny was sat with Garry May last Wednesday looking for possible guest options. Some were unavailable some wanted more than Plymouth were prepared to pay. Some had simply made other arrangements as their season had finished.

Poole’s track is smooth and the riders are loving it. Great praise last month from all riders at the Championship meeting and Middlos testimonial. Can’t think of a single rider who has been injured this season at Poole due to the track. On to tonight and it’s all systems go! No rain currently forecast, with the risk of showers around 9pm so the meeting will be pushed through. The early morning watering it received should make the track perfect. Looking forward to a good evenings entertainment. Come on you Pirates! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sedgy is at Birmingham, so is most of Scunthorpe. You'd need to ask Leon why he's not available. Spud probably not available due to work commitments. Wells allegedly retired. Whose left? Batch probably wanted too much money. Any of them riding abroad... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why would Poole want to ride on an off race night to appease the opposition? It’s a competition and up to the opposition to put out a competitive team. I am sure they tried to and Gary May is a top bloke and would have done his best to attract riders. Its worth saying that Plymouth could have avoided Poole had they got their track sorted and beaten Glasgow. Burning straw is not the recommended way to dry out a track. Perhaps investing, like Poole did, in a trackman, might have averted tonights clash. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
