Shaleshifter 177 Posted July 23, 2023 The Pirates welcome the Brummies to Wimborne Road on Wednesday looking to carry on from last weeks win at Perry Barr. Not sure who is guesting now for Nick Morris due to Rory Schlein being out injured. Would expect a comfortable home win but Berwick put up a fight last week especially early on in the meeting.

lisa-colette 6,035 Posted July 23, 2023 (edited) Well Brum have good choice of guest as no other Champ meeting. Edit - surely King best option? Basso, Harris, Dougy, Scott, Masters and Pickering all too high. Craig Cook just in but Poole too far for him I think.

Fozzie4388 679 Posted July 23, 2023 (edited) Wonder if Dickson will go with a dodgy 1 to 7 like he did last year with Leicester in the Playoff final at Poole when he put Dan Thompson at number 5 to ride with the reserves and went for a strong partnership elsewhere in the team with Worrall and Nicholls at 3 and 4. Will he move Sedgmen from the Number 5 slot? Edited July 23, 2023 by Fozzie4388 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will he move Sedgmen from the Number 5 slot? Judging by his comments on BSN commentary on Friday, Dickson would simply do anything and everything to get one over on Poole! He was still bemoaning Poole winning the play-offs last year at Kings Lynn, despite it was Leicester's inability to get their own track right for the 2nd leg!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lbw 869 Posted July 23, 2023 (edited) Comfy home win for we Pirates but hope to see entertaining racing as is the norm at WINborne road. I'm going for a 57-33 @Steve Shovlar so keep a note. I'm still on a high after celebrating up in Glasgow on Friday.

kitten2502 262 Posted July 23, 2023 We're more than likely looking at another tonking..... Regarding guest choices - no idea but wouldn't be on the phone to Danny King after last weeks showing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
