It adds to the great atmosphere at Poole meetings. Each visiting team has its own music played on the parade as each team enters the centregreen. Sweet Caroline is also belted out before heat 15!

Important to say the riders choose their winning song! The less said about Sweet Caroline the better, at least they didn't do it last week! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lbw 869 Posted August 16, 2023 In London Victoria enroute to the Pirate Ship time for a Costa flat white, and I don't need to even ask for it now as they recognise my Poole colours All looking good for a great night of racing on the South Coast where it's sun sea & speedway And c'mon Joe Thompson, like to see you score 4 or 5 points for the Pirates. All the Pirates are so good at passing not their fault the opponents aren't! C'mon the Boyzzzzz 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thought we'd missed our chance to welcome him after the rain off where he was due to appear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lbw 869 Posted August 16, 2023 (edited) I've brought the garden gate with me just to see if anyone can make a better gate than me! I'd better watch out for Lawson & Worrall coz I understand that they are good with a saw! Edited August 16, 2023 by lbw Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
