lbw 869 Posted August 30, 2023 (edited) In London Victoria in plenty of time to av me Costa flat white Looking forward to seeing Ben Cook & Joe Thompson ride, not forgetting the rest of the Pirates. Watched both the Thompson's progress at Leicester & I never thought I'd see one of them in Pirates colours. Joe is certainly at the right club for support after being messed about this season. It's great to hear all the fans getting behind him like they did with Nathan Ablitt. Great to see Joe getting the results on track. Josh Pickering I'm sure will be amongst the points for the Brummies but the rest I dunno. Both Sedgy & Batch are disappointing when they should be better, I think Nielsen & Fergel Starkey pose a bigger threat. Pirates to be clear in the distance with my predict-ometer reading 57-33. C'mon the Boyzzzzz Edited August 30, 2023 by lbw 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Robinh88 571 Posted August 30, 2023 Good to see Lawson and Worrall going missing in Heat 13. I would bet this will not happen in the playoffs but I maybe totally wrong. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
uk_martin 1,606 Posted August 30, 2023 I bet Joe Thompson is feeling smug right now. Scoring alone as many as 4 Birmingham riders put together, and even matching Josh Pickwickering's score. Oh, and which club didn't need his services any longer, earlier in the year? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"Mourinho" has made several very questionable decisions for both clubs this season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
