BIRMINGHAM: Michael Jepsen Jensen R/R, Paco Castagna, Tobiasz Musielak, Keynan Rew, Matej Zagar, Jonas Jeppesen, Sam Hagon. SHEFFIELD: Jack Holder, Zach Cook, Josh Pickering, Lewi Kerr, Chris Holder, Justin Sedgmen, Leon Flint.  

As already mentioned elsewhere, Pirates have a couple of potential fitness issues, with the two strongest riders Lawson & Rowe. Richard - wrist, Anders - groin.  If the team are all fit it should be a win sufficient to add the bonus point. 

Thats obvious regarding the money.

Id imagine the money is different . The cynic in me thinks it might end up the same as Tobi did. I know Tobi always said he wanted to come back, and that wasn't the case, but if Bens Polish team flex their muscles, it might end going the same way.

This coming Wednesday the Pirates take on the Bandits looking to gain revenge after the defeat at Shielfield Park back in May. With ex Pirates Danyon Hume and Sam Hagon returning to Wimborne Road along with the likes of Craig Cook and Peter Kildermand should be a good meeting. Sam Hagon was a match winner for the Bandits when the teams met at Shielfield ,will he be on form or will Poole keep him in  check. I feel that we should be more than capable of getting a result but will need to be carrying on the form from last weeks win over the  Bears.
