Poole are a lot weaker without him and puts a lot more pressure at reserve. If you look at it objectively then it doesn't make any sense. The only issue is why he wasn't there.

Why did they announce he was ill at the meeting? I still don't get that!

I noticed at the T20 Blast cricket yesterday they were playing the Dad's Army theme tune as a few in the crowd were dressed up like them. I take it Peterborough have played the theme tune too??

Fans of the team who finishes top always say that!! lol. If the playoffs were a different competition it just wouldn't be the same.

Rib injury ruled Benjamin Basso out of cup semi-finals | Bournemouth Echo

Rib injury ruled Benjamin Basso out of cup semi-finals | Bournemouth Echo Rib injury, so where the heck did they get him being ill from??!!!

Interesting that nothing was put on Poole twitter about him not being there, until the said who the r/r was taken by in H1. I was told Basso wanted to ride but they wouldn't let him cos he banged his head. Is it 7 day suspension? i thought it was 10? But I could be getting confused with covid!

There seems to be conflicting reports. Anyone I speak to that is connected to the club says he got injured in Denmark. The updater from speedway updates said he was ill.

Pretty sure his 10 days will be up by then. Unless he has had any new symptoms and has to do another 10 days?

I did at first, then I thought it meant after H12 we were level so we gave away 8 in last 3 heats.

6 of their riders know the Poole track only Kingsley who hasn't. I would say Poole by 6-8 or 12 if one of their HL has a below par night.

Should get a good crowd!

We tend to finish our meetings after H12 for some reason, has happened most of the season esp away from home.

Well done Leicester, be interesting to see if an 8 point lead is enough. Could still go either way! Why we still seem to struggle after H12 away from home I'll never know. What happens after H12 but before H13??!

And Leicester? As long as he had his gating boots on he would have been fine.

Ah okay, thanks. A comment in updates said he was ill, which seems to carry a 10 day suspension!

Teams on updates aren't confirmed yet but they seem to have r/r for Basso...? Edit - never mind just seen he is ill. So I guess he is getting a ten day suspension.

Yes you are right! I was working Glasgow and Leicester out individually, so only one can possibly get max points, like you say! Idk, Redcar top 5 have been good at Poole in the past. Potential banana skin! Riders need to be focused.

Ha, I love that this post is right underneath Bagpuss' one! Two opposing views

I forgot about the stream!! Was hoping for a draw, helps us out a bit

Think so. My maths isn't brilliant but if Leicester and Glasgow both get max league points from their remaining meetings and we lose to Redcar then we should be top 2 on points difference. But need to double check the table.

IDK but Thurs night is a no-go for a fair few Poole fans.

With Swindon and one other team like Kent? If they can make Mon work. Seems doable.

Yes but only recently had it as a protected race night. Unless they have given that up now? From what I gather Poole don't get the numbers on Thurs/Mon like they do on a Weds. Not sure what other clubs in prem are like? Fine for BV, Ipswich and Wolves I guess as can stick to their favoured race night.

Double points is even worse tbh
