Prob just asking for directions!! Hehehe. I once got asked for directions to Swindon! lol

Billy Hamill says in his autobiography that he used to get lost finding the Poole stadium!! Hahaha.

Yep, I live in Ringwood and it is definitely Hampshire!! At least 15 miles from Poole. ( Bournemouth to Ringwood is 10 miles - so prob 15-17 miles away.)

You would get more families attending if it was at the weekend. What sort of attractions are you talking about? Plus you would get the tourists that are down for the weekend. I think it would work.

I am not sure about that. Just cos you've had the vaccine doesn't mean you can't pass it on to someone else. They are still not sure how transmissable it is. Sometimes Steve, you can't do whatever you want and you just have to suck it up for a month or so. Edit - Or you ask around and see if there is a family of 5 (from one household) you can go with!

I can understand riders not doing a lap of honour after a 3-3 (as no real heat adv) but if they didn't do it after getting a 5-1 then fans have a right to be annoyed!

Not exactly what you would call reliable though are they? Actually if there was a sport for whoever complained the most at least one of them would be a world champ! Haha.

Blimey!! That's gone quick. What a team that was. I think Ipswich won at Poole that year by like 30 points! Gollob came in on 6 didn't he?

But if your no1 managed to just get 2nd in H1 you still would have won! No number one should be getting last place in H1!!

Not quite the same when they are forced to do it! They should want to do it. Bit like telling your child to say hello to someone when they don't want to.

That's fine! My thinking very rarely seems to be correct lol

Oh come on, you take risks with this sort of thing when travelling to away meetings with rain offs etc.

Yep, as soon as I read they were involved in the talks I thought they hit a dead end with GI.

An educated guess would tell you it wasn't his decision, prob a compromise.

Oh yeah! Great personality and if you go and talk to him after the meeting he will speak to you like your his best friend! Craig Watson was like that too

Won't be a 'P' team, both are already top heavy! Edit - Scunthorpe, Newcastle and poss Kent is quite low. If he is already up north with travelling to Sheffield then Newcastle or Scunthorpe would make sense.

Trying to remember what Brady did when he was at Poole... I think if he just won the race then back to the pits but if he was a part of a 5-1 then he would do a lap of honour after. I guess riders have in their head what they would do even before the meeting starts. Say what you like about Ward and Chris Holder but they would always go wheelie mad after a race (even if it was to wind up the oppo fans)! Hans Andersen is another one who is good at it. Also depends if they are good at wheelie's too!

Most over 50's have had the vaccine now and I think the uptake in the SW is 91/92% going by the news last night so as long as people in that age group can show they have had the vaccine can they not stand together??

Are they not just catering for families? And how many times do people say that kids are the future and looks like they are going for family groups..

Good that they are going to try and live stream it though. I think that will be my option.

It was one person!

Because it is being used as a testing centre or vaccinations?? I would have thought the medical profession deem that as more important than a sports meeting...?

Ha! I was trying to be a bit more polite than that! lol

That's an understatement! Makes Eastbourne look huge I have been to Plymouth once when Bournemouth Buccs were there so quite a while ago prob 2009/2010 ish. Don't you have to park somewhere and then walk down a country path to get to the stadium? But might have changed in the last 11/12 years! I hope they have upgraded on the portoloo's now though.

Can you expand on that? Is it the stadium owners do you mean?
