We have BSN at start so we have an early tournament to kick it all off. We had play offs in November last season and that was a damp squib because Leicester could not run it at their track. Weather plays a part throughout the season but there has to be a better way, maybe run all the cup matches at the end. This year it was a bit silly with the 3 team league to see who made the final, just have top four in semi finals .

We will know tomorrow if he is correct. I am hopeful of a good meeting and close racing, may not be our night in the end but we are not giving up just yet. Alot of people are saying it will be easy even though we are 14 points down so that is reverse psychology too as like you they are the ones who want us to lose.

I would agree we choked at Glasgow we were awful in the first part of the meeting, Joe was unlucky but Ben Cook broke the tapes and then stupidly didn't make time allowance and Newman broke down on start line, a catalogue of errors then Worrall had to use second bike. If you met Shovvy you realise he is not a numpty, far from it in fact but he is a massive pessimist. If we manage it tomorrow it will be a fantastic performance, we have given ourselves a mountain to climb.

I don't expect to pull it back but I just hope we can and I hope rain doesn't ruin it. I am no pessimist like Shovvy, I consider myself an optimist so I am very hopeful. Tarasenko has never been to Poole so I would not expect much in his first two rides but he is eligible for r/r so could be dangerous later on. Brennan is usually poor at Poole but last time he got 9 so that was a big improvement but he had an up and down night too at Glasgow so as with last night the first few heats will determine to final outcome. If we get off to a slow start we are toast.

Yes they did and it has given them a massive chance, most Poole fans would have been pleased with 8-10 but 14 is a big lead when you have riders like Basso, Harris and Tarasenko plus Brennan who scored 9 last time. Apparently the Ipswich troll tells us that if we don't beat Glasgow we will have choked, the tripe that comes from him is unbelievable. It is not impossible but requires everyone firing which clearly wasn't the case last night.
