When you look at the teams it seems obvious that there won't be much between them overall, Danny King had a poor night last time Leicester were at Wimborne Road too, obvious weak links are Ablitt and Joe Thompson so Zach will have to be somewhere near his best, I believe the turning point at Leicester was Kemp and Zach getting a 5-1 in heat 14. This meeting could go either way but I think and hope we can edge it overall.

He laughs it off mostly as we all do when asked, most fans don't hate only the select few on here.

Well no one likes to be hated or even disliked but we can't help how people feel about us, the damage was done years ago, nothing to do with Danny but he has had to carry the burden.

Hume is at reserve now so they have to use a guest for him if he isn't fit.

Ablitt has struggled all season but we all knew he would, maybe Connor Coles would have been a better option but Nathan does pick up the odd point and has improved. Kemp is frustrating as he clearly has ability as shown in heat 14 last night and in heat 14 at Leicester but why he has to wait until heat 14 for a decent ride I don't know. Zach got a reasonable score at Leicester, a track he hasn't scored well at in the past,he has been better lately in general so don't see him as a worry.

Correct, no not really only kidding! I fully accept the referees decision.

No i said proof not the aging eyes of a referee!

Don't think you can unless the rules have changed, you will have to have a guest for Hume if he isn't fit and r/r for Ulrich.

Do you think anyone would notice if we got Bewley for Kemp!!

I hope not!

Hume has had a very good season and is obviously a big miss, i met his dad at Leicester last season and was very impressed with his attitude and getting over his struggles, i think he is getting the rewards now and it is a shame he is injured. He is a very nice guy and deserves success. I feel whoever they get a guest replacement will not be as good but Ruml seems to be the best choice.

I agree with your comment on Ruml, we all like a trier. Tom would be the one above Ulrich's average so i don't think you would suffer much with r/r although i wouldn't think he counts the Poole track as one of his favourites!

Ulrich would be too much of a risk in my opinion, historically he takes a few meetings to get back to form. Hume wouldn't need that and could probably find his form quicker but still a risk . Etheridge has improved lately so maybe a possible guest although i appreciate he hasn't done well in the past at Glasgow. Starke is a bit off form lately so probably not him.

Certainly entertaining.I thought earlier in the season we could have got him for Ablitt and maybe dropped Kemp but Ablitt hasn't done that badly and Kemp seems to come good when least expected and it definitely makes a refreshing change to keep the same team all season.

Yes far too expensive. Both Glasgow and ourselves have come in to form, it will depend on riders like Kemp and our Cooks for us and might depend on the guest Glasgow get, it is a shame that they don't have a full team but that is how it goes sometimes. Can't see Ulrich coming back, if Hume came back that would be a plus for them.

Why should Steve be banned? Who can't ban someone just because he sometimes looks at things negatively.

Why would we do that, ridiculous.

Only need 26 now!

Oh dear just got even easier, Hans couldn't be bothered to turn up.

Have you proof?

All the Glasgow heat leaders have had good nights at Poole, over both meetings i would say they probably just about have the edge but as you say it could go either way, what you can say is they are all going well at the moment. I think it will be two very close meetings and it could come down to the wire.

I fully expect them to win but not by much, Pirates to be in self preservation mode, If Hans wants to do a dirty Nicki, move out of his way!

Teams should take more care of their riders!

Part of me wants us to win just to annoy him!

No one would expect them to make it easy but it would need it to be a very strange meeting for Poole not to get 31 points. Most neutral observers may want a miracle, I hope it is a good meeting with lots of passing and I hope Plymouth make a fight of it although realistically it should be a walk in the park for the Pirates.
