Glasgow v Poole 20/5/22

Kemp missing severely weakens us but what will be will be. What happens now doesn’t mean anything in the scheme of things. The playoffs is all that matters. -

Glasgow promotion didn’t have the common courtesy to even reply to the email. They Utterly hold fans in contempt with that attitude. Stinks the place out. -

Raining in Parkstone. Should clear soon but it matters little anyway. -

No rain in Parkstone. The main heavy rain has missed. But there is a small cell of heavy rain which might hit in the next 30 mins. Other than that nothing else. But probably the right call considering the closeness of the rain. It could have hit and no doubt would have affected attendance. -

In accurate. The rain is to the west of Poole. I am 1 and a half miles from the track and it’s bone dry outside. However, any fans coming from west of Poole might be put off attending as the rain is not far away. Will Poole get a dowsing? Not 100% sure to be honest as it’s close but running up the country west of Poole. Next hour will say whether we will get heavy rain or not. -

Can’t believe I am reading it’s off! No rain so far and it seems extremely premature to me. Yes there’s rain coming up from the south west but it could pass to the west of Poole. I hope it doesn’t but think quite a few fans will turn up at the stadium tonight wondering what the hell is going on if it’s a dry evening. Rotten luck to Turnip coming all this way at great expense. I wonder if the Poole promotion can treat him when he is next down? Skidder is it possible to bring it up with Danny so he can get a tour of the pits and watch a heat or 2 from centre green? Just a thought. -

Luckily I avoid that way going. Will change route on way home. Cheers -

Phil, isn’t it about time you realised tracks can be sorted out? You know, because you read the Poole threads, that Terry (Trackerman on here) has sorted the track out as it’s like a billiard table now with lots of new shale on the track. No need to continue to make yourself look silly by still claiming there’s an issue with the track, because that’s clearly not the case. In fact Steve Worrall last week said it rode the best it ever has in his opinion. So perhaps you could stop being negative, go into the track shop, buy a Poole jacket, stand on the first bend, and shout out , “I am not worthy, I am not worthy!”, whist whipping yourself with a branch off the birch tree up the road. Then perhaps we will forgive your lunatic posts. All the best, Steve -
Unfortunately this years gp series has only one winner. The most one sided series in the history of the sport, which is a real shame. Just makes the series boring because no one will touch or challenge Zmarzlik this season. When Trick was dominant he had serious competition and challenges every gp. This is no longer the case. It’s one way traffic. He might lose the occassional final but no one in the field is going to get close over the series which makes it a bore. Shame.

Glasgow v Poole 20/5/22

I have contacted the club and sent the following message. Perhaps if enough did so we could sway them into providing a stream. Hi there, there are plenty of Poole and neutral fans who would love to watch this meeting on a live stream. I can understand under normal circumstances not offering a live feed but this is a top clash between the best two teams in the league, in a time when travelling the length of the county is prohibitive due to fuel costs. I would be happy to pay for a stream even if it is a single camera setup to save costs. Pretty sure it would be well subscribed to. Please consider it. Kind regards Steve Shovlar -
Starting this one early. There are many Poole fans and fans of other clubs who would very much like to watch this meeting. But the cost of fuel and distance prohibits nearly every fan from coming up to Glasgow. A 918 mile round trip from Poole, taking 10-12 hours each way with breaks for food and rest. How about Glasgow putting on a live stream for this meeting? Even if it’s a single camera. I and many would be happy to pay £12 for the privilege of following the action this way. Pretty sure a few hundred would fork out to watch this battle. What about it Glasgow promotion? As for the meeting, it should be a cracker. Both teams are destined for the playoffs. Glasgow with home advantage should win but Poole are no pushovers as the Tigers know from last season. Thoughts on the chances of a stream? Zero, or can it be suggested? And the meeting itself?

Thought Drew Kemp was Pirates man of the meeting. Had two duffers but battled hard and his pass of Riss was top drawer. -

So far so good for Pirates but we led by 8 at heat ten last year and lost by 8. Expecting the fightback to start.
