I'm sure most Poole fans tipped Poole this season.I did in my Your 2017 prem winners thread".KK always gives more in a Poole race jacket".Not saying you won't.But it's no given.
I don't know if there is a reason why he missed the hearing,but he ain't doing himself any favours the way he talks about the sport.The hole he started digging looks like its getting deeper.
The power used to be a lot less.According to a riders Dad I spoke to a few days ago,it was the silencers that made a big difference.No probs for the riders hugging the white line,but not good if in the dirt.
Don't ask who.
I enjoyed watching that on TV.Second half livened up.Shame about the rain.Credit to the Lions for the fight back.
But the attendance looked like a few hundred.Maybe some out of camera.
