This coming Wednesday sees the Pirates take on the Tigers for league points. The Pirates will be without the unlucky Fraser Bowes after his nasty spill last week resulting in a punctured lung and rib and back bruising. Hopefully Cooper will be available to boost the reserves Glasgow of course have Chris Bomber Harris in thier ranks, who always rides Wimborne Road well,add on Kyle Howarth and Leon Flint and they have a solid top three. Will be interesting to see how well Kevin Juhl Pedersen and Mario Hausl go on thier first visit. Sam Hagon is up and down with his scoring and not sure if Freddy Hodder is fit. Sticking my neck out, I think the Pirates should win this not sure by how many though. Thoughts?

After an incident packed first leg at Cowley last week,the Pirates host the second leg on Wednesday against the Cheetahs with a 10 point lead. Not sure if Eric Riss is yet fit to return to the Cheetahs side and I believe that Luke Killeen is absent due to concussion. Will the Cheetahs come out all guns blazing or will Poole send them packing. Thoughts.

Delusional.

Really. Haha.

The Pirates take on the Bears this coming Wednesday in thier opening league fixture after the Bsn series. This will be a good test for the Pirates and in particular with the form of reserve Jody Scott at the moment. I feel that Poole have a stronger top 5 so the reserves will be key. Looking forward to seeing who comes out on top between Cooper,Will ,Scott and Mulford. Thoughts?

The Pirates return to action at home this coming Wednesday to take on the Oxford Cheetahs after a 3 week break from the last home meeting. The Cheetahs ran out winners by 51-39 at home to give them a 12 point advantage with Dayle Wood scoring 10+2 from reserve. The Pirates need to get off to a good start, with the Cheetahs having Sam Mastets and ex Pirate Anders Rowe in opposition it could be a tough night. Thoughts?

Great result for Saints and the mighty Pirates.

So what, he's coming back from injury and as far as I'm concerned he will only get better.

Sorry Blobby, but check the updates heat 10 Frazer beat Danny King and gained a 5-1

What is your problem. I guess that you haven't got a team to support anymore so therefore you feel the need to take a swipe at Poole.

Hi Neil. Guess what I won't be cheering for Comets either. 😀

Massive well done to the Bears. They were clearly up for the challenge last night. Congratulations to Gabin Parr and the Redcar Bears. The Pirates were not at their best last night and maybe the playoff final was where we reached our peak. All the best to all Speedway fans of all clubs over the winter break. Looking forward to the return of Speedway in 2026.

What a complete tool.

Gavan, give it a rest mate. Your constant diatribe anti Poole is geting tedious.

Come on on the Pirates.

Hi Gavin, give it a rest mate. Your obsession with Poole is not only weird but the fact you think thst they always gain advantages from other teams. I don't understand why.

It's the shape and also the material doesn't appear to have enough clay mixed in.

Comments like yours sums up how pathetic some people are. Just can't stop sticking the knife into Poole. Yes we were lucky to get another chance in heat 15 and yes Oxford may well feel aggrieved. But to say the points should be given to Oxford or the meeting rerun. Ffs. God help us.

On Wednesday the Pirates take on the Cheetahs with league points up for grabs. Early on in the season they gave us a lesso in gating and walked away with victory in the Bsn fixture. Can the Pirates gain revenge. Mitch McDiarmid was impressive last time around although he was at reserve and you know what Sam Masters is capable of around Wimborne Road. Not sure if Jonas Knudsen has ridden at Poole before it may have been with Berwick. Luke Killeen isn't quite as dominant as he was last season and the rest of the team are hit and miss. Sticking my neck out, I feel we can win this but need a better performance all round after last week against the Comets. Thoughts?

This coming Wednesday the Pirates take on the Comets for league points in the championship. After a disappointing display at the Gt Tyres arena and suffering a 12 point defeat they will be looking for revenge. Will the Comets be able to hold on to their advantage or will the Pirates hit them hard from the off. I expect Poole to come out all guns blazing and be looking to stop Workington from getting any further ahead. Thoughts?

Unfortunately, I will be missing tonight's meeting due to beimg away on holiday. Pirates need to be on it tonight from heat 1. The Monarchs have got a decent side and although Viktor Pallovaara hasn't ridden Wimborne Road before he can gate. Justin Sedgman and Kye Thomson have had good meetings at Poole add in Michael Pam Toft then it could be a difficult night for the Pirates. The reseves are where meetings can be won or lost and the Monarchs have Jonatan Grahn who has been scoring well and young ausie Jordy Loftus . They haven't ridden Wimborne Road before so will be interesting to see how they perform. This puts some pressure on Paul Starke and Will Cairns to bounce back from a poor night at Workington. Thoughts?

Well done to the Comets,thoroughly deserved. A bad day at the office for the Pirates but that's speedway. Expect a backlash when the Comets arrive at Wimborne Road in two weeks.

Looking forward to tomorrow evenings meeting and see how Will Cairns does on his debut,and Rocket Man's clashes with Bomber and Dan Thompson. Sticking my neck out Pirates to take this and pick up the points.
