POOLE V SCUNTHORPE, WEDS 14TH MAY 2025.


Recommended Posts

Zach Cook is at 5 for Poole.

Poole will win this. Only place Scunthorpe will be stronger is reserve. For Scunthorpe to start winning away, Harrison has to up his game away and Lambert and Allen (Barring his display at Redcar) need to up their game completely.

Who writes the articles on Scunthorpe's website or posts them without proof reading first?

I bet Poole wish they had him at number 5 😂

Because in the Scunthorpe Press Release there is no No2 rider. You have Ben Cook, Scunny have no No2 🙈

Aah 2 wrongs etcetera!

NB bright and sunny  at the stadium currently 24°. Over 60,000 litres of water on the track so far.

Nothing against Darryl Ritchings, but I'm kinda hoping he scores 0 points. Maybe help remind Poole fans it's not easy for a 2.00 reserve to score points against strong opposition reserves & they'll give Marson a bit of a break from criticism.

Marson wanted to find a full-time CL place as well as NDL outings to make it worth coming over from Aussie.

He accepted that he was only a placeholder in the Poole team until the end of June, which made it worth his while.

But to kick his out in early May to take advantage of another placeholder until June, seems pretty low.

Scunthorpe will run riot at reserve but i don’t expect any Poole rider to score less then his opposite number … 55-35

I think this prediction couldn’t have been anymore accurate

Scunthorpe reserves easily out scoring Pooles reserves

All Pooles top 5 outscoring the opposing number 

55-35 boom lol

No, it isn't easy but Ritchings was a lot more on the pace than Marson was, so correct decision imo.

Poole always make changes if they think someone better available. Perry got sacked last season and at the time just started getting 2-3 points a meeting (that one was harsher - but also was correct in the end), so imo Marson was never going to last until June.
