I wouldn't say he can't be arsed, had a nasty off in his first ride, was certainly determined to win heat 13

What's frustrating on here is there's not one post giving Plymouth any credit for giving that KO Cup tie a proper go. Everyone wrote us off heading into Saturday, we got a deserved 8pt lead, could've been a couple more. Heading into last night, everyone (Including some of us) expected Poole to just power away and win it by 8+ on aggregate. A comfortable night everyone was saying...

Plymouth had 7 heat winners - I can't remember the last time we went to Wimborne Road and achieved that? Whilst yes, on the night a 14pt win is a comfortable evening, the Gladiators have made that a proper test for the Pirates. We're starting to see signs in my opinion that the Gladiators are going to ruffle a few a feathers in the league campaign this year and aren't quite the pushovers everyone assumed they would be. When you think Alfie Bowtell and Lasse Fredrikesen, both have started this season well had just 5 points between them, it could've been a lot closer than it was.

Congratulations to Poole, good meeting last night, best of luck for the rest of the KO Cup, bring on the league fixtures now!

I agree with you, it was a proper test, scoreline doesnt do the meeting justice. I am sure Barker could do a job for a premiership club at reserve, his pass in heat 6 was outstanding.Good meeting overall and it was close on aggregate until the end, Plymouth can hold their heads up high.

Ah Phil and his wind ups, BV must be boring him and the Prem. Nothing interesting will happen in that league til September now. No wonder nobody wants to move up. 💤💤

Poole look teririble atm. Cant see them getting close to the title. Got to hand it to Gavan and Ippo, spent years tormenting Poole compared to Ippo and now look at the size difference between both clubs 😂😂

 

kerr and starke need replacing asap for Poole.

Well done to Plymouth, taking us to last heat decider! fantastic meeting with some great racing, what a move by Barker in the heat with Lawson and Tobias.

Rowe the star again and needs to move to 5, Lawson again solid and Darryl what a performance, getting better each meeting and the main thing showing some fight! 

Zach poor again, yes he had a fall but running the same inside line for 4 laps against Thompson who only does that hoping things may happen, try the wide line and try and make the rider in front try and second guess you! Kerr looked down on power again and not at the races, the less said about Starke the best. Great servant to British Speedway but his days are done sadly. Yes I keep saying but we are going to be found out quickly against Redcar, Glasgow and Oxford as they are far too strong for our miss-firing squad. 

Onto the next round of the KO cup.
