[Bleeds Pirate Blue]

Riders get criticized in Poole threads for not coming round and acknowledging the fans. Now here we are having a pop at Cairns for a celebrating a heat advantage with Tobias. Can't win.

Yep, a nice over take from cairns on an experienced rider and he rightly gives the big crowd something to cheer, and there’s someone on here calling a 16yr old kid a clown. Comical

I think it’s great that Lewy is spending his hard earned money to watch Poole. Thanks. He obviously loves us really.

Socials and local media really ramping up this evening's meeting!! Also weather is overcast with a slight risk of a light shower this afternoon which should help track prep no end.

I will be impressed if the social and local media can ramp up the result of the meeting what a boring non event that was ..

Well hoo bl.. dy ray, just as SteveArena said it would be "easy". 

Move of the night has to be Kerr's block pass on Killeen,. Killeen taking the wide line out of turn 2, but Kerr making an early apex taking the shortest distance to the exit, plonks his bike in front of the faster moving Killeen, he's just found the drive but has to roll off with Kerr sat in front. Text book. 

You should have been there Knee-La, it was great.

Not really, if poor worky can beat Oxford, it's about time pilots got a good result over a team , but apart from masters not many on the Oxford team can gate and go, looks like track bald to suit pilots 😜

[scaramanga]

not a good meeting for race fans 

im sure poole loved it but id rather have racing

Just having a latte waiting for @lbw to join with his flat white 😁

Another banana skin meeting for the pilots, last few meetings you all thought an easy win was on the cards, turned out you struggled to win, hopefully this one is a similar struggle 😁 

It was a struggle to win by 26pts 

[SteveLyric2]

58-32 'nuff said!😇

Although next week at Sandy Lane,Pirates final opportunity to lower their averages for 2026 will see a very different result imo!!

I didn't think KO matches counted towards averages?

They don’t, but it’s Poole’s final league match next week. Not sure we have a date yet for the 2nd leg of the BSN semi final @ Oxford.
