Poole v Glasgow, 15/10/25, Glasgow v Poole, 17/10/25 Championship Final

[Steve Shovlar]

The top two battle it out for the championship. Glasgow finished top by a point and are the favourites coming into this with basically five heatleaders in their team. But Poole are showing good form overall. Weather looks set fair. Nice cool evenings. 
 

Poole: Lawson, Thomsen, Kerr, Cook, Rowe, Stark, Cairns.

Glasgow: Harris, Nagel, Thompson, Flint, Howarth, Perry, Hodder.

Glasgow 🐯 are NOT favourites if anything it's evens. But as usual we PIRATES ☠️ will prove the doubters wrong. U know who you are.

C'mon the Boyzzz ☠️

Looking forward to attending both meetings in wot will be an epic finale for the Championship League Title 🏆

There's no doubt that Glasgow 🐯 boast a strong top 5 but they av a weak tail which will be exploited by we PIRATES ☠️. After seeing the PIRATES strength and determination at the business end of the season every rider 1-7 are very capable of beating anyone.

C'mon the Boyzzz ☠️ 💪

We should beat Glasgow at home (unless Nagel decides to get double figures!) But we really need at least 12 to take there to have a decent chance imo especially with Max having a good meeting there in the SF. If he does that again will give Glasgow the depth they need.

[ASpeedwayfan]

Pooles reserves are going to need to be the match winners, they have to have the beating of Glasgows 6/7 in almost all their races, home and away. 
 

Hopefully Anders will be well enough to ride to his 100% as there can’t be any passengers.

Has Nagel ridden at Poole before? 
Pooles only real hope is that he and their reserves don’t get double figures between them. 
Glasgow will turn up with fire in their belly’s after their rather bitter previous visit to Poole. They’ll want revenge.

No I am fairly sure Nagel has never been to Poole, he will need to bring his gating gloves but I am certain he will score many points, hopefully not too many. Our reserves should not drop any points against Perry or Hodder but Perry has been better lately so if he gates he may get some points.

Nagel will be the key to Glasgows chances .IMO

Agreed. In the same way Tarasenko helped bolster the Tigers in 2023.

The 64,000 dollar question is will Shovvy have recovered from the Corona and be in attendance!  If so make sure he is carrying a negative test on him and wearing a mask!

Well two weeks ago I wouldn't hesitate in making Glasgow favourites, but the recent run of Redcar matches has been good for Poole building confidence and giving them momentum. Sure Nagel and Thompson etc are a potential threat, but their performances also depend on how Poole let them ride. Should be a great contest, hoping for a good result at Wimborne Road, a plus 12 lead would be a real result for Poole. 

[szkocjasid]

Could go either way, wouldn't call either team favourites

[Gavan]

Poole fans talk absolute tripe 

It’s not about who finished where in the league it’s how teams get on against each other 

Ipswich struggle against Kings Lynn at Foxhall because their riders go well there and in comparison Belle Vue who are a better side than Lynn according to league position can’t ride Foxhall for toffee and get thumped there 

Poole have won at Glasgow and only lost by 8 as well this season 

At Poole , Glasgow have lost by 14 and 24 

Poole should win comfortably over 2 legs final league position has nothing to do with it , its about how certain teams go at certain tracks 

[Bagpuss]

Glasgow's recent inaction and the weakness of their reserves would comcern me a bit as a Tigers fan, Poole have a fair bit of momentum at the moment and know how to get the job done at the business end of the season. 

Glasgow will need to keep things tight in the away leg to have any chance.

They are riding tomorrow though so that should get the cobwebs out ready for Wednesday and Flint guested for Redcar last night, Dan T also rode in the play offs for Ipswich. Cant see Glasgow reserves giving us much trouble but their top 5 are very strong, Nagel is their new tarasenko,we need 10-12 point lead in my opinion.

They are riding better now and Nagel has never faced us, he is a very good rider, with him they are a different team.
