I am not criticising the track. It’s the same for both teams. But the blue groove was there from heat 4 and Oxford riders are rockets from the gate. That’s it. Lee Kirby is showing the blue groove and said it’s very tricky but working for the home riders.

Never mind, that’s the way it goes sometimes.

Welcome to the world of every other club whose had the displeasure of visiting Wimborne Road in recent seasons.

No excuse though as it’s the same for both teams. Bowes one more ride and will be replaced.

That wouldn't be the same Mr Bowes who was gonna be a world beater for the pilots 🤔. As I've said before your welcome to him and he is showing his true worth 😀

I worked down there a couple of years ago so thought I’d go along to watch the Poole Glasgow cup tie. The one where Brennan had that bad crash while riding for Glasgow. Poole won 60 odd 20 odd . Processional heat after heat. Even bomber struggled to pass. Track was definitely crap that night but I stand corrected if it’s not usually like that.

Just shows how bad the pilots are if dayle woods is on a paid max 😜🤣🤣

Or shows how the track is. Gate and go. Richings just won heat 14. Masters couldn’t get past Lawson heat 13. 
 

Dust and blue groove.

I suspect some of the Poole fans won't be posting on here tonight as they tend to go to bed early as explained on the Scunthorpe  v Poole thread. Nothing to do with being soundly beaten of course! 

No I am here. Disappointing performance but could have been worse. Won’t be worse than 16.

Well we were never at the races all night but somehow we go to Wimborne Road only 12 down. 
 

Clearly our worst performance in a long, long time but we battled second half to give ourselves a chance. The track was appalling. Truly dreadful and passing was no existent. Dust and blue groove which Lee Kirby said was there and no rider would go off it.

Every chance of going through when it looked at one stage we would get a heavy thumping.

The lack of self-awareness from you is quite remarkable.

While you criticise Wimborne Road, the track is never, ever like that.

That's true because it was basically a road tonight. More dirt on my shoe. 

We should have been paid to watch that.

Poole fortunate that Riss is unavailable.

Yes indeed, pirates dodged a bullet there. Riss would have scored at least eight against a very lack lustered Pirates imo.

Well that was unexpected!!

Poole fans on here are just hilarious having the actual audacity to have a go at another track when the whole speedway fanbase knows Poole is by some way the worst track in the league 

Shovlar saying sedgeman is a good replacement for Riss either shows he is thick or simply trolling 

Let’s be fair if Oxford where at full strength they could have been close to 60
