LisaColette Posted May 25 Report Share Posted May 25 Will Howarth be riding? Didn't he pull out of some guest bookings today? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does the fact he was absence as a guest make any difference? A non speedway absence might mean a 7 day suspension. In which case a replacement at 75% of Kyle’s GSA of 8.28 could apply. Just my thoughts and happy to be corrected. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavan Posted May 25 Report Share Posted May 25 Poole could easily get close to 60 in this one Harris last 3 meetings at Poole 16 rides and 6 wins and is out of form Howarth last 3 has had 14 rides and 1 win Flint 8 rides and 1 win Add in having Jack Smith and Luke Harrison and Glasgow are very weak Rushen and Cairns can easily hit double figures Any Poole fan expecting this to be close is deluded 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they are owed a big performance but to be honest I'm not expecting it to be on Wednesday. In fact I'm not really expecting them to be in the play-offs this year, Edinburgh and Plymouth look more dangerous to me, the question is who will be the fourth team? Verdict for Wednesday is Poole 50+. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nickinho Posted May 26 Report Share Posted May 26 With the latest averages will Howarth be at number 1 and Hagon at number 2 tomorrow? Not sure what's happening with Chris Harris at the moment, he is still an excellent rider but maybe age is starting to creep up on him a lot faster than it did with say Scott Nicholls. Maybe at the age Chris is at fitness comes into it a lot, idk. Hopefully, it's just a blip though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New averages don't take effect until June 1 so no change to our riding order. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well for me getting old doesn't stop me doing the things I've always done, but.......doing it two days on the trot may well be an issue. Maybe Harris should focus on fewer events, and so get better results? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Shovlar Posted May 26 Report Share Posted May 26 Expecting a battling and thrilling meeting on a superbly prepared water saturated track against our rivals for the title. Glasgow come as one of the favourites for winning the championship and are stacked with quality riders. Harris loves the wide open spaces of Wimborne Road and as always is a real threat. Howarth is always very quick. Hagon is a top youngster and had a year at Poole. Smith has done many laps around here and Harrison is a battler. Flint can score a few. And then I woke up. 57-33. Dust from heat 3 regardless of track prep. 35c tomorrow. Â 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddy The Rebel Posted May 26 Report Share Posted May 26 Think Poole will win this around 55-35 tomorrow,RR for Bowes makes us a lot stronger as long as the reserves score how they have been then can we this fixture not posing much threat.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if Kyle was suspended, which I'm almost certain he won't be, Glasgow wouldn't have to use a 75% guest.

Gazc Posted May 26 Report Share Posted May 26 I fully expect us to be on the end of a pumping we look poor this season whilst Poole look very strong high 50s low 60s for the pirates unfortunately. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody really gains from a one-sided competition. Glasgow (the fans) deserve better obviously it would be great if Cami were to go (he does make some bloody odd calls) but maybe they missed a trick when let Dan Thompson go, should it really have been Harris? I know Harris brings plenty as a Captain beyond points, and can on the odd occasion still match most top championship riders, but Dan is on the up and he now makes Edinburgh a more formidable team too. Just a thought?!*# 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Shovlar Posted May 27 Report Share Posted May 27 So hot here. Sizzling heat at 10 am. Bit more of an easterly breeze this morning but that won’t make any difference. Trying to get any moisture into the track is going to be a thankless task. Horrendous conditions for racing but they just have to get on with it. Big crowd expected as it’s half term. The bar staff will be kept very busy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InTheDeepStuff Posted May 27 Report Share Posted May 27 Poole to get low to mid 50’s tonight,  Bomber off form in Championship, not a happy hunting ground for Howarth who is the in form rider for Glasgow, can’t see Flint getting much picking from the Poole heatleaders. I’d expect Lawson to go undefeated by a Glasgow rider, Poole reserves to have a field day against the Glasgow reserves and middle order, with Kerr and Cook to have a solid double digit night also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InTheDeepStuff Posted May 27 Report Share Posted May 27 (edited) Long mid week journey though for any of the Glasgow fans making the away trip, at least the weather is good! Edited May 27 by InTheDeepStuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
