Shaleshifter Posted 23 hours ago Report Share Posted 23 hours ago After a weeks break the Pirates return to action taking on the Berwick Bandits in the knockout Cup semi final. The Pirates will be without thier star no1 Richard Lawson who has a Danish league fixture as this meeting was not originally in the calendar. Chris Bomber Harris steps in for Richard. Berwick draft in another Glasgow tiger and ex bandit Leon Fint to cover for Peter Kildemand on Danish league duty. With the weather expected to be in the high 30's all day track prep will be extremely challenging. The Bandits have been on good form especially at home so this will be a tough 2 legged encounter.

Thoughts? Fraser Bowes is back at 2 partnering Bomber. I hope he is fit/rested enough to turn the bike effectively. I reckon it'll be close over 2 legs, especially with Glasgow away in between .

Thoughts? Challenging when it’s hot and wet. What a farce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Shovlar Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Forecast is giving 37C on Wednesday. Seriously too hot. And it’s only June. Track staff will have a thankless tast getting water down in the track. Be drying out ten minutes after they flood it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavan Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Poole have definitely got a better guest for Lawson than Berwick have for Kildemand Can see Poole winning this by 20 Etheridge and Jenkins got 1 between them last time at Poole and Palovaara got 8 from 6 Should be a walk in the park Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
