  1. The successful teams are often kept hanging around by opponents who can't/don't complete their fixtures on time or won't agree fixture dates due to rider availability.
  2. You can still achieve that in the seated areas as long as you dont leave it til 7.30 to get in! There's not really any decent positions around the stadium bends to sit without the risk of people standing and blocking your view. There is the area at track level in front of the grandstand on the home straight - several wheelchair users are positioned there amongst those standing. Not sure what the attendance will be like although Poole haven't had a home meeting for a fortnight and it is the school hols and the first opportunity to welcome back the BSN Series Champions!! Enjoy.
  3. Don't think you,ll need a camping chair as there is plenty of unreserved seating either in the main grandstand or behind glass in the backstraight stand built for the now non-existent greyhounds.
  4. Cant they double up the Sheffield v Wolves meeting on 24th August?
  5. pits access is from 6.30pm til 7pm prompt. Gates open at 6.30 so I suggest you get near the front of the queue
  6. There are no meetings on anyway - as should be the case in WC week!
  7. I don't get the negativity about Danny King. He's in the 1-7 as 3rd heat leader and pretty much scoring his average or above regularly? So many posters complain about teams changing every year with no continuity, but here you have a local, established rider doing what he was brought in to do!! Have a (rightful?) go at the management and team building!!
  8. Well in the Pirates graphic promoting Wednesdays meeting they are using a pic of Steve Worrall so I guess we are just waiting for the weather.......
  9. Only because they are in opposition again on Sunday.
  10. If he has his family with him, asked for and received permission from his club in advance as there was originally no scheduled meeting in World Cup week, I can't see the issue. Wolves are being made to fulfill the fixture because Sheffield have no other dates ( apparently)!! I thought it was the home team to be penalised if they can't fulfill fixtures - not the away team!?
  11. Poole had a load of new shale delivered in June which was being introduced onto the track in weekly lots so was likely to be differently prepared for each meeting.
  12. School holidays mean higher attendances usually.
  13. It's listed in the official GSAs as 3.61 from 26/7.
  14. I'm told promoters have already met and discussed ( and agreed??) the league format for 2024.
  15. Nothing wrong with a 3 night mini break in Poland!!
  16. Does that mean a reserve change for Sunday? If so, not many options under 3.61
  17. I wonder if all members of the GB World Cup squad have to be in attendance in Poland on Tuesday? If so it saves him going there and back again! Either that or it's a mini break at the Chateau maybe?!
  18. That explains it, you're still living in the stone age!! If concrete was used the current tyres would be shredded by the first bend!!
  19. I get the Unsatisfactory starts ruling, but whats the point if after 2 warnings and a d/q the rider is still allowed to race albeit with a 15 metre handicap in which the rider could easily get away with a rolling start again!? It's hardly a punishment at all.
  20. What? Even after a second warning? A reserve replacement I can understand, but allowing the rider back on 15 meters???! otherwise whats the point of official warnings??
  21. Judging by his comments on BSN commentary on Friday, Dickson would simply do anything and everything to get one over on Poole! He was still bemoaning Poole winning the play-offs last year at Kings Lynn, despite it was Leicester's inability to get their own track right for the 2nd leg!!
  22. Apologies if this has already been covered, but just catching up on BSN. How is it Craig Cook got a heat 15 d/q as well as a second warning and was still allowed to restart on 15 meters? As it turned out it wouldn't necessarily have affected the final result - just interested.........
