You'd think they could schedule it so that it's home one week and away next week but no Glasgow v Berwick v Glasgow are on same weekend twice. Even more unbelievable Glasgow go to Plymouth the day after a home meeting.
-
Definitely not a Poole fan!
-
Great fixture planning home opener 18th April (Good Friday), then no home fixtures until 9th May 🤬
-
Think it's a lot easier to travel from London to Edinburgh than Plymouth. He could easily fly up. It's a long drive to Plymouth
-
So did the Glasgow management last season and that went well. Starkie talked the talk preseason but once the season started a total disappointment

Why does he even qualify as a 2 pointer? He's Australian -
That will be why Leicester sacked their manager when they weren't in a relegation place. No because the fans didn't like the style of play under Cooper compared to Maresca. Similarly West Ham got rid of Moyes and now fans are unhappy with Lopetegui. People are paying good money and want to be entertained
-
Don't think it has anything to do with the quality of riders, seen plenty of rubbish meetings in the Premiership. Even in SGP sometimes it ain't good. Compare Poole v Glasgow and Glasgow v Poole championship 2024 same riders but far better racing at Glasgow.
-
It's just like premier league football winning isn't enough, fans want to be entertained. Poole = zero entertainment yet their fans seem happy. Nobody else understands why
-
At Glasgow the racing was fantastic and we lost once at home to Poole 44-46 in a last heat decider. Seem to recall Poole lost one meeting at home as well and Oxford had won by heat 14. More importantly saw more passing in one meeting than the whole season at Poole
-
But they do spend money on their team at Championship level but nothing on the racing surface. One of the best meeting I ever saw on TV was the speedway World Cup at Poole but now the racing is garbage
-
I'm not saying there team weren't good I watched them many times winning away on BSN but I wouldn't watch them live at home except when hammering Glasgow because there was no passing after the first lap unless someone made a mistake. Take the last meeting of the season Ashton Boughen looks like a novice in first 2 rides then makes a start and beats Richard Lawson in his 3rd ride, then tailed off last in his 4th ride
-
S Finally it makes sense because I've never seen any track grading at Wimborne Road, just scraping dirt off the track. Something I've never seen at any other track during a meeting on a dry day. The Poole punters might be happy with the product on show but I'd rate the racing as the worst in the league.
-
I stand corrected. I thought Riss had a higher average. Think Edwards, Mulford and Piper should help them to plenty of heat advantages. Now they just need to find someone to prepare the track as last season wasn't as good as previously
-
Over 40 if Riss is 1.5 times his Premiership average. Is that still the conversion rate? If so 40.72
