Steve Shovlar Posted April 9, 2017 Report Share Posted April 9, 2017 The weather looks to be set dry on the long range forecasts for Good Friday. Lets hope it stays that way. Poole v Somerset at 11 am, followed by Somerset v Poole at 7.30 pm. No KK for Poole as he is riding in Poland. Danny King guests in both meetings. Not much of a choice for Poole as other clubs riding. Hopefully he will rider better for us than against us (for Leicester) King has never been any good around Poole so not the ideal guest but we should have enough fire power to see off the rebels. At Somerset its a different kettle of fish. Kurtz and Holder and to a lesser extent King know the track but the others have limited knowledge. Still, it's there to be ridden and I am sure the Oak Tree will be packed out with Somerset and Poole fans plus a lot of holiday makers from the nearby caravan parks. Looking forward to it. Thoughts?

SomersetBlue Posted April 9, 2017 Report Share Posted April 9, 2017 (edited) Going to both meetings, we'll get beat at Poole but whether we can bag a point? Starke and Josh obviously know the track and Wrighty and Patrick are going really well. However Rohan and Graversen are struggling while Allen hasn't seen the track competitively. If Tungate can get going I think a point is capable, if not then i doubt it. At Somerset Poole are capable of getting a point but think Somerset's middle order should be good enough while Allen will be a match for Poole's secret weapon in Klindt.

What time do you recommend to get there to park up ok Be in the carpark by 9 am latest is my opinion. If its full start looking in the nearby roads and walk across to the stadium.

You will be the one looking the numpty if you get turned over at their place. And there's every chance that could happen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to both legs! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted April 9, 2017 Report Share Posted April 9, 2017 There is an official 'overflow' car park at the school next to the stadium - I assume this will be open?!

Stadia UK has increased its car park admission to £2.50 as from last week!! it is safe to assume the car park will be empty! Never use the car park myself always park in side roads, may be a bit further to walk but the exercise is good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On some of the roads and car parks round the area mate, but just be careful where you park on the roads Wardens will be out in force.. Tattum road is always good. but as i say, be careful.

I have always parked in the carpark for free as there is never anyone in the box when I get there, but if they wanted £2.50 I would tell them where to go and park somewhere else. If everybody did that they might reduce the price to something sensible. Edited April 9, 2017 by A ORLOV 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The car park at Poole is run by Poole borough council not Poole Speeedway, and they have just put the car parking prices up in all the town car parks!!

Quite right they have. But fans should be warned our car park will still fill very quickly on Friday. But as pointed out, the school overflow will be open.
