Think I must be the only Poole fan who thinks we haven't a hope against Swindon.

I think vs Wolves we would struggle, against BV potentially do okay at their track as it's not a specialist one but Cook, Worrall and Kenny Bjerre all on good form in the last week. That just leaves Swindon, with injuries (reserves - will they be back in time?!) and their form at Rye and Wolves I'd say they are the lesser evil.

They will need BWD back although Newman could guest.

I think this years play offs could be the best Yet, still don't think we can beat Swindon but you never know, bit of luck here and there.

I think we have a chance. Swindon are overwhelming favourites but it's possible. Matt needs to organise a good practice session for next Monday afternoon and get the track nice and slick from the start of the meeting.

 

Downside is we or anyone else will have no chance against Wolves on their tricky little track. Too much home advantage.

Agree. We've got a chance against Swindon for sure. Even if BWD is back he might not be fully fit.

 

Wolves should win the league again. Monmore is a massive home advantage for them.

Since the history of the playoffs, has a team qualified who has lost 5 on the bounce at home, one with a scoreline of 30-60?

 

Not that I can recall. 5 losses at home usually means bottom of the league. But the resilience of this Poole team has suprised everyone, and the reason they go into the playoffs as the complete underdogs, and the team neutrals will be supporting en masse.

 

Poole Pirates. 'The Peoples Team". You can almost hear the roar, "Come on Pirates", from hundreds of thousands of lounges, parlours, sitting rooms and bars right now.

Excellent Steve, that did make me smile. Well done.
