Starman2006 Posted September 24, 2017 Report Share Posted September 24, 2017 Scores from Pirates last visit. Poole will need each rider to at least double their previous scores. Jack Holder 8+1 Timo Lahti 7 Hans Andersen 6 Paul Starke 3+2 Edward Kennett 3 James Shanes 1+1 Im really not sure that Jack can double his though.

ReadingRacer2017 Posted September 24, 2017 Report Share Posted September 24, 2017 Im really not sure that Jack can double his though. I think if he scores anywhere near 8+1 he would have done very well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidney the robin Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 I think this could be very close and Poole have a decent chance of winning overall all depends on Holder and Lahti for me my heart says a narrow home win though.

g13webb Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 I don't think this is as clear cut as everyone seem to think. Had this been played a few weeks ago I'd said Poole had no chance, but time chances everything. Yes I still believe Swindon will go through, but not before some squeaky bum time. A touch of the tapes, and E/F is all that is needed to create an upset. Knowing Poole's record in the PO's only a fool would dismiss them......

If Poole make it will need more than one bit of luck which we didn't get in the first leg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hyabb17 Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 Very wet start to the day. Was similar when we faced Belle vue a few weeks back & that rain carried on into the afternoon. If this stops when forecast & the rest of the day is dry & 16 degrees we should hopefully be okay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreverblue Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 Still raining now and forecast to do so until 11.Gives them 8 hours to sort it out. Ive seen meetings on when its chucked it down all day. We will soon know because they wont want to call if off late and upset BT again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRealFiend Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 so i posted this and you reply with this Please tell me how your response makes any sense at all!!!! Listen to The Doctor. It's not me. As for the meeting we now have a chance with the weather being a bit iffy. Remember Swindon vs. Belle Vue a few years ago. Swindon riders falling off left right and centre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveLyric2 Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 I really won't have any issues with the end result as long as Poole ride to their best form and there are no e/fs or crashes for either side and the ref is consistent throughout. Whoever wins what I expect and hope will be a very tight meeting, I will be supporting them in the final. ;-) Lets hope the track guys can start doing their thing in plenty of time after the greyhounds finish.

Pirate Baz Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 Still raining now and forecast to do so until 11. BBC forecast has light rain at 5 but ok after that. Met Office has the rain at 6 then ok. Who knows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecoombdog Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 BBC forecast has light rain at 5 but ok after that. Met Office has the rain at 6 then ok. Who knows? Still raining and no sign of a break in the cloud. It will be called off soon IMO. Can't see how the track will dry out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
