thecoombdog Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 I'm not doing a Shovlar here, but I do think this meeting will be close. A lot of these Poole riders go well at Swindon. Swindon by 4 in a classic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 With the Poole riders dropping their averages to fiddle a new rider in soon, it's pretty obvious the pirates are going to take a stuffin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely and they will be looking to get back to winning and what better way to do that than to beat Swindon at Swindon. We all know the Poole team are capable of better and we shouldn't take anything for granted. I agree that it will be close with Swindon edging it - Poole may even get 1 league point. Hoping for a wider gap but I have seen battered teams turn up at Blunsdon licking their wounds and just being hungrier on the day and going on to win (hope that doesn't happen on Monday) Edited May 4, 2018 by Steve0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You must be naive if you don't believe that average fixing does not go on. It has happened so often in the past. I can remember Leigh Adams remarking on a certain team's performance in the past. I have never seen so many engine failures from 1 side in 1 meeting & when the engines didn't fail, they seemed to be running on go-slow fuel.

Maybe Shanes will come back in for Sczhepaniak at the end of the month and allow for another 7 or 8 point rider if any of the top 5 are still not performing?! ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A ORLOV Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 (edited) So now Poole have to rely on two of Swindons riders, that says a lot for the team hyped up before the season started by certain posters.
