You had a nice dream last night?  Sounds like you are still asleep

I wouldn't be at all surprised if Ipswich keep it close tonight to be honest, I think both semi finals could be really tight

[Andy71]

We (Poole) really need to hit the ground running as we’ve done in a few semi finals at home 12-6 after 3 heats will help the lads relax and go out and hit a big score.

Often heard Football Managers talk about Bumps in the Road    as a negative thing during a season. When it’s talked about at Poole it’s deemed a positive

home advantage .could be different tonight though with the rain we have had this week looking forward to a close meeting

I expect the track to chop up tonight.  The rain will have collected in the holes and will make soft patches.  Could work in Ipswich’s favour. However the pirates are very capable of winning at foxhall.  

Should be a great semi final. Good luck and safe  riding to both teams.

If the track is wavy again with a deep line out wide it will be a close encounter as Witches have the like of Bomber, NKI and King who are not afraid to ride one foot from the fence, I feel they rode very much within themselves in the recent league match there where as Poole, Especially Josh, really was going for it.

On paper for me this is one of the most exciting play off series for a long time, (if your a neutral) all four teams are very capable and therefore I hope each semi is very nip and tuck, all too often in the past we have had semi finals that have been so one sided and all but over after the first leg and you just want to skip to the final itself.

The Swedish finals was so boring because Smederna walked it, fingers crossed we see two epic semis and a final in our own league, Don't care which team wins, I want Speedway and the fans to be the winner.

I’ve heard all the views from here there and everywhere.  Where is the Shovelar ?  What’s his opinion on the way it’s gonna go tonight ?  (am now preparing to hear the biggest fence sit ever written)

[Andy71]

Weather still ok ?

[Arch Stanton]

I refuse to believe we have even a small chance, until Geoffrey says we have no chance at all 

[Pirates Of Poole]

Any rain in Poole? As plenty in Wimborne area!?

[Steve Shovlar]

Just had a sharp heavy shower at the track. Cleared now.

Yea  but that was before the rain 

[Steve Shovlar]

They were watering the track with the dirty rain cloud approaching. Track looks ok. Tiny crowd. Less than last week. All watching it at home.

Is the tide in or out?

Looks like Josh G is riding for Ipswich tonight.Didn't realise their kevlars were so much alike.
