Poor result to come away with nothing would’ve been expecting at least 3 points tonight and to come away with zero is bitterly disappointing. 

Lawson again poor don’t know why we continue to put up with him. Poor night for all the boys tbh against a very average side. Need to be at it tomorrow or we’ll get thumped.

Poole is more of a fair track than Plymouth. I expect a closer meeting.

If you prefer bumps and shale coloured concrete Poole is definitely the place for you

Very true lol, edinburgh didnt lose the meeting Plymouth won it fair and square I didn’t hear one Edinburgh fan moaning about the result who was there they were very complimentary keleher in heat 14 with bowtell was worth the admission fee alone and then he was just as good in heat 15 with bjarnne  I can’t thank Poole enough for zane what a class act on track as well as off it .

Would that be the track with the big hole on the first bend,which the Poole lads were telling me you have to hug the inside or go out to the fence to avoid it:rolleyes:

Neither.

Were you at the meeting as there were several track grades &  some of the home riders & the Manager were directing remedial work @ the entry to the 1st bend.

However the Gladiators blew away the Monarchs over the last 3 heats & thoroughly deserved their 10 pt win

Doubt this guy has been to<Poole. Our track is in excellent condition. Fast, smooth and a racers track. No hiding place for riders who fate then hold everyone up. They get picked off.

Isnt HGould a Birmingham fan? He will be used to seeing concrete soon if the rumours about Birmingham are correct .

Rubbish. Crump scores six and we lose by ten. Taking a point should have been the minimum tonight.

The usual story - when one of our top 3 is below par we need rest of team to step up. After a 5 1 in heat 1 Willie reverted to form. Pleased Nathan in the points.

Poole's track last week was good...

A bit too slick probably but you could tell by the closeness of most of the  racing that the riders behind were confident that the rider in front, nor themselves, were going to hit any dodgy part of the circuit, hence were able to concentrate on racing, not just riding to ensure they completed the race..

And there were a few genuine passes made that were down to rider talent and not rider mistakes...

On other visits I have made  to Poole they have seemed to have MX 'whoops' down the back straight.... :D

Or maybe it was just the tide was in... ;)

Edinburgh will do well to get anything from there I would suggest given how strong Poole looked last week..
