Poole missing the boat here to earn a few quid for their club. Looked at flights to Bournemouth - they only fly from Edinburgh on a Thursday and Sunday. Expand Could have caught that new train service down to London. Meant to be £30 return. Then Waterloo to Poole, every 30 mins, takes 2 hours 20. Train station 4 mins walk to stadium. Plenty of b&bs. Or fly down tomorrow for a mini break, returning on Thursday. Edited October 23, 2021 by Steve Shovlar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting. Expand No not for Glasgow or Edinburgh. Just Poole. We have to go Edinburgh, back to Poole, then a few days later all the way to Glasgow, then back to Poole.

Expand Not actually my point which was that in reference to your original post, for the League playoff final two leg tie only Poole have to travel up and down but somehow Glasgow don't need to travel up and down, and similarly for the ko cup final only Poole have to travel up and down but somehow Edinburgh don't need to travel up and down.

Mr Blobby Posted October 23, 2021 Report Share Posted October 23, 2021 Need a better performance tonight than we did last night. As we’ll need around a 12 point lead imo if we want to have a chance of silverware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Shovlar Posted October 23, 2021 Report Share Posted October 23, 2021 The size of the club has nothing to do with what league we are running in. Looking forward to watching the stream. However last time watching Edinburgh v Poole the stream played up and wouldn’t work on the iPad Pro, but worked on my iPhone. Hopefully no issues this time.
