thecoombdog Posted July 7, 2022 Report Share Posted July 7, 2022 (edited) 2nd visit of the season from the Swindon 3. Track prep was better than Poole as no dust until late on. Scotty is certainly dialled in around that place. Some class outside passes when no one else could make it work out wide late on. Impressed by all the work that has been done to get Oxford going again. A bit jealous TBH. Good crowd again and it all seems to be going well for the boys down the road. See you in August for the Edinburgh meeting! Edited July 7, 2022 by thecoombdog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Don't see the issue, as Fromafar said it's all about maximising earnings, wouldn't imagine they'd give a second thought what effect it has on the league table.

Expand Nah! Poole have been banging the drum about really wanting to finish top 2 for ages. And really he could have helped Plymouth win last night and could have made it very difficult for Poole to finish top 2. Seems crazy to me and have a bit of a bee in my bonnet about it.

Expand Poole management have said previously they won't stop their riders earning extra money from taking guest bookings. It's not about guesting in a general sense, it's about a team who we can't afford to get league points and go above us! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
