IainB Posted October 31, 2022 Report Share Posted October 31, 2022 53 minutes ago, Pirates Of Poole said: It looks like Buster has worked his magic and got the track back into shape! Think he will be required on Friday too to stop any last-minute issues depending on amount of rain over next 4 days! So, will Howarth be available now and will Morris be in the side? I'm not so sure he has, if you read flagrag's post and he doesn't normally post stuff that is wrong it reads as if they're putting the track down on the day of the event, so it doesn't matter how much rain we have between now and then, currently it's hammering it down. Question is how good a track can you lay on the day of an event to run a double header? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a Leicester Select side will race the Poole side on a muddy track - No mention of how many Poole riders will be on their way back to Australia come next week ? Probably 2 if it goes ahead Friday 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you say the Champions are Leicester and disregard the play offs then surely you must disregard the Premiership play offs too and make Sheffield champions. Why? There is absolutely no correlation between the 2 events, Belle Vue & Sheffield fulfilled their commitments to the play-offs, it was won on the track. You don't half post some rubbish, honestly you do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Shovlar Posted October 31, 2022 Report Share Posted October 31, 2022 As I said yesterday morning, the meeting is scheduled for Friday. A shame no coaches now coming up, so a loss of at least 150-200 Poole fans due to a work day. Still think we will have over a hundred Pirates fans making the arduous journey north. Poole at full strength. Are Leicester going to bring back Howarth from his honeymoon? Has he got any energy left? Is Morris riding or arriving in Aus? Hopefully both are ready to ride and we can (Final)ly celebrate back to back titles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't half post some rubbish, honestly you do. Poole and Leicester will fulfill their commitments too but some seem to want the play offs cancelled and revert to league positions. I am merely pointing out that if people want the championship resolved by league positions then so should the premiership. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I believe as long as deemed safe by match day referee and SCB track inspector (Who also happens to be Poole’s track curator) then the riders will be told to get on with it and get the meeting completed . Yes it may be heavy in places , may be wet spots hopefully not too many bumps but will be the same for all riders so they will have to use their skills and entertain the fans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arthur54 Posted November 1, 2022 Report Share Posted November 1, 2022 Well if it's rained as much in Leicester as it as just done in Poole, that track must be seriously under water Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
