HGould Posted May 1, 2023 Report Share Posted May 1, 2023 Hope for Gladiators sake they can have a referee who can see when Lawson tries to fence someone and doesn't award a 5 1 to Poole when a Gladiator clearly wins the race 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is nothing wrong with it. Eastbourne used to do it all the time, still just using the track to your advantage. Home team can prepare it how they like as long as it stays safe.

HGould Posted May 1, 2023 Report Share Posted May 1, 2023 Having had their Pits phone ripped off the wall by bad tempered Ginger whinger Middle ditch, any truth in the rumour that Mark Phillips is travelling in his Tractor to demolish the Poole Pits. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF gates are being prepared differently for home riders like dear old Bob used to at Arlington then that most definitely is cheating and not just home advantage. Like I said, IF. Anyway, thoroughly enjoying this thread so far and I see Mr Phillips had his fishing rod out last week, did he get any bites Edited May 1, 2023 by Bagpuss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said, IF. Anyway, thoroughly enjoying this thread so far and I see Mr Phillips had his fishing rod out last week, did he get any bites I don't think it is. I used to laugh when Eastbourne used to do it! Plus no one goes near the start line at Poole in between each heat. Tractor only goes out after every 3/4 heats. So unless the invisible man is doing it, it isn't happening! Also I got a fair few likes for my 'biting' on twitter Edited May 1, 2023 by lisa-colette 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
