I thought it was to do with WC week before I read it. 'There’s no facility available for Ryan Douglas or Steve Worrall though who are simply on holiday.' I wonder if all members of the GB World Cup squad have to be in attendance in Poland on Tuesday? If so it saves him going there and back again! Either that or it's a mini break at the Chateau maybe?!

The H Man Posted July 24, 2023 Report Share Posted July 24, 2023 Poole fans - my business partner is bringing along a group of people for a first time visit on Wednesday, is there general access to the pits (or paddock as he loves to call it) pre-racing and if so, any ideas on times etc? Thanks Paul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the food outlets have anything to do with the management, so maybe not bothered about fans bringing their own food. Not like they search anyone's bag or anything when they go in.

Don't you dare even think about bringing your own food in.. Although Christina Turnball brings her cakes in for the Poole fans who sit in the front of the refs box in case she makes a controversial decision, so if a ref is allowed...

Wonder if Rory Schlein will be fit or do Birmingham require a different no 1 guest? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think you,ll need a camping chair as there is plenty of unreserved seating either in the main grandstand or behind glass in the backstraight stand built for the now non-existent greyhounds.

You can still achieve that in the seated areas as long as you dont leave it til 7.30 to get in! There's not really any decent positions around the stadium bends to sit without the risk of people standing and blocking your view. There is the area at track level in front of the grandstand on the home straight - several wheelchair users are positioned there amongst those standing. Not sure what the attendance will be like although Poole haven't had a home meeting for a fortnight and it is the school hols and the first opportunity to welcome back the BSN Series Champions!! Enjoy. Edited July 24, 2023 by Skidder1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LisaColette Posted July 24, 2023 Report Share Posted July 24, 2023 He trying to do the scoreboard pressure thing that Scott Mitchell always talks about! Although Starke at 5 is pretty funny. Bet the reserve finishes ahead of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was certainly our best rider in the play off semi demolition when he guested. Being bit harsh on Starkey there on his recent Poole form Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lacking any sort of pace or, form. Dreadful signing so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
