Good track that's why, and a poor team :blush:

It didn't start off that way. I thought their team building was good - Howarth, Richie, Barker, Gilkes and Starke were a decent 1-5 but i believe they brought in Ben Trigger far too soon and Jake Turner turned out to be a dreadful acquisition. Starke was not committed to the cause, injuries hit Barker and Dan and too much was placed upon Kyle's shoulders. Just really tough luck at the end of the day but i thought Pearson was a good late signing for the Gladiators going into next season.

Totally agree, injuries, bad luck and a joke of a fixture list didn't help, but team just didn't click or get any momentum.

No, Scunny are at home so they are favourites. What I am saying is there is nothing to pull back as of right now it is 45-45 going for the BP on Friday. 

Ok...so you're being 'literal' :D

My reference to 'pull back' (easy tiger...) is from a view point that I think that Poole will be back as favourites after their trip to BP!

So, it's more of a performance 'pull-back', as opposed to the score-line one!

Apologies for the lack of clarity.....
