Expand The problem is it's always in dead rubber meetings when it happens. Maybe they did ask lots of riders but it's not a coincidence that when there's nothing at stake then R/R gets wheeled out.

But we may not want to as surely Poole would want to second leg, so potentially be at Oxford next Weds or Glasgow next Friday and ride following Weds at home? Although sometimes I prefer having the first leg at home as long as you build up a decent lead the other team is playing catch up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corfe pirate Posted September 27, 2023 Report Share Posted September 27, 2023 I think Arthur's ire was aimed at one poster in particular.An individual who trolls Poole threads on a regular basis, (and P's a lot of people off in the process). I don't believe he meant any disrespect to fans of rival clubs in general. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
