mikebv Posted October 22, 2023 Report Share Posted October 22, 2023 Walking down by Poole Harbour and just been stopped by a bus driver... He has been booked to drive an open air double decker bus around the town at mid day to "celebrate a cup win or something" he tells me, but no one yet has arrived... He wants to know if anyone is turning up, or can he go home..? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that sound wrong to anyone else? I've always thought you get league champions & cup winners? For example saying FA Cup Champions sounds odd, I'd always say FA Cup Winners. noun 1. a person who has surpassed all rivals in a sporting contest or other competition.

martinmauger Posted October 22, 2023 Report Share Posted October 22, 2023 Well done to Scunny Scorps, been a long time since they won a major trophy. Esp pleased for Scunny team manager Dave Peet, he didn't have the most fun during his one season at Hull in 2005 & has suffered some health issues of late, good for him that he's well on tne mend & still gets enjoyment from speedway. Also Poole track staff did amazingly well to get the meeting on..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What ever gets decided at the agm is done in a democratic fair way,obviously Poole have a problem with that . Maybe now more promotions are sick of Poole's self interest and trying to influence other promotions that poor little Danny has had his feathers ruffled and possibly his fortune read and he doesn't like it and nor does daddy ford. By the way never assume! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawk127 Posted October 22, 2023 Report Share Posted October 22, 2023 Well done to Scunthorpe the better team won over the two legs. What I do not get is the the responses from both sets of fans and the aggression. Poole always put out a competitive team and when they are doing well they like any team they put bums on seats when they travel away. The current state of the sport needs clubs like Poole and every other team to come to tapes in 2024 but if for any reason Poole lost out because of circumstances beyond their control such as the closure of the stadium, the sport overall would be poorer for it. Swindon have gone and now Wolves and Panthers are lost, Kent and Mildenhall may be kicked into touch, surely it is time to appreciate what teams are left because without those speedway in the U.K. is dead. Continually knocking clubs is counter productive and whilst a lot of what goes on is good natured banter, you cannot help but feel some of the vitriolic comments are counter productive. The Scorpions did what they needed to do and Poole came up short. So what. Just look forward to next season. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes some things didn't go our way but overall we simply weren't good enough again when it mattered most. And to those that may be thinking 'flat white' well I'm drinking one right now but not to drown my sorrows but to say eres to next season, bring it on! C'MON THE BOYZZZZZ Hey there lbw, glad you got another flat white in just as the season was ending. Commiserations re Poole's loss but I'm sure you will come out fighting again next year. Always enjoy the Poole banter on the Forum and hope it keeps going through the winter months. By the way, had my first ever flat white coffee at Ascot (Champions Day) on Saturday and very enjoyable it was! All the best for next season!
