Our stand in manager was mad giving Lambert heat 15, it should have been Nathan, or Jake instead.  Last two meeting Lambert has failed to score in heat 15.

Especially after his illness & was going to miss the Glasgow meeting but Rob couldn't get a guest.

What is it then?

Not listening to advice from others. Not getting stuck in. Not knowing which of his 9 engines to use. Causing lack of confidence

Richard Lawson was out on his bike after the Scunthorpe match

Just as I thought we would come up short tonight. Too many passengers. Hagon terribly off form, Tobias not recovered from his injury and never been to Scunthorpe, and a guest who was pretty useless. But we took it to a last heat decider so over two legs no fear from Scunny.

Scunthorpe unbeaten on their track for a reason. They trap like no tomorrow and we were left for dead on more than one occasion. 

Well done to Scunthorpe. We had to lose sooner than later and it was expected.

Pooles team is built top heavy with 4 heat leaders so when that top 4 don’t score 40 Poole will struggle 

Joke to blame Hagon and the reserves they will never score loads that’s not how the team is built …. The cook brothers scored 7 each and that’s not enough to win a match

They will be happy with the bonus

Even more weird to blame it on the Cook bro's! Ben scored his average and Zach above. Sam and the reserves didn't do that so that makes more sense. Vinnie was really covering for Hagon struggling and with him out it really shows. 

Though a six point loss at Scunny carrying 3 riders is a pretty good result imo. 

Edit- even if we are discussing it on the wrong thread!

Best thing Tom Brennan did was move away to the midlands and away from the  South coast set up IMHO.

… The Cook brothers , Lawson and Brennan carry the team…. Most of your away wins are because one of Hagon or Thomsen has had a blinder and scored way above their average especially Hagon early on …. Now that Hagon and Thomsen are scoring their average then Poole will struggle when the top boys don’t get double figures
