This is a Southern League Premier fixture, with the next local derby being on 28th March. Poole are 2nd in the division, having played 29 matches with 57 points, whereas local rivals, Weymouth have played 30 and got 50 points lying 4th. So it really is a double header tonight.
The Dolphins were founded in 1880 and played local league football, then county and now sit resplendent in the pyramid. They have plans to move to a porpoise (joke) built stadium, something to match the Bob Lucas Stadium at Weymouth.
El Jurassico? Any self-respecting geographer/geologist will be familiar with this title for a unique coastline, including Durdle Door and Chesil Beach; it is the Jurassic Coastline, of World Heritage fame. A coastline that reflects the formation of landforms duing the Jurassic Period and since. (if that confuses you then watch Jurassic Park)
Both towns benefit from the attractions forded by the Jurassic Coast and if you haven't been there, then you should not miss it.
No really, an ammonite in the hand is worth an Evening with Barry Fry!
