PIRATES TEAM MANAGER: Neil Middleditch
PIRATES will face Swindon just once on Good Friday – rather than the original two meetings.
Poole will begin their Elite League title defence when they take on Alun Rossiter’s troops at Wimborne Road at a revised 12noon start time.
They will then face Swindon away in Easter Sunday's rescheduled encounter (4pm).
Pirates are hoping to secure an unprecedented fourth straight top-flight crown in 2016.
