Coventry V Swindon - 21/08/2015

They did last night whilst Coventry were yet to confirm. Maybe they are just waiting until they hear otherwise. -
I noticed although anybody thinking we are going to sign him would be crazy. Maybe Poole or King's Lynn? What would his average be?

Taken from speedway star twitter @speedwaystarmag: After returning from his ban, @DuzersTeam bids to ride "as much as possible." Could an Elite League team make a move? http://t.co/8JBDBEshkV What would his average be though if he decided to ride in the EL?

In fairness to Horton, at the start of the season he did bring in Kylmakorpi to replace Jamrog after seeing what a huge mistake it would be to keep him. He also listened the fans suggestions of riders and look at what a huge difference that has made to our season. However the problem here is because we have had a good season and been top for most of it, I honestly think he doesn't see that we need changes. Whilst other teams have got stronger or improved in form, we have riders who are riding way below their capability and we also have 2pts spare at the most important time of the season. What he does or doesn't do this week with the deadline approaching could have a huge say in how our season ends. As I stated though, as well as a new signing, we also need some of our current riders to hit the form we know they are capable of. Injuries aren't helping either. Think this could be another year of how close but yet so far

That's the dilemma isn't it. If he misses tonight then we could have a 6 man team and definitely lose, however if he does race he could end up pulling out during the meeting or making his injury worse. We have injuries at the worst possible time -

If Garrity is out then Coventry will also be a 6 man team as even less time to find a guest This wouldn't be a first for bees though. I remember last season against table topping King's Lynn when Garrity was injured and NO rider was available to guest from the whole list. Coventry asked BSPA if they could use Luke Priest and have him added to the bottom of the draft. We were already using RR for a heat leader but as the meeting was due to start King's Lynn's manager put in a dispute and bees had to race with just 5 riders and 3 races with no rider in. And yet we still won convincingly! Proves it can be done still with the right team although not ideal. Hoping we don't see either team turn up with a 6 man team. Shame as this on paper had makings of a great meeting before if not for injuries & unreliable fast draft system -

Will this be the meeting that gets our promotion to realise changes need to be made? -
I don't think Poole are worried about King's Lynn making the play offs. The Pirates are already in the play offs as well
-
Should be a easy Poole win. With regards to Ashley Morris, Rosco apparently said last night that his play off rivals will now no longer let him use their riders as guests. It really is getting tense between the three managers but it does make sense

King's Lynn V Coventry Wed 19th August

Still no idea how Holder wasn't excluded. Then again look at who the ref was then - Peter Clarke!! Somehow he's always there in the Poole and Coventry contraversy -
It looks that way. Really hope this isn't the end of Lakeside Hammers and that something can be done so we see you racing next year. There will soon be no clubs left. The sport really is dying

I think to win the play offs they will have to improve on how they performed at Poole on their last performance as I still think over two legs, the Pirates might Nick it. -
Noticed this yesterday on Wowcher http://m.wowcher.co.uk/mt/www.wowcher.co.uk/email-deals/coventry/deal-408114-detail/6-instead-12-40-night-greyhound-racing-including/deal.html?Linkpos=Title&blockpos=1&deal=408114&st_cid=local21082015&st_rid=2377187&ito=wowcher_email_Coventry%252520Daily%252520Deals%2525202015-08-21__coventry_send_20150821_0555_4990200&cauth=DD3896D842F0ACC32896A901D2F4002BEBBA8B953E2317A1B6AE3ABFA7A3123A&un_jtt_redirect I thought the Greyhounds were no longer at Brandon or did I miss something?

Steve Worrall didn't qualify but was brought in as a replacement for Josh Auty

Belle Vue, Kings Lynn Or Swindon For 3rd/4th Spot
mdmc82 replied to Trevor's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Very disappointing to see a king's Lynn fan wanting riders to injure another rider, esp after some of the injuries we have seen to your own team e.g Kerr, Schlein. What would you wish from this fall, a broken bone? a head injury? Ligament damage? It should be about racing and winning that way. Even with Garrity, neither Coventry or King's Lynn with their shocking away form are going to win the league so I wouldn't worry. -
We are not going to finish top. I agree that a change is needed although I also think it's more than just bringing in a new rider that we need, we also need improvements in Hans & Sarjeant as both are capable of much more than we are seeing. It's a shame as we have been so good all season but look very flat at the worst time, but that's speedway for you.

I wonder why Lakeside aren't using Ashley Morris

Taken from bees website "Leicesters experienced Polish star Grzegorz Walasek, who has had two tremendous Brandon appearances this season for his regular club, deputises for Andersen, whilst elsewhere in the team Bees are awaiting fitness updates before finalising their plans. Both Danny King and Jason Garrity sat out their Premier League matches on Thursday as both have been suffering with back problems, whilst Bees will again have to cover for the absence of Stuart Robson." If Robson is still not back, it proves what fans have said all along. We should have signed a 6pt rider even if just for 28 days to start with rather than cherry picking 4pt riders. Not sure how it's going to benefit anybody if Robbo doesn't return until the week before the play offs, having not ridden for a month. Isn't that a risk we took with Barker returning for the first leg of the play offs last year and look how that worked out 😳 -

Yes saw earlier, thanks. Now we just need to know guests for King, Robson and Garrity 😟 -
Why did King's Lynn's manager complain about the track not being safe tonight? Didn't seem to be any incidents.

It's okay. If Garrity is out we could see Laurence Rogers or the bees mascot on a bike 😂😕
