😂😂😂😂 think Ward's not the only one who has been on the Vodka

VISA has to be applied for once ban is up so article says middle of July he should be able to ride for whatever team he signs for

Not until 1st August when new averages would come in

Already guesting for Leicester at Lakeside 😞

Or even better sign an asset at reserve like Coventry, Poole, Belle Vue & king's Lynn have and then you wouldn't miss a rider due to fixture clashes 👍🏻

He's only back for this meeting

Listed as guesting for Leicester at Lakeside. Hoping Paul Starke is free 🙏

Swindon wouldn't have been given a facility otherwise and would have had to use a PL guest

How can you predict the bees reserves should out score belle Vue's when we don't know who one of them is. Last time he was out for a week we had to use Connor Mountain so let's wait and see who is is first 😁

Thursday June 25, 2015 ELITE League leaders Coventry are looking to continue an unbeaten sequence against play-off chasing Belle Vue when the sides meet at Brandon on Friday (7.30pm). The Buildbase Bees have six wins and a draw from their last seven encounters with the Aces, the shared result coming in Mondays 45-45 thriller in Manchester. And Bees will be on their guard for the return fixture as the Aces have produced some notable results on the road this season including a draw at Poole, a narrow win at Lakeside, and a thumping 53-39 triumph at Swindon last Thursday. Bees once again go into the meeting without James Sarjeant, who still has discomfort in his arm after his crash at Poole last week, and he is continuing physiotherapy and swimming with a view to returning in Mondays away match at Wolverhampton. Meanwhile skipper Chris Harris once again rides for the club 24 hours before a Grand Prix qualifier, as he heads out to Italian venue Terenzano after Fridays meeting. The Aces are led by former Bees skipper Scott Nicholls and Grand Prix star Matej Zagar, who can take an extra outing as the visitors operate the rider-replacement facility for the unavailable Craig Cook. And another ex-Coventry man Aaron Summers comes in to replace Max Fricke who is already on his way to Italy for the GP qualifier. Bees manager Gary Havelock said: Aaron certainly knows the fastest way around Brandon, and the Leicester match last week proved that you cant really take anybody for granted. It will be tough, but we just need to keep winning at home. We have to try and keep the pressure on Poole for finishing top, because if we start losing a couple of matches it will become much easier for them to pull away. If we keep winning at home and keep picking up points away, theyve got to do the same. BUILDBASE BEES (from): Hans Andersen, Jason Garrity, Chris Harris, Danny King, Joonas Kylmakorpi, Stuart Robson, Guest TBC. BELLE VUE (from): Craig Cook R/R, Josh Grajczonek, Scott Nicholls, Stefan Nielsen, Aaron Summers, Steve Worrall, Matej Zagar. It's great to see Harris riding for the bees and then travelling after the meeting. The result of this meeting could depend a lot on who the guest is for Sarjeant. There's not many options with Bates, Rose, Lambert already riding.

Would then mean teams pretending riders were injured so they could use a better rider

Going to be made harder by Wright being bottom of tier 1 and due to miss a few meetings during next month. On paper Rose should be one of the strongest tier 2 riders but Swindon need to get him firing.

I agree. He came in as a 3pt rider and has upped his average and scored more than 3 in most meetings

No not tongue in cheek at all. Lots of teams have to use RR for a heat leader esp if missing due to injury or PL commitments. Does that mean Coventry can say they are depleted everytime they have been missing Greenwood or Birmingham missed Ellis due to PL 😂😂😂 Birmingham are the strongest team in the league and I'm sure other teams will also lose to them. They are title favourites. There's no shame in losing to them

I'm confused, which team was depleted? Cradley only had 1 rider missing at the start of the meeting. Both teams lost their number 6 rider so that didn't disadvantage one side more than the other.

Both the speedway gold meetings that were shown were brilliant esp compared to a lot of the meetings on sky over the last couple of seasons.

Congratulations to Birmingham to beat Cradley and move top of the league again.

Surprised no Summers in heat 15.

Tracks often have this problem when sky are there

Dan Greenwood currently holds it for Coventry. He beat Zach in the recent meeting at Birmingham

Lambert is riding well for Peterborough tonight on his return from injury. Good news for Leicester

This is his last meeting

😂😂😂😂😂😂

Poole could be the biggest winner of Ward signing for Swindon. With him having been away for a while, he could end up with a nice below 7pt average to fit in to Poole's team next year.

Why Coventry Swindon 2010 meeting? Would have preferred the Poole V Coventry 2010 final 😀
