Max Fricke for me. Even guested and did well as a heat leader in the EL

Also mentioned there aren't many out there but would have a look. I personally would be happy having Hans back again. Yes he burned out a bit near the end but also had some really good meetings this season.

Didn't see him yesterday but he is usually there on EL race nights.

Colin Pratt is in charge of the track. It changes every time we have a meeting on it. Produced some great racing in our EL meetings this year though. They seem to struggle after stock car meetings

Think assets in the draft should continue to be protected next year as look at the sides that have now decided to have a NL team next year or brought assets. Been a good move.

Did he really hurt his ankle (even though no crash) or was it so reserves could cover him as he was scoring poorly?

Why did Greaves withdraw from the meeting?

Well done Coventry Storm in keeping it close, looking forward to the return leg next Wednesday.

Greaves said: In response, Greaves questioned the leadership of Rossiter and Batchelor on Facebook, and said the reason the Robins dropped out of the play-offs was down to the lack of team spirit in the Swindon camp. Greaves wrote: Im not one for doing this but I really cant help it, Roscos review on the season is all rubbish, you all think hes an amazing manager? Theres so many things fans unbeknown to the fans what is proof of him being amateur, and troy a good captain? Hes by far the worst captain out there, he didnt help me once, neither did he even speak to me, one night I was stood outside the changing rooms and a little girl asked me to ask Troy how long he was going to be so he could have his picture took, I asked Troy, and he just totally ignored me. The only thing good about Swindon is the fans. They stuck by me throughout, and the comment he made about my dad, the race I was beating Nick Morris, Nick raced me into the corner passed me, all my dad did was go to Rosco and say nicely why Rosco why did he do that what if Nath fell off then it wouldnt be a five one, why couldnt he protect him? Rosco stood there and said nothing, really sorry but its annoying how everyone on here has a false impression of what really goes on, Coventry beat us, because there better riders helped the other riders and they were a team Swindon was every man for them selves.

The Swindon camp sounds how it came across during the season with zero team spirit. That said Nathan does seem to have a terrible attitude (as he showed with Cradley recently at Brandon) not sure how he can call Rosco a amateur

I have loved the 2014 team so would like to keep as many of them as possible. It's hard to name exactly which team I would like as what will happen with FTD & points limit unknown as well as the talk about Aussie riders not possibly not being able to D/UP. Personally: The first 2 riders I would love to hear announced ASAP would be: Chris Harris & Kyle Howarth Riders I would love to see in team next year: Hans Andersen, Max Fricke, Jason Garrity, James Sarjeant, Simon Stead, Zengota, Kenneth Hansen. Would also be happy with: Nicholls, Larsen, AJ, Summers.

The stadium has not been sold. The company that is trying to get permission to build houses is ran by Sandhu

Congratulations to Poole on the win Have really enjoyed watching the 2014 bees and it's been a brilliant season. Did us proud reaching the final. Howarth has really grown as a rider.

Think it's going to be tough. Would have been better with a guest for Barker in first leg, without rain and then we may have took a lead. Has Fricke ever ridden at Poole before?

What is wrong with Coventry using Fricke to guest for the injured Ben Barker who anybody could tell wasn't fit and that was before he fell again. It's no different than getting guests to replace Josh & Benji on Friday. Think Poole will be strong enough at home as been good at home. I'm proud of the bees whatever the outcome tonight. How is the weather and is the hole now sorted?

Barker fell in his last race on Friday and with his injury already sore he made it worse. Fricke in as a heatleader

Doubt it. Think it's just cos we have a full team they haven't felt the need to. They have just named Pooles guests.

Bet a lot of Swindon fans would have rather he got 5-1s for them in the semi. Batchelor and Morris should be okay tomorrow as the track should be dry without any shale, how they like it.

How was Stefan in his first meeting back from injury?

Fingers crossed for a return for Birmingham very soon. X

being in my 30s I'm afraid not. would get my daughter in though. x

For all those who moaned about Horton charging £20 for the final, it is also the same price to get in at Poole. Can underStand why both have put price up for a final. Is it free to children as it is at coventry?

Agree with Rosco that it would be a good idea to have the reserve pairing made up of 1 FTD and 1 British rider. Don't think it would help British speedway having reserves from other countries starting at reserve. Also keep it so they always stay at reserve like this year.

That's the thing. It's hard as we don't know who will still be on the draft (or though surely Rose should still be protected unless certain club with no assets in it then changes rule) We don't know if it will still be 2 from FTD or as some are suggesting 1 FTD and 1 rider of any nationality not on there.

There aren't really Swindon riders as such now as season over so more Poole Guests. I am keeping fingers crossed that Morris rides like in the semi but bet he won't. We are going to be carrying Barker anyway so can only see a Poole win. If we had been taking a 6 point lead then I would be confident but will no lead I'm not. Shame the rain had to come on Friday. Really proud of the bees team, what ever happens tomorrow. They have been one of the best teams we have had in ages. Had brilliant season home and away and made the final.
