A ORLOV

I have always wondered why the Start Marshall needs to stand on the track behind the bikes anyway getting hit by flying shale.

Can see a few clubs wanting to use Rohan Tungate as a guest but If Swindon want him back next year they have to be careful his av does not rise too much, also we do not want him riding for a rival or get injured.

The way Swindon are riding and with away meetings at Lakeside and Belle Vue, unless we have changes in the pipeline or a rider injury I do not think we will get to the play offs unless Poole or Lakeside lose all their remaining meetings.

Would like to see confirmation of the size and shape of the track as would not want a track that is too small like Oxford was that for me produced boring racing.

The meeting started well for Swindon and was ok up till about heat 10 after which our weaknesses were shown up. I hope Rosco made some changes at the weekend as we have a couple of riders that need changing. Justin was as bad again, despite stating he had sorted out his equipment and Nick and Josh did not do themselves any favours. Our two reserves were well beaten, if we continue like that we will not get to the play offs and will get well beaten in them if we do. What did make me laugh was Jasons comments when interviewed being asked about Roscos team talk, Oh we do not take any notice of what he says, said Jason.

Dont know about Poole but Swindon need to make a couple as well.

This is the paperwork relating to the permission, but there does seem to be one or two unanswered questions. http://pa1.swindon.gov.uk/publicaccess/files/2301C9ECE60FFFE2816D3B5C306A94C8/pdf/S_RES_16_0036--548184.pdf

As we have already had one do we get in free to this one

But they may have made but not announced them.

It is reported that Chris Holder will not be riding tonight due to migraine, Max Fricke steps in.

Having had more than one in the last few years I hope so to.

Hope we can get a point as we need to stay ahead of Lakeside.

BV 49 Poole 41, Poole lose by 8, tonights meeting will be interesting.

Adver report that the new stadium has been given the green light, I hope this is the case http://www.swindonadvertiser.co.uk/sport/14710673.Council_give_green_light_for_work_to_start_on_new_Abbey_Stadium/?ref=rss&utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=twitterfeed

I hope that this is true and await speedway at the new venue.

Certain Poole riders are not scoring and rumors on updates are that one is being changed, which if true, is of no surprise knowing MF.

Not if they ride like they are at BV

If they do not this could be the first of two losses today

Well it seems that Wolves fans have little faith in their club today at this double header to start a topic for either of the meetings. Swindon are the second half of this double header and visit needing to get some points to keep ahead of Lakeside and keep their place in the top four for the play offs. http://www.swindonrobins.co/news.php?extend.2755 If the roobins click they can get something out of this.

And that is the problem with a squad system, many riders will want a guarantee number of meetings or a retainer for signing for a squad if not allowed to ride for another club if offered a meeting.

According to the KL website and write up about tomorrows meeting he is still in the team lineup

Then they will get turned over at Leicester, not a good day for the pirates .

To add to this anyone going anywhere near the M20 to Dover, forget it, a footbridge has fallen on to the motorway which is now closed for a couple of days.

Looking at the news earlier it seems the whole country is going to suffer traffic jams this Bank Holiday with volumes of traffic and road works, so pick your route carefully.

That is the daft situation that happens.
