You can't replace someone if he does in the semi final like he did last time as the seasons over ..not sure how many more time this bloke has to let people down before the penny drops ..only Lewis Bridger will let you down more .

How can there be good team spirit with Batch in the side ? no good scoring 30 points in 3 matches if your to bail out the moment he's feels a rain drop on his face in October . Nearly every Swindon fan never wanted to see him again after last time but somehow not long later it's all forgotten and he is a great signing .. a fruit fly has a better memory

So have you .

Thanks for the reply you speak very well I have to say ..its looks like your working hard and doing a very good job .My opinion won' change that unless the standard of rider picks up the crowds won' t also .Where you are etc makes you diffrent to any other speedway club and thou what your doing it' clearly working I am not sure it would have the same effect elsewhere .yet again thanks for the reply and good luck in what your doing .

I thought there were 5 in each team last year if you include the under 21 rider ....we all know it's a cost cutting exercise so don't TREAT people like they are stupid and stop being a puppet for BSI .

Really Poor signing ..Swindon fans must have short memories if they forgot what he did in the play off Semi Final last time ...he may do well for a time the but when going get's tough he will quit on us and let us down . Batch has one concern ..himself

People in general want to see the best and there team to win ..you could have the greatest meeting in the world but if your team get's beat each week fans will not come ...so great racing bringing in fans is a myth and down the list in what is in important ...the best riders get the best equipment as they are better in the first place hence they get the bigger clubs and better sponsors so they can buy the equipment ...Why do think Woffy got the chance to get better equipment than say Josh Auty ? the reason he was better in the first place . Lewis Hamilton Drives get to drive the fastest cars in F1 as they know he's the best driver ,Ryan Moore in Horse Racing rides the best horses as they reckon he's the best jockey. yet again it's not by luck that they get to position in the first place

They don't watch them thou do they .....people don't care about watching 4 riders of equal ability on lesser equipment it's a complete myth ..the general public in any sport want to watch the best even if the crush the oppo ...your post some up's why speedway is going to die in the uk .

it's been pretty simple each year the standard has dropped so have the crowds ...sadly you still have high % of fans ( lets have 7 local lads in the side who will wave to crowd ) who still fail to see this and think by getting rid of the top riders and having a weaker product it will somehow l bring back the crowds back and save speedway . As long as mind set stays that way then speedway will die .

Never seen anyone on here moan about it ..in fact it's enjoy by most ..the bottom line is the new format is a cost cutting exercise nothing more

Come on shov ..no need for that lol

it was quite clear that Doyle was not going ride for swindon weeks ago after the hint rosco dropped in the paper .like the rest of the fans i like Nick Morris but he's not a number one at this stage .Going to need a real strong second heat leader now .

That would not really be fair ..everyone accepts that if you win the win the league you have break up your side, was is wrong it should be your choice how you do it and who you lose . That is why the over 8 rule so unfair and a massive backward step .

Not 100 True thou money may come into it .The bottom line is if swindon could track Doyle and Morris they would and have the money to do so .Doyle may not want to ride for another club and might not want to anyhow so the rule itself has more bearing than just money

By the look at the press releases I expect they might .Add to that to the fact that Thorsell is likely to miss the el as well if he does not get a place at wolves. If the rule was somehow make to sure over 8 point riders got shared around it's looklike it's going to fail.

Does not mean that at all ...Doyle etc might not ride in the uk ...Making a rule that possibly could rule out a World Champion in the uk is madness .

It's was done by a vote after Cov won the league ..wake up and stop being so naïve .

What teams does the rule effect ? when are why did this rule happen last time ? what ave is Chris Holder on ..

The worst agm ever ..they take a step forward by going to set race nights giving them a chance to bring better riders in. then they take it away by only allowing one rider over 8 .yet again when Poole see teams with an a advantage along comes this crap rule .You have a points limit if teams wants to go top heavy then that should be allowed to . it's bad enough for swindon losing Thursday's but not having Doyle or morris will kill there crowds .it fact the league might lose the world champion completely .And finally the worst thing of all time bringing the stupid and unfair old ts sub rule back ..no doubt they must have listened to the fans over 60.Double points was Mickey mouse this is far worst what a joke .

How did we run our home plays off matches if dogs are on a Mondays night ?

Morris and Doyle must stay ..if the rest of the team is weak so be it .If you have the world champion at your club and you have the chance to track him you do so .

Sounds rather fishy to me .

Auty is shocking and nowhere near the level needed ...should have stay retired .

Good top five thou not sure your score that many points

Maybe they don't want to ...let's be honest if I was a former rider I would be more than happy to paid knowing it would help my club who badly need every penny . As I said before one of speedway biggest problems over the years have been the amount of people who are let in for nothing for one reason or another . If certain clubs want to do it then fair enough but I can totally understand if others choose not to .
