  1. Well done Gb but but the format and rules are rubbish..Gb at home home each year v the same teams and now this crazy reserve rule and thats even before the joker ..tonights meeting has been poor due to the track and the gulf between the riders
  2. i hear that some extra cash was pushed his way
  3. Have they ? love him or hate him he done really well so far . guess you miss our result last year ?
  4. Yea that one change is vital for us to have any hope ...be such a shame if we don't at least try .
  5. Best meeting of the season by far tonight due to them getting the track spot on ...Swindon rode out of there skins to win that one in a meeting I gave them no chance of winning ...If only we get a decent replacement for Danny are we would be quite a good unit .
  6. Get well soon danny ..i hear its going be a long parade tonight to allowed the weather to get better lol
  7. Not really a question of saying yes or no based on one person ...no doubt research has been done on the subject hence why guidelines have been set ..rather that asking a rider if he's ok and or ask him how many fingers the doctors holding up . If 8 or 9 days is the rule then it should be stuck too .
  8. Most doctors would stick with him not riding ..most sports like Horse racing etc have these rules in place on concussion that are no doubt based on medical guidelines in the first place
  9. Great to see a swindon hero return home
  10. That Track should be used as a fairground ride ...more bumps than a maternity unit
  11. all teams do it and its sadly part and parcel of the sport and hard to proved and even if did have the prove they are hardly likely to act on it.this is what happens when you have a sport that rewards you for doing poorly .
  12. Ford knows how Poole fans feel .they want a winning team ..if starke does well and Poole do well they will forget about Newman in a couple of weeks ..speedway is a numbers game there is no time to be loyal .
  13. How long have you been watching speedway ..people dropping points so teams can bring in other riders Has been going on for donkeys years ..but somehow you are amazed and shocked .wake up
  14. they always worked out the same .the points per heat divided by 4 ..if someone scored 10 from 5 his average would 8 4 x 2 for example ..i am shocked you never knew that .
  15. Not sure if you noticed but Morris was slowing down so Kennett could pass ..as others have already said swindon looked like they not trying to to hard for what ever reason in some races .surely you dont think Kennett who was miles benind in each heat was going to beat morris from the back in the real race ..have a look what happened in heat 13 after Kennett was miles behind again..
  16. Yet again I not talking about myself but people in general a point that quite clearly you can't get your head around ..tonight was a crap a meeting in anyone's book .
  17. that was a ok meeting omg ..i hate to see your view of a not ok meeting .
  18. Zzz how boring was that speedway is in a bad place with this sort of league ..gp riders and then juniors etc ..its just a bad product .
  19. Good crowd ? Can't see it myself. the crowd v kings Lynn was poor and I expect after yet another long break after 5 defeats in a row to be even worst .
  20. as I said not about what I want ..crowds watch winning teams .you could get a product as great as you like but if you keep losing it won't matter.
  21. It's not about me or you it's just about people in General ...Swindon Town could play the most entertaining football but if they lose each week the crowds will drop . On the other hand if the play the worst football and keep winning 1 -0 the crowds will go up ...it's just common sense
  22. Common sense is that if are going to make changes the idea is to make your team stronger ..Quite clearly removing Grondal has make us weaker and cost us at least 4 or 5 points already ... the team at the moment is not strong enough so changes will have to be made unless you want the crowds to drop and put the club in danger of closing . Agree with racing being poor but having a losing team will have a greater effect on the crowd than want the racing is like ...the answer to your last question is that I want a winning team no matter how we go about it ..no good having seven riders that you can identified with if they get beat every week .
  23. what is a joke about changing your side so that you win .speedway is a sport Not a charity
