Hoping for another 66-24 battering, but deep down want a humdinger of a meeting. And the famous Abbey roar. Robins fans coming from Wales, Southampton, Surrey, etc., Come on Robins!!!

Even though there are over 70 miles between them it is classed as local derby..hope they don't go down. Get Zummerzet back up..70 plus miles away.

Would like to see 18 team league..and fixtures April-September.

Poole will be missed at The Arena..and their bank holiday cash.

Swindon...Jason Doyle Captain

I just fear Ipswich, i quite like 'em, will go the way of Wolves and end up in the Tangerine crushing machine...broomsticks as well! Will be surprised if Robins don't hit at least 58. They did score 44 at the Abbey once but Piecheck and Edward were reserves. The Robins have great mental strength, and just batter teams, especially in last third of meeting. Let's do the Double!

Will be a massacre. Have never won Grand Final in front of home fans. Let's pack the Abbey.

This is the best Swindon team I've seen, better than 2012 and 2017.

Superb from the Strawsuckers!

And it's Hi Ho Swindon Robins!!!

Perhaps that was 10 years ago! Or have I added an extra nought. Someone said on here about 17-18000 per week attend?

Er indoors was chatting to him earlier was on the London to Swindon coach. Busy guy.

Listening to the BBC Radio Wiltshire coverage tonight. Come on you Robins

Admire anyone that travels on coach to meetings that may or may not be on. Lee has done a fantastic job and crowds have increased at The Arena this year. The sport needs more Kilbys, Bishops...

They wish for 25000. I recall Mr.Rising saying up to 20000 on a good week I.e. Cardiff GP.

They only seem to need more than 1, 2, for Cardiff GP. The final doesn't draw the big crowds like it did 10-15 years ago

Good to see some speedy action on BBC West tv this morn. They said Robins were riding tonight tho!

What a coincidence..our team in Swindon was Carshalton Crusaders..white and blue.

Same as riders like Keener, Hitchy, Munday, Bouchard, at Swindon, great club servants, solid, never superstars, and the fans loved em.

Excellent magazine

Remember the old Cheetahs team, late 60s, Genz, Geran, Goody, Pander, Timmo....

And possibly Thursday. Good job about 98% of fans dont bother with this forum, silly soddin slanging matches. Quite like the Witches team, with their English riders. The first leg could be at the Tangerine Arena!?

Started going in 1968 for about 5 seasons, faves Hitchy, Briggo, Broady etc.,then near 40 year break, faves since Adams, Steady, Rico, Gjedde, Doyley, Zagar, Muesli, Bellego etc.,

I hope it will be close otherwise peeps will not have the same enthusiasm for the second leg. Will go Suffolk Tractor Boys 45 Wiltshire Strawsuckers 45.

Come on Robins..Good luck, hope the weather is ok and no repeat of semi at Wolves on the quagmire.
