Second Choice Elite League Club?
Grachan replied to John Leslie's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Is that the same Sheffield who, in their last home match had 2 guests plus one rider who doubles up with Coventry? They were riding against a side who were using 2 guests and R/R. Must be a different Sheffield. -

Zagar riding in the Golden Helmet on Sunday so presumably he'll be back on Monday. -
Second Choice Elite League Club?
Grachan replied to John Leslie's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Poole for me. My second closest club and a very well run and professional outfit. Also very impressed with the way they have openly supported Darcy Ward. If Swindon aren't around next season I may make a couple of trips down next year. I used to like Coventry when Sandhu was running it. There was a yellow glow about the place and it had a bit of an aura. Went this year and it was like another World. -
Or don't get a programme. Instant profit.

I think he was from Bristol and used to travel the country selling pens. Kojak. Normally his verbals were good natured, but he was the cause of a mass punch up between the Oxford and Swindon teams one. Swindon won and were just coming out for a victory parade and he ran over and shut the pit gate on them. Next thing you know, mass brawl!

Swindon at full strength with no injuries? That's one way of looking at it I suppose. We are a bit hopeless though. -

Shouldn't have done. It was fun to get a bit of needle going for important matches. -

Probably old pictures, from when he had his original accident. One thing Zagar and Belle Vue have done, though, with their cheating is motivate the Robins and turn all the neutrals into Swindon fans. -

So? It's just a piece of local newspaper fluff, that's all. -

The supposed "neutral" fans were always against Swindon anyway. People have had it in for us since we signed Darcy. The insults now being thrown Rosco's way by the Belle Vue sycophants are ridiculous. Bringing the sport into disrepute? For heaven's sake. -

So let's get this straight. Miedzinski has an injury, rides abroad but doesn't turn up for Swindon. People have a go at Swindon. Zagar has an injury, rides abroad but doesn't turn up for Belle vue. People have a go at Swindon. Yeah, that's consistent. -

I think this is true. In fact, I think that not only could Belle vue win this tie but they could even win the title. I remember going to Coventry v Swindon, and coming away on such a high. I actually thought to myself that Swindon were going to win the title - and I never think that! To have the rug so cruelly taken out from under our feet just after was a real blow. Life always comes and trips you up when you least expect it! In the circumstances, I think we brought in the best replacement we could. But Peter riding as a second string throws the side out of balance, and Darcy's injury seems to have affected the form of the side - and Nick Morris in particular. We have two sides here looking to win and see out the time at their stadium in a big way. As you say, the momentum seems to be with Belle Vue, but if Swindon can all click then there's no reason why we can't still do it. -
Alun Rossiter visited his grave in Swindon just a couple of weeks ago. Apparrently it is still well attended to.

Tactical ride is also a bonus in the first leg if struggling.
-
Ah well, in that case an easy win for the Mighty Robins then.

Looks that way. Swindon definitely the underdogs against the flying Aces now that we've lost our number one.

Belle Vue, Kings Lynn Or Swindon For 3rd/4th Spot
Grachan replied to Trevor's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Oh right. Seems a bit unfair. In that case he'll probably pick Coventry and leave Swindon to get tonked by Belle Vue. -

I would assume he doesn't have to make a decision until after the 7 day window for injury signings. -
