SteveLyric2 Posted October 13, 2013 Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 And that's the trouble when you make assumptions! I hadn't realised I had to explain myself but just for you ... I wouldn't have a problem having Batch back as he seems to have matured this last 2 years. However, with the expected reduction in points limits I'm not sure how he would fit in the team. Also, as has been well documented, we aren't rolling in money so best for Patch to keep his hand in his pocket - or maybe another year's loan - just like PUK was allowed to do Is Patch still involved? or likely to be involved in 2014? Not having a dig, just asking...!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crump99 Posted October 13, 2013 Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 I wonder if Rick Frost accepts Monopoly money? - with Swindon Speedway being on the Monopoly board now that's the only money he's getting They've introduced a new Swindon players' piece haven't they?

Crazy robin Posted October 13, 2013 Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 Does anyone think the robins will stay in the Elite league next year especially without sky. My understanding is that they would look to join the premier league with Leicester joining the elite league in their place. I certainly hope so as had enough of Elite League speedway. A top 2 of Doyley & Nick would be a good start to a team as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with that Robin, i have had anough of the EL also but if the Robins are forced down they're are other clubs alot more in the mire than the Robins.

They assist with your team building and Poole didn't see you as a threat so didn't need to bother the BSPA further. Excellent contribution from our purple boys at Wimborne Road for the ex-champions, a combined score of less than Poole's best reserve!

Probably just getting his own back from the crap a few Swindon fans have chucked his way over the last year. To be fair if you cannot take you shouldn't dish it out 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would appear that Patch has left the club! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnno4 Posted October 14, 2013 Report Share Posted October 14, 2013 Yes that was the rumour going around a couple of weeks ago that Patch was no longer involved with the Robins. It came about following all those stories that riders were not being paid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foreverblue Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 Nothing wrong with Jim Lynch imo. Good bloke.

Terry Russell announced a few seasons ago that he was looking to sell his stake, but now appears back on the scene. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
