T.N.T. Posted December 5, 2013 Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 (edited) Have to admit that I don't like the idea of such a key rider doubling up as it can be a major problem when they are missing, especially away so I can see why they may be going with Kildemand 8.25, Batchelor 8.21 and Morris 5.90. That would leave 9.64 for the last two places which should be enough to cover the second string places. Ricky Wells 5.35 looks to be available from Wolves but tend to agree that Simon Gustafsson 5.17 would be a better option if he is available from Eastbourne as he needs a change of track and could be a bargain and leave enough for Lasse Bjerre 4.28 maybe. Whichever way they go you can be sure Swindon will be up there again and in the play offs. Hopefully Jason Doyle will find a different team to ride for soon Edited December 5, 2013 by T.N.T.

A ORLOV Posted December 5, 2013 Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 Good start for the top 5, glad Nick is back. He improved last year and should do so again in 2014. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloves Posted December 5, 2013 Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 Was just wondering, does Nick Morris qualify for a British reduction in average??? I thought he had declared himself for Australia so it wasn't applicable but can't remember. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A ORLOV Posted December 5, 2013 Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 Another signing due to be announced tomorrow. Reading Andy Warren's tweets "Jason Doyle is not necessarily out of the Robins plans after all. Things may have changed." Hope something can be sorted out 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnglishRoundabout Posted December 5, 2013 Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 What are your opinions about this top five for 2014?. 1. Peter Kildemand 8.25 2. Mads Korneliussen 6.97 3. Rory Schlein 6.84 4. Nick Morris 5.90 5. Ashley Birks 3.06 top five total = 31.02 That side is a pretty good alternative to some of the Swindon teams being talked about on here Elite Robin. Exciting to watch, a team of racers, Blunsdon track specialists and room for improvement with all 5 I reckon. Schlein, PK, Mads and Nick can score pretty well at most EL tracks so this team would give value for money away too. Personally Ashley Birks in the top 5 wouldn't worry me as he would hold his own against other sides 'lower order' second strings, for example, Howarth at Coventry, Gracjonek at Poole. 1. Kildemand 2. Birks 3. Korneliussen 4. Morris 5. Schlein 6. Worrall 7. Bates 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading Andy Warren's tweets "Jason Doyle is not necessarily out of the Robins plans after all. Things may have changed." Hope something can be sorted out No idea how/why Doyle is still in our plans?? Morris and Doyle are both riding for Somerset next year. Or would we have first dibs on Morris and Doyle when there's a fixtures clash because we own them?
