Crazy robin Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 With Steve at no 4 in the draft now then I imagine Charles Wright will be getting a call but he's got big shoes to fill as Steve has been the bright spot of a poor season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hagonshocker Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 35 (incl tactical) 57.....total mismatch coming up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chalkie Posted July 2, 2014 Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 Lynn win for me. Despite the pleasing form of our top two, the Stars are a stronger unit and Blunsdon will hold no fears for their side. In NKI and Schlein they have two of the better and consistent riders seen at Swindon in recent times. Welcome back English! Looking forward to this but can only see a complete trashing of the Robins and it takes a lot for me to say that! 35 (incl tactical) 57.....total mismatch coming up Agreed, total annihilation due-if it don't drizzle a bit at 7:20pm!

A ORLOV Posted July 2, 2014 Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 No indication yet who will be replacing Steve for this yet, what is more of a concern is who will replace him on fri at Coventry as eight PL clubs are racing that night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles Wright in for tomorrow. Friday's replacement may be a tad harder to find! And a lot lower down that list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
van wolfswinkel Posted July 2, 2014 Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 35 (incl tactical) 57.....total mismatch coming up Give the Robins a bit of credit !..will now go 38-54 without Worrall. The rest really need to step up to the plate, after the last home meeting when they threw it away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reliant Robin Posted July 2, 2014 Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 Coventry have had problems replacing Garitty for home meetings. You're looking at Lambert or similar. Indeed, not ideal. With 8 PL teams in action, 4 EL teams and 2 NL teams I think the top 20 or so in the Draft are automatically ruled out 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdmc82 Posted July 3, 2014 Report Share Posted July 3, 2014 Will steve worrell be here or with Edinburgh at redcar Charles Wright a very good guest for him Indeed, not ideal. With 8 PL teams in action, 4 EL teams and 2 NL teams I think the top 20 or so in the Draft are automatically ruled out That's where the draft is flawed. We have Garrity scoring 3,3,3,2,3 at Brandon and then next meeting we have to use riders 20th and below to cover him when he's 3rd on list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have Garrity scoring 3,3,3,2,3 at Brandon and then next meeting we have to use riders 20th and below to cover him when he's 3rd on list Its no different to rider replacement for a number one and there is hardly any suitable guests available and you have to choose a second string standard rider or a rider with a much lower average. No different at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritPete Posted July 3, 2014 Report Share Posted July 3, 2014 Well, I'm not going to be negative about tonight! Swindon win by 2-4 Thank you. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A ORLOV Posted July 3, 2014 Report Share Posted July 3, 2014 For those who do not have to rush away after the meeting tonight there is a second half with 6 heats of junior riders. http://www.swindonrobins.co/news.php?extend.2241 Is there any news on Lewis Rose following his accident last night.

g13webb Posted July 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2014 (edited) With his omission from the GB SWC squad lets hope young Robert bangs in a nice double figure tonight to show what Team GB is missing out on As much as it pains me to say this, but I think Rosco was right in leaving Lambert out.. ....... I believe he is too young and still learning his trade. His time will come no doubt, a lot sooner than some expected. He's going along quite well at the moment, scoring good points. Lets not rush him..... In a couple of years time, he'll be the first name on the list, well probably second, and there wont be any doubt of his inclusion.. Let just wait....... Post edit: Would still like him to score double figures tonight though........... Edited July 3, 2014 by GRW123 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Post edit: Would still like him to score double figures tonight though........... Agree with all that but wouldn't it be nice if he could be in the pits as a mechanic etc in the same way the Aussies have their youngsters there. He would get a helluva lot of experience out of it with no pressure on him at all. He could even be Rosco's prog filler inner Same goes for Garrity and Blackbird, have them in there to gain experience, even if only to see how the likes of Hancock behave when under pressure to do well for their nation. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense that to me, I seem to recall pretty much EVERY Aussie riding in the UK at the time was in the pits supporting their team in the 2012 semi at the Norfolk Arena.
