Crazy robin Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 Firstly to Sidney, and all you Swindon Fans well done, you really showed us up tonight and deserved your win. I never imagined gong to the Abbey was going to be easy, but I expected at least a point. Quite frankly, the way we fell away after the break, we didn't deserve one tonight. Remember Alan Hansen once said 'you'll never win anything with kids', and probably that could be right. I thought they would have performed well last night, getting better as they learnt the track, but that didn't happen. How many times did they get caught out on bend 2 after making the gate. Unfortunately, it was an off night for Niels and Kenneth as well, so can't imagine they offered much help to the younger members'. Rory was the only one to come away with much credit, He has been immense this year. Chuffed, in that we managed to get the stream on a big screen, but disappointed in the way we lost. Last night the Robins were the better team and deserved their win... How did you manage to get the stream on a big screen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ott2trot Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 The fact that a 50-40 home win by an established top flight club is even topic for discussion tells you all you need to know about how good KL are....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A ORLOV Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 A blip along the way for the Stars, but they will get a reaction i have no doubt about that.The race that really told me it was not going to be the Stars night was when Iversen gated twice and was long gone.But PK fell and it was rerun three times then of course Puk missed the start i did not stay after the meeting i wondered did Jack Holder get any laps under his belt.? Jack went round at the end with a few others including Nathan, it was not a race but he looked good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adder Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 How did you manage to get the stream on a big screen? If you have SMART TV you can link the output from your laptop to the telly wirelessly so i'd imagine they did it that way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pointsmeanplayoffs Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 Well done Swindon on a power packed 2nd half performance, proved to me that my prediction that THEY WILL make the playoffs (along with Poole, Lakeside and Stars) is still looking good. As for the Stars, one of those nights which thankfully haven't come around too much this season! Can you believe it's July and this is the first meeting of the season which we have left empty handed?!?! Madness! As for how to get the stream on big screen......go to windows start menu, search for 'magnify' and there you go! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Robin Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 Well !! It had to happen, the "Real Rockin Robins" turned up and showed what they are capable of. Delighted with all the team and our guest Charles last night, feel sorry for anyone who missed it. Was nice to hear Dakota say the atmosphere in the team was good, they showed they were all up for it. Rosco said he wanted a win and they duly obliged, bet he is delighted. Good luck at Coventry tonight you Robins 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebrum Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 Swindon seem as indifferent and unpredictable as Wolves this season! But fair play to the Robins for being the 1st team to take all points off the Stars this year so far, that was a big ask. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they put in the same effort next week they will also beat those pesky Pirates. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

g13webb Posted July 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 (edited) How did you manage to get the stream on a big screen? Connected the computer up to a 48" flat screen..

Shale Searcher Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 If you have SMART TV you can link the output from your laptop to the telly wirelessly so i'd imagine they did it that way? I was a fairly early adopter, my big LG tv is not smart, but it has A VGA IN socket, I connect my laptop and mirror the laptop on it.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnglishRoundabout Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 Great result for the Robins, and thanks to Charles Wright, who on the night was as good as Steve. Our second strings easily beat the stars and our heat leaders, apart from Troys first two rides showed what they could do. We need to do that every week at Blunsdon. Too many pessimists predicted we would get beaten. Also enjoyed the second half, we need one more often. i wa one of them pessimists Orlovski. That said, delighted with the result. The Robins continue to be the Jekyll and Hyde of the EL though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacques Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 Can't wait for that one Everyone bar Poole fans think that RR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 (edited) Jack went round at the end with a few others including Nathan, it was not a race but he looked good. Jack Holder did some more laps at poole on Wednesday - looked smooth - and we carried an interview with him in the programme from his visit the previous week. Looks like he will be over next year and will do at least one season in the PL out of choice. Edited July 4, 2014 by Skidder1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many pessimists predicted we would get beaten. Also enjoyed the second half, we need one more often. I was a major pessimist and was at least honest enough to say so on here after the meeting-I was in raptures over the way the Rockins went about it-blinking good stuff, let's have more! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stratton Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 Let's hope he takes after Chris rather than James then! He will be decent i believe, had a decent Aussie season, also he took his time on what he wants to do.Is he not going for his exams and get himself a trade? before he embarks on his speedway career.?
