mdmc82 Posted July 3, 2014 Report Share Posted July 3, 2014 This could be a very close meeting as although Swindon have been struggling a little away from home, they have riders that ride Brandon well. At present both teams are only without 1 rider each. Bees bring in Lewis Blackbird in place of the injured Kyle Howarth. Swindon will be without Worrall who is riding in PL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woz01 Posted July 3, 2014 Report Share Posted July 3, 2014 Looking forward to this. Bees to win by 10 now we have 3 genuine heatleaders and Garrity riding fills me with lots more confidence. Any news on who is replacing Worrall? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmc82 Posted July 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2014 Not yet, Rosco having same problem we have when Garrity is missing on a Friday, poor rider availability Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MFE Posted July 3, 2014 Report Share Posted July 3, 2014 Does MJJ feel like riding tomorrow or do we get another lame excuse? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Voice Of Reason Posted July 3, 2014 Report Share Posted July 3, 2014 Was looking forward to this one too. Until I just checked the BBC Weather Forecast (generally pretty accurate). Rain tomorrow from 5pm, turning heavy at 6pm right through to Midnight. Think it's another Friday night down the boozer by the look of things.

stevebrum Posted July 3, 2014 Report Share Posted July 3, 2014 Does MJJ feel like riding tomorrow or do we get another lame excuse? The weather is warm so he might get sunburned. Probably too dangerous for the poor lad. Difficult to predict as both sides are unpredictable. On paper it should be about a ten ;point home win.

Bees_Man Posted July 3, 2014 Report Share Posted July 3, 2014 Weather will be the winner I think, and the meeting will be rearranged when half the riders are missing! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted July 3, 2014 Report Share Posted July 3, 2014 Weather will be the winner I think, and the meeting will be rearranged when half the riders are missing! At least if it rains it should dampen down the pollen count somewhat!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecoombdog Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 Me and a few of the boys were coming up for this one but the stupid FTD rider strikes again and Worrall's replacement is going to be a joke so saving our cash. More lost revenue for a club solely down to the draft. Pretty sure we wont be the only Swindon fans with that attitude as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was you id ask your promotion why you didnt make Worrall an asset while you had the chance. Choices are limited I admit but Luke Crang might be a good bet, obviously knows Brandon well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coventry have the same problem most Home meetings when Garrity is missing as Friday track and we have to replace him with rider 20th or below yet still the crowds have been really big. We beat Poole at our last home meeting with rider 20th on list instead of Garrity, you need to have more Fairh in your top 5 who ride Brandon well, Grieves also used to practice at Brandon before meetings so knows the track well (if he stays on) Weather update: very sunny & blue skies at present Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grachan Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 (edited) There do seem to be an awful lot of instances this year where a lot comes down to who can get in first with the best guest. Not really great for credibility. Edited July 4, 2014 by grachan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bees_Man Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 Will be washed out anyway. Band of rain on way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shale Searcher Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 Rain due in West Midlands this evening and overnight, it's arrival and its strength is not 100% clear cut, might not rain till 8.30, then only light drizzle until after dark, pressure not falling as quickly, if pressure rocks back to originally predicted figures then rain from 18:00 check again 3pm.... (Not thundery, just possibly persistent) Convective stuff to follow after 12:00 Sat afternoon... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dornier Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 Don`t think the Bees can win this one, they`ll probably do their party piece and give the Robins a head start and then be desperate to win in the final stages and just fall short, hope I`m wrong but thats my opinion .. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Crang won't be available as Storm are at Kings Lynn. If this meeting goes ahead. Rosco could do with giving the likes of Kyle Newman, Charles Wright Paul Starke, Josh Bates or Simon Lambert a call now that there PL meetings have been called off In fact just read Charles Wright is in.

A ORLOV Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 Charles Wright as a replacement for Steve is a bit of luck for Swindon and after last night performance a welcome one. Swindon could get some points tonight, if the meeting goes ahead. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
