A ORLOV Posted July 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 Very hot in Swindon, 1pm forecast update still shows sunny right through the day and no rain. Message on website it for fans to get to the stadium early as a larger than normal crowd is expected as those going to Somerset or Cardiff may also be visiting to see Swindon - Poole, always a good meeting.

Always love the "get their early" especially when they usually delay the start of the meeting anyway to allow for those who don't do it.

Adder Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 The 'get there early' thing is a load of cobblers. The turnstiles don't open until 6.30 so anyone getting there early will just be queuing in the car park anyway. Better to have a couple of cold ones sat outside the Cold Harbour before wandering across about 7. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heathen chemistry Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 reading the press releases today.... poole saying the draft system needs some changes hmmmm......sounds like they still not happy with it yet they virtually claimed kyle newman as there draft rider before choosing began but there still not happy , maybe because there not 20 points clear at the top of the league.... some promoters can be so hypocritical sometimes , i can guarantee you this if poole had 2 top reserves instead of one they would be totally happy about the draft system and wouldnt be releassing statement about changing it ! there are teams that didnt get a pick like poole did with newman , theyve just got on with it . in closing i would like to hope that the hypocrits dont outweigh the promoters who have the longterm future of the british riders in mind long term plan are the key words here , not short term league winning signings that some clubs prefer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 Haven't seen these reports but it would be no surprise seeing as Ford thought he was going to get Brady Kurtz in at number seven to go with Newman while most other teams had to feed on scraps. Smart, Hopwood & Johnson must be a come down after what the dark lord thought he'd be able to engineer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All clubs had the right/choice to claim their assets as part of the Fast Track draft. Matt Ford's words from last week were meant to 'gee up' the reserves' performances or risk being replaced - seems to have worked wonders if last night is anything to go by!! It seems that any FT rider who appears on the list with a # by their name is down to their own choice, due to maybe having to work or other difficulty with being a full time Fast track rider. It seems the longer the season goes on that this may change with some riders!!!? Middlo's dog had another nibble then ? Prearranged holiday, with no home fixture next week and no Team GB responsibilities this year for Cardiff!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy robin Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 (edited) Looks like it could be another home defeat for the Robins then with Steve's bad luck & Nathan's ability to fall off nearly every race!!!!!

Crazy robin Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 Track is crap Not going to argue with that but coming from a Poole fan that is some irony:-) When a rider keeps falling off like Nathan when he is in front of a rider does really leave him in the lap of the gods of another rider hitting him. That is where this draft rule is daft as it could lead to the lad being seriously injured as he just isn't ready yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy robin Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 (edited) All Nathan had to do was stay on his bike & beat Brendan in the reserve races & he couldn't manage that!!!. Harsh I know but how can a rider be in the top league when he can't stay upright. Edited July 10, 2014 by Crazy robin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
