Woz01 Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 (edited) So what's the team news, both full strength apart from Fricke replacing Barker? Edited September 7, 2014 by woz01 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecoombdog Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 Swindon apparently cant be a called a "team" as such but our 7 riders should be our normal ones if Worrall is fit! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmc82 Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 (edited) Yes bees have Fricke replacing Barker in the heat leader position. Worrall has said he will be fit to ride tomorrow to Swindon at full strength Edited September 7, 2014 by peterpan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Taplin Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 (edited) Yes bees have Fricke replacing Barker in the heat leader position. Worrall has said he will be fit to ride tomorrow to Swindon at full strength Heard this aswel. Other then that it should be full teams. Carnt be doing with another farce of a meeting on sky. Please can we just get 15 good races on sky to show some new face to try and support the sport. And not hate on it.

Sienna Ryan Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 Looking forward to this one (Am trying to talk Mark into making the trip to see it live) Swindon have been very strong at home and not lost a meeting there since June, However Bees have the best away record in the league Hoping for a close safe meeting. I think both of these teams will make the play offs anyway. If Swindon win the meeting its not as much pressure to win at Belle Vue. If Coventry win then its another step towards finishing top. My prediction 46-44 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woz01 Posted September 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 Garrity v Worrall will be interesting to see but to be honest I'd take a losing point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecoombdog Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 If Coventry come and beat us or run us close then I will be very surprised. Our heat leaders are better and our 2nd strings are miles better than Howarth and Hansen. The only place they have an advantage is at reserve and even then Worrall is one of the only riders who can beat Garitty so not all bad. And before anyone says yes I know Coventry have already won at Swindon. But anyone who thinks that match has any relevance to tomorrow is clueless. Rain, injury and an out of form team cost us that night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orion Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 Fingers crossed that we are set fair for a good match thou the crowd going to be small with not only it being live on sky but also running on the same night as a England match . Sarjent and Garrity should give Worrall plenty to worry about but surely Swindon top five will tip the balance in Swindon's favour . With Eastie looking likely to get 4 points at Wolves tomorrow 2 points won't be good enough for Swindon they must take all 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2nd string positions could hurt us though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2nd string positions could hurt us though. yes agree that on paper there isn't much difference in strength of top 2. Coventry have a stronger reserve pairing whilst with Barker missing, Swindon are stronger in the middle order Swindon have home advantage however this is a track Hans & Howarth know well. Should be a good meeting and could come down to form on the night 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Champion2010 Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 must win meeting for Swindon with them only having 1 more meeting after this. Bomber had a late call to go to Poland 16 hour drive there and 16 hour drive back to for swindon tomorrow night 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woz01 Posted September 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 Can see Hans getting 8/9 and Bomber 5/6. Bomber hasn't scored that poorly for months and after an 18 point maximum he is the form rider in the EL at the moment. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacques Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 Bomber hasn't scored that poorly for months and after an 18 point maximum he is the form rider in the EL at the moment. I do think there is some serious underestimating of the Bees going on, on this thread. I expect we'll be putting in a better performance than some expect! It means a lot to both teams and I'm nervous about it already... It'll be close, I'm sure of it I'm not going to predict who will win though.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedybee Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 Will be a close call tomorrow ...can't help feeling that the engine room performance of both sides on the night will be the factor .. Morris / Gustafsson / North vs Howarth / Fricke / Hansen... On paper you'd surely have to fancy a Robins victory? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been best rider to watch. None of this from the gate nonsense like a lot of riders, true racer. Been scoring big for a while now both for bees and when guesting. At the end of the day I would be happy with a point from this meeting as we still have points to pick up against Eastbourne +2, Poole, Belle Vue (and Wolves if arranged in time) so not a must win for us unless we finish top. Swindon However only have one more meeting after this so they need not only this win but also all 3 points Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
