Good man for paying the bet! We will sort one for the play offs mate!

Prefer the SRBF to have the cash than bet365 as is normally the case when I lose :D

 

Swindon 2-2 Coventry and we only lost two of them meetings through a farce, dodgy ref and a disgraceful track at Coventry a few weeks back.

How do you think the tracks going to be when you come back in 3 weeks time? :D

Hansen woeful as usual. I knew that Kenneth was a poor signing for you guys even before the season started. I posted on here that Kenneth would struggle.

Harris Just cant gate and you wont catch any of our riders around are place if you cant even make a half decent start.

I sat there watching it and thought, "Gater1 did say Hansen was rubbish" :D

As for Harris, he gated 2nd, 1st, 2nd and 3rd but ended 3rd, 3rd, 4th and 4th. It wasn't his gating tonight, I honestly can't remember the last time Bomber lost 6 positions after gating in a single meeting - before some smart arse says a GP, he's not gated well enough in a GP to do that!!

Yeah my theory on Bomber scoring badly was based on the fact he would be out trapped and not able to catch our boys. Good to see him being overtaken on the gate and go track!!!

Didnt really see any race tonight that got me off my seat ! Not taking anything away from the robbins who barring injuries look unstopable !

Oh yeah there was nothing spectacular by any means. But Batch and Dak passed Bomber. Few good 2nd bends too. Batch and Hans good race in 15. Think Cov were so poor it made it look easy and boring at times!

It's been notably quiet from the Poole massive for a while now. He wasn't everyones cup of tea, but I mss Shovvy, he was a wind up merchant and I found him funny and Starman is like he's had his head cut off..

 

Indeed Jacques..

 

Knobland is strangely very very quiet tonight..

 

Where is Skidder :wink: et al -,they are nowhere to be seen !

 

Is there a full moon in 'deepest darkest' where weird rituals take precedence :nono::D

 

As for Mr Shovlar - although he got a bit repetitive and predictable towards the end, prior to that he was mostly entertaining with his bigoted Pro-Poole posts...

 

As for the PO's - Swindon do seem to be running into a bit of form of late (assuming Eastie don't beat us to it)..

 

Long way to go yet though..

A good effort from the 'Gate and Go' Robins. Plenty to like about this evening's performance although the track 'seemed' wet and whoever led in to the bend won. :icon_smile_clown::P:oops:

 

Nice to see the Bees fans acknowledging the performance. It's never easy to accept a poor performance or that your team has been outridden. :t:

 

The Robins are hitting form at just the right time and confidence must be high. I just hope the team makes it to the starting line for the semi final. That is when the real work starts.

I found out the multi poster one the other week on FB yet people defended her. All her names on FB, twitter and on here connect and I can't believe people didn't find it earlier. As for the result oops!!!

I had no idea that KKS wasnt the only mulit poster!!! At least hes funny though. He amuses me greatly! This other bird is just an absolute nutter!!!!

Brilliant performance by the Robins, so much for the rubbish about a gate and go track. The two outstanding overtaking moves were by Simon and Dak in heat 6 and Nick and Troy in 15. As posted earlier I stated that our middle order would score more than the bees equivalent but did not expect Peter and Troy to beat Hans and Bomber by that many. Really pleased for Nick and Steve getting paid max.

 

All the robins rode well but feel sorry for Nathan who is trying but not having many results. Rosco he needs a day on the track before the playoffs.

 

Will have to go and watch a replay on Sky.

Well done to the Robins, they look strong all the way through and will take some stopping for the title. An excellent performance.

 

We have no chance of winning anything with Hansen in the side I'm afraid, since the home meeting against Lakeside he has scored 10 points in his last 5 meetings combined and is being beaten with ease by reserves. Worse than that is the manner of those defeats, Josh Bates left him for dead round Brandon and Max Clegg beat him by miles at Leicester having also led him for a couple of laps earlier in the meeting.

 

It's sad to watch, he looks totally out of his depth, I've never seen a rider suffer such a bad loss of form.

That's the longest It's taken me to watch a Sky meeting lately. With only Chris in the pits, the interviews were worth listening to, usually as soon as I spot Ms Webster my remote goes straight on X12. Thanks Sky, long may it continue.

Funny that my x30 got a flogging think i watched it in about 5 minutes.LOL

Fantastic performance words cant describe how good we were tonight.

 

Makes a difference when a track is prepared good doesn't it :D

? Nothing wrong with the track. The track was prepared beautifully for the riders.

 

Hans did have bike problems I admit

Howarth was awful the other week as well when guesting for Lakeside

Fricke a good performance in my opinion

Hansen woeful as usual. I knew that Kenneth was a poor signing for you guys even before the season started. I posted on here that Kenneth would struggle.

Harris Just cant gate and you wont catch any of our riders around are place if you cant even make a half decent start.

Garrity Just got out gated by Worrall in every Heat.

Sarjeant Just rolled at the start all night and that's why James got half a dozen points.

Howarth rode hard and was in the mix but it just was not his night Sarjeant rode very well i thought and as for Harris he actually gated made better starts than most nights.

In fairness to coventry they are better than what they showed tonight and flattered swindon, although the robins rode well rosco shouldnt read too much into this result. I hope swindon get to the play offs, they deserve it after the performances lately, particularly morris who is riding unbelievably well at the moment. Despite the scoreline I thought it was a entertaining meeting with some good passing moves, track looked good.
