Posf2 - Swindon V Coventry 6 October


Recommended Posts

I see on the Linksport site that comments have been made about the this meeting and that it may be a good idea to get the team some time on the track before monday.

If possible this would be a good idea but do not know how practical arranging it would be.

 

If all the riders ride to their ability we should be able to overturn the lead of 8 points but expecting the overall score to be close.

OK - Coventry lead by 8 points going into this second leg. We won't see a repeat of the last Blunsdon encounter score wise - it will be much closer but I think that Swindon will progress to the final.

 

C'mon you Robins!!

 

 

I think it depends which Coventry team turn up. If the Hans, Bomber and Hansen that ride to their ability turn up, then 8 points should be enough.

When it comes to Playoffs, I really don't agree with the use of tacticals, this is when they should be banned for all four teams imo. Hope they are not used next monday by any team including Swindon.

I agree and we are likely to use it on Monday. If we keep it below 8 then it will be because of using a tactical or 2.

I think that it is crazy at the best of times but in a 2 legged meeting! Surely the sensible thing if tacticals have to be used in the semi's, it should be based on the overall score. I can well remember Reading loosing the 2006 Final on tactical rides . Absolutely bonkers.

basically what you are saying is that we cant use tatticals until we are 20 points behind on the night, what you are saying is in effect we cant use tatticals,

this wouldnt sound so bad if before the monday meeting you stated that tatticals couldnt be used, now just because you havent used them all of a sudden its a issue.

 

its only eight points everyone from swindon have been saying how great your team is, then its shouldn't be a problem should it!

I've never agreed with tactical rides for the semi's or final as it's not fair that one team could use it and the other be denied the chance. The final result is decided over two legs so no tacticals should be involved. BUT saying that it's too late now and if the rules are to change it will have to be next season. Some Swindon fans seem to be getting a bit concerned but I don't really think the Robins have much to worry about. Good luck to both teams and may the best one win. Whoever it is will lose out to Poole anyway so I'm not getting stressed about the result. :lol:

Thanks mate. What happene to the the meeting if its called off. Im a cov fan and making the trip. But looks like the weather will play a big part in this

Same as usual. If 10 heats are run then we get a result. If less than 10 then it gets re-run again from scratch. Probably on the Wednesday.
