thecoombdog Posted October 8, 2014 Report Share Posted October 8, 2014 even if Nathan Greaves had put in one of his best performances of the season he still wouldn't have scored more than a point or two and Swindon would still have lost. It's not his fault he was the fourth choice for the no 7 slot. No one is blaming him. He scored what I expected him to. He just shouldnt give up after 2 laps every race.

TesarRacing Posted October 8, 2014 Report Share Posted October 8, 2014 One last thing regarding Nathan Greaves. Ive only seen Swindon ride on sky this season so maybe doing him an injustice, but he falls off a heck of a lot and when he doesnt he looks like he is out of control or about to fall off. Dont get me wrong i admire any of these guys who do the sport we love and risk injury to do it, but he doesnt seem to sit right on the bike and seems to be out of his depth. Yes, but he is a force to to reckoned with on the terraces though!! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonHWeiner Posted October 8, 2014 Report Share Posted October 8, 2014 (edited) What were you doing at 16? Oh yes, and who are the 'plenty' giving their all at that age? I remember when Nick Morris was 16 and a Coventry reserve. He beat Nicky Pedersen and you can guess the reaction of the "Pantomime Villain"!

Has he really kicked on as much as we thought though & has gone missing in both of the play offs the last 2 seasons. The likes of Brady Kurtz & Max Fricke seem to do it when it really matters. Harsh I know but that is the reality at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, not Leigh Adams. Leigh was retired then. It was Scott NIcholls our number one in that Ill fated season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnglishRoundabout Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 Monberg didn't! Thinking back what a dire team that was. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve0 Posted October 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 Monberg didn't! Thinking back what a dire team that was. The stroke of genius was having Tomasz Chrzanowski in the starting line-up - NOT!! It was obvious to everyone except Ronnie Russell that he was sinking faster than the Titanic (after his brief spell for BV the previous year where he struggled to score any points). The one shining light was Klindt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnglishRoundabout Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 I'd forgotten about Chrzanowski actually. He looked so good in 2006/2007 but as you say, a poor signing at the stage of his career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
