Swindon 2015


Recommended Posts

I'm sorry, but it would be insanity to go so far down the draft list and replace a rider who is 8th (Rose) with a rider who is 24th (Ritchings).

 

We may a well pick and choose the best available replacement on a meeting by meeting basis as by the time Rose is fit again we'll know our playoff status.

Kyle Hughes NL average is much greater than most NL riders & he is a very experienced rider. Picking riders meeting by meeting can end up with struggling to get a replacement of any standard. Max Clegg is another option, only 1 below Rose & Rose is only carrying a 2.64 average in the EL this season, so not such a big risk.

Do any friendly Swindon fans have a spare 2015 badge that they would consider selling? I checked on the website and unfortunately they're out of stock.

 

When I was there for the Ben Fund the 2015 Swindon badges weren't in stock yet but I'm keen to get hold of one if possible, and there hasn't been one on eBay all season. If only I'd realised I could order one through the website earlier!

I know it is not speedway, but a list of eateries to think about giving a wide birth in Swindon

The burger bar on turn 1 & 2 IMO is the very WORST fast food i have EVER eaten, yep even worse than Peterborough, and thats saying something!!!

No surprises then..could probably add a few more to the list, which can be out-of-date due to changes in management/ownership etc.,. Should be compulsory for all businesses to display a rating so customers can avoid the squits!

I'd have to say that after 4 matches Krcmar doesn't appear to be an adequate replacement for Kyle. We probably have to win at Lakeside and Wolverhampton to have the slightest chance of making the play offs, as our other away matches are much tougher.

 

Maybe if we do get something from tomorrow's match against Lakeside, we should be looking for a replacement for him before the Wolves match on the 10th.

 

At the moment he's struggling to beat the opposing reserves and by signing him and Ward and dropping Kyle, the management have already adopted a "win at all cost" mentality, so I think that we need to be looking elsewhere.

Swindon should replace Krucmar with Busk-Jacobsen, Richie Worrall or Aaron Summers.

Worrall doesn't fit as he has an EL average. I'd be looking at getting one of the others in if I was Rosco. Krucmar should have been a safe signing but it looks like he's a dud, similar to Sitera a few years back for Coventry, just never lived up to the hype but somehow kept being brought back!
