Swindon 2015

Nobody is saying he's injured! Still carrying an injury maybe, but he's quit or 'left by mutual consent'. Either way Swindon have a 28-day minimum facility to use a guest until DW has sorted his UK visa.

 

They had to get AM to agree to ride at Leicester so that his 8.21 average would appear again in the 1-7!!

looks like a lot of under handed stuff going on In speedway at the moment no wonder the fans are giving it a miss

What makes it underhanded? Makes no difference at all if replacing 2 riders as is being suggested as have to re-build back to 34

why did they have to get him to ride at Liecester then when every body could see he didn't want to be there something to do with averages ?

Howarth will be the one to go now. Heat 15 was his fair well ride to Swindon in my opinion.

Howarth will go now. Kyle was given Heat 15 in appreciation from the Swindon management in my opinion

I have to agree. Shame as I don't believe Ward will show the same commitment Howarth does to Swindon esp against a certain team. It will also mean bringing in a lower averaged 2nd string

I'm sure it would be long though before another team snaps him up.

I think Batchelor had been very lucky here as he has been Swindon's weak link on a number of occasions.

 

Either way, I don't envy Rosco having to make the decision

We'll be weaker if Ward comes in. We're stronger with the current side and a decent guest.

 

Can't rely on guests all year though, but I still reckon we should hang on to the Blunsdon 4.

I just hope if Swindon bring in Ward it's Batchelor to go, he has been consistently inconsistent for years and always bottles it when the pressure races come.

Zengi & Howarth have been excellent this year and both deserve to keep their place.

I would rather a straight swap at 1 if we could persuade someone and let Ward go elsewhere, but from a business point of view he will put bums on seats, so I await the announcement with trepidation😕

When are they meant to announce anything?

If Darcy Ward gets a visa presumably.
