Crazy robin Posted June 10, 2015 Report Share Posted June 10, 2015 Was a big talent before injuries but not saying we should sign him as that would leave us short. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve0 Posted June 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2015 (edited) Speedway on The interceptor (BBC1) - looks like Lakeside vs Swindon team colours Edited June 10, 2015 by Steve0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnglishRoundabout Posted June 10, 2015 Report Share Posted June 10, 2015 He's only 24 English... True, I suppose I expected a major season from him after his break through season at Peterborough when he looked like he was going to be a 9 point average man in the future. As you indicate Blu, he's still got time on his side. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A ORLOV Posted June 10, 2015 Report Share Posted June 10, 2015 Speedway on The interceptor (BBC1) - looks like Lakeside vs Swindon team colours Correct, vortex hammers signs and pit sign for Davey Watt and Robins jackets on opposition.

Chalkie Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 Bloody 'ell, just watched the speedway bit-that looked a bit scary, running out on the track while a race was in progress-I've only done that once (1981 British Final run-off race between Steve Bastable and John Loius!) I somehow think H&S wouldn't let you get away with it these days. Thought it was good to get an uninterrupted view of a fight in the pits! The bag they were fighting over appeared to bounce off a Lakeside reserve's back at one stage! Anyone any idea when this was filmed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grachan Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 Someone posted a picture of the Swindon Facebook group and said the riders were Dan Greenwood and Benji Compton. If so, that would make it this match from 2014: http://www.swindonrobins.co/news.php?extend.2181.1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DunRobin Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 How long can the saga with AM go on. Should we replace him & if so, who with? It may even be that the BSPA are not going to allow his re-declaration as the replacement on Thursday night is for Kildeman & not Adrian. If so we would only have 6.86 to play with. To replace Adrian, it might have to be a re-declaration with one of the 7 point riders going, bearing in mind the riders available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steven101 Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 Is that allowed because your have 3 riders over 7.00 then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy robin Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 Its Darcy or bust for the teams who want/need to make changes as no other riders want to ride in Britain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stratton Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 Tonight could be a banana skin for us,a very big ask for the Robins with the team we have out.Ward after June 28th could be the last spin of the dice for us, we know big decisions have to be made but if we don't i see the play/offs slipping away.

Grachan Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 Ward's average is too high. Bringing him in would mean too many changes. To be honest, I think we maybe need to forget about a number one rider. Move Nick to number one and bring in an exciting youngster. Don't know who, but there are no number ones. Better than guests in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said neither does Kasperzak😀 Edited June 18, 2015 by Crazy robin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better than guests in my opinion. That's not a bad idea. However, it's disappointing as it means that we would possibly give up on this year's title in preparation for next year. There are a few exciting youngsters around (e,g. Bartosz Zmarzlik etc) and they might be worth a punt - if they were interested. Bring back Justin Sedgmen (although he is going very well in the PL) Edited June 18, 2015 by Steve0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
