A ORLOV Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 We need our heat leaders to step up, King and Korpie slowly going off the boil at the wrong time of the season. We would be bottom half of the table if it wasn't for Garrity. Any news on Robbo's scan, doesn't take this long for the results surely! The point is though, despite how good Garrity was, a team cannot rely on one rider, especially a reserve. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless Robbo had it done privately he could be in for a wait for the results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
From PC to KC. Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 The point is though, despite how good Garrity was, a team cannot rely on one rider, especially a reserve. You can't win the league/ playoffs without one star reserve, it has always been thus, look back down the recent years, Newman for Poole, Pawlicki for Coventry, Grajczonek for Poole, Lindback for Poole,, Dryml for Oxford, Ravn/Jan o Pedersen for Cradley, Svab for Ipswich etc etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanr1 Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 To be honest Garrity (& Sarj to a lesser degree) is the only reason we've been anywhere near the play offs in the last 2 years, if we'd been as unlucky in the draft as say Leicester or Belle Vue then we would have been wooden spoon contenders again as we were in 2013. Hopefully we can pull a signing out of the bag to make us competitive in the play offs, and get Garrity and King fit again. Our promotion doesn't have a great track record though, sticking with the dreadful Hansen all last season, getting rid of MJJ, signing Jamrog, and not replacing Robbo, they make some strange decisions that's for sure. I think Barker or Howarth is the best we can hope for. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Smith Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 Coventry fans need to wake up and smell the coffee, and fast. This is starting to look like the management are intent on taking as much cash as possible knowing the stadium is to close it's doors very soon with no new home. Then they'll be looking for another club in the mire "to save". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fans will be pleased he is back for the Bees when they have been screaming for a replacement (using the spare points available) to strengthen the team. No more cherry picking - unless it's for Garrity. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmc82 Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 Mathematically could Cov end up out of the playoff positions ? They only need 1 point from their remaining 4 fixtures to be mathematically safe, unless Belle Vue don't get the maximum points available to them and then bees won't need to get any.

Bees_Man Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 Well they're not going to get anything against Swindon, full team or not. Unless a couple of changes it's hardly worth it apart from the one extra home meeting in the semi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

double_O Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 Oh god So glad to see you are so concerned about Robbo`s health. By your reaction it is obvious you are gutted he has been given the all clear - pathetic 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No more cherry picking - unless it's for Garrity. Maybe it will appear on the website after completion of today's Storm meeting It is important that news on this afternoon's fixture remains at the top of the website After the meeting is completed, and reported on, then news on Stuart Robson will probably be posted to the website Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
