“We are currently top of the league so why would we consider changes?

Because we learnt in the last few weeks that Poole are better over two legs and thats all that matters now. We're as good as in the play-offs so now we have to start building to win the play-offs. That may mean keeping the same 1-7 but obviously may mean a change of tactic to make sure we can beat Poole over two legs.

COVENTRY Speedway wish to quash speculation that Darcy Ward could be heading to Brandon next month.

The Australian stars suspension expires at the end of June and he has been linked with several Elite League teams should he not be required by parent club Poole.

However, he will not be joining the Buildbase Bees, and moreover this has never been an option considered by the management with their 2015 team having been at or near the top of the Elite League table throughout the season.

Promoter Mick Horton said: Coventry Speedway have never been interested in signing Darcy Ward.

As much as I rate Darcy as a rider, him joining Coventry would never be an option and to be honest Darcy probably feels the same.

We are currently top of the league so why would we consider changes? Our team spirit is the best in the league, as we saw again at Belle Vue on Monday.

Fridays return match against the Aces will be just as tough as last night, and we need to hit the ground running.

Think we are missing a trick here by not improving the 2nd string. This is where Poole are ruthless and the rest are not.

Total lack of forward thinking

I agree. There are options out there I'm sure, other sides are looking to improve so should we. Although I think we'd have a chance against anybody in the playoffs we would not be favourites as things stand.

If I was the promoter at Coventry or Swindon or for that matter any team expecting to be in the play-offs the last thing I would do would be to take a Poole Agent(rider) on loan. Cov need to use the points available to strengthen the team or once again they will lose out. The other teams will certainly do their utmost to strengthen for the play-offs.

Well in fairness the Bees are not going to say" Robbo has been mainly crap this year and if we get a chance to change next week we will !"

Theyre not, quite right. Robbo has to ride a few more meetings yet. But Mick asked a question, I answered it.

Understand what you're saying but there are few options for a top man who are not Poole assets( Ward, Pawlicki, Lindback, Kasperzak).

Przemyslaw Pawlicki is a Coventry asset

See below!

 

What I do find amusing though, people actually believed the hype and sh!ite from posts here about Ward coming to the Bees :D You've also spoilt some fun posting that so soon Neil! ;)

Love them or hate them, it's the play offs that matter! We'll be found wanting, if something happens to one of our lynch pins like Garrity and Hans decides to go on holiday again :rolleyes:
