Bees_Man Posted August 11, 2015 Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 Poor decision to not strengthen when points available. Swindon, Poole final now for me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSmiler Posted August 11, 2015 Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 Think we will fall short at the final hurdle. Time will tell with our three matches versus Swindon (who I think will win all 3). Poole and Swindon are stronger. We have had a lot of luck this season... Yes Coventry are a good team and deserve to be top, but we are no where near as strong and will probably pull a Kings Lynn of last year. Big shame as we are one step away from title favourites, and the fact we are top and can still strengthen yet won't leaves very little ambition shown. I sincerely hope Im wrong... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woz01 Posted August 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 I'm not convinced Swindon are stronger to be honest. They've only beaten sides they shouldve done. That being said I'd be much more comfortable with a Michelsen or Buszkowski at number 2 going into the playoffs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bees_Man Posted August 11, 2015 Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 I think Swindons top five is stronger by miles However we do have Garrity. If for whatever reason he has a poor meeting in the playoffs we're stuffed as without him we're a midtable outfit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rosco's Robins will win on thurs and win at least one meeting at Coventry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bees_Man Posted August 11, 2015 Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 I do believe they'll win all three without a change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CB252 Posted August 11, 2015 Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 Yep Swindon will batter us. They have four heat leaders and we have one and a half. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bee 26 Posted August 11, 2015 Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 So who are we signing in time for Friday Probably Summers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted August 11, 2015 Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 Why are we using Summers a 7.2 PL rider when Hans could have a ride and Garrity an 8+ rider 3 rides. Or even sign a 6.5 rider. Pathetic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bees_Man Posted August 11, 2015 Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 Lack of ambition, and way to easy to keep ringing up summers. God knows why either! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pathetic. When you put it like that I have no idea why? Just so frustrating at times. At times its comes across as pure money related as Andersen having extra rides is an expensive option. Stinks of lacking that killer instinct to win when just making play offs will do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecoombdog Posted August 11, 2015 Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 A couple of defeats to Swindon over the next week or so could be the best results of your season as it will surely force a change. I'm not convinced Swindon are stronger to be honest. They've only beaten sides they shouldve done. That being said I'd be much more comfortable with a Michelsen or Buszkowski at number 2 going into the playoffs. I agree 100% with that. We have only beaten gash teams away. Plenty of hammerings have been dished out to us so we have a lot to prove over the next couple of weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pathetic. Exactly what I said on my twitter feed. Doesn't make sense to me. Summers seems in better form the last few weeks but still will be a tough ask for him.

Plenty of hammerings have been dished out to us so we have a lot to prove over the next couple of weeks. Its bizarre that some Bees fans continually have a doom or gloom mentality, it's happened most of the season despite us being top for most of it. Do I think we will win the playoffs without a change? Doubtful. Do I think we can beat Swindon at home? Absolutely. A couple of defeats to Swindon over the next week or so could be the best results of your season as it will surely force a change.

Can't dispute that logic however, to defend the promotion, MJJ was signed last year and it all went horribly wrong so I can understand why there may be some reticence to bring in a new rider.

Bring a 6.5 rider in and if he's missing we can bring a guest in upto 6.5. It's far better than the situation we are finding ourselves in. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ouch Posted August 12, 2015 Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 Sign a rider who won't ride for you then when he doesn't ride for whatever reason just get a guest. That would never happen, surely? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
