weatherwatcher Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 It is a well known fact that the track prep is taken out of the clubs hands, when Sky are in town. It was actually stated so on the Coventry meeting that cause such a stir on here a few meetings ago. Why do they have the rights to dictate to a club how they want the track prepared. Surely it is up to the track guy to have the choice not Sky. Is there any news on Josh Autry, on when he hopes to come back or are they planning to get another rider to cover the rest of the season, because if is true what has been said about him then he will only have a couple or so meeting at the end of the season when he is fit again. Are there also any plans to get another rider for Walasek as he will be out until the end of the year now I should think. Hope that Swindow dispose of Zengota, have been really pleased with what I have seen from him this year. Folks go on about pants meetings at BP but watch Lynne last night, there was only one heat that was worth watching and that was the last one, that said though, there was some good team riding for a change. What I hate to see is when the leading rider sails off into the sunset and he dosen't give a sod about his mate, Iverson did all his team mates proud last night, helping them to get the win and get get the points they needed, still hate the double points as Lynne won that meeting by 4 points not the one they got in the end, it is time they put the double points to bed once and for all. Such an unfair idea, why should a losing team get a chance to score double points just because they are 10 points adrift, They should just let the meetings run their corse, no double points.

Most likely guests for Grzegorz until he returns (as the team manager stated in the Star). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To team ride, you need a suitably designed track to do it on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope they don't dispose of Greg, Swindon's second best rider this year and in top 20 EL averages. Despite what some people believe the track is not always prepared for Sky, at least not at Wiltshire's Abbey Stadium anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you watch Kings Lynn versus Poole the other night. 2 home riders in interview both said that the track was completely different tonight. Why would that be then?

Why would that be then? Middlo said buster moaned the track was different due to sky being there as well. Implied Advantage Poole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwatcher Posted July 6, 2015 Report Share Posted July 6, 2015 It will be great to see Josh return we have lost so many riders though injury this year plus others doing a disapearing act on us. Poor old Grzegorz has really been through the wars this year in Poland, it is time his luck turned around, If Swindon are so stupid tio get rid of their best riders to make make for Little boy Blue eyes then Rosco needs his head looking at. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you read the post properly I said The Abbey Stadium, Swindon...cant talk for other tracks, and I don't have Sky so didn't see KL-Poole match Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
