Bees not much better. What's the news on robbo?

Robbo is out for 3 weeks. Hoping we sign someone before the Swindon meeting if not go R/R and give Hans an extra ride. Same with Friday might aswell go R/R for Robbo unless Hans is missing too but I doubt he would be.

Lewis remains in Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge following his horrific crash in the Premier League Fours last weekend. Recent updates have thankfully offered encouragement, but there is still a very long journey ahead.

What are his injuries, do we know?

You will have to find room for Dave Jessup, and Anders Michanek in there somewhere :wink:

Just seen the forecast for Friday! Rain predicted pretty much all day by the met office.

 

I've just seen the local forecast for the SW... It's not looking good for Thursday at Swindon either!

 

Met office has severe warnings for Thursday and Friday..

Might be a scramble to get the fixtures in!

That team's the one which went through a complete season 1-7 unchanged. I don't think that record will ever be equalled!!

Cookie came along quite a few years after that.

Does anybody know when the official cut off date is for the play offs?

Yeah I know! He was just a great favourite of mine even though he never rode for a team I supported.

Must have been that fantastic guest meeting for Summers the other week that stuck in the mind - strange decision.

Swindon will walk it.

To be fair, Summers had been good at Brandon on his visit before guesting against us. He said the reason he struggled is cos he was ill.

Can't remember how Summers rides at Swindon but what other option were there on such a low average? Robson only scored 4 there last time against a weaker line up.

 

As for the home meeting I think the only winner is going to sadly be the rain looking at the forecasts.

Does anybody know when the official cut off date is before the play offs?

Regarding Thursday's weather....

 

What we have is a low pressure system moving up over parts of the UK, it's a very warm, muggy, damp low pressure and will bring with it a lot of rain, and electrical activity (thunderstorms) Now, the route this will take as it judders it's way up is a very fluidic scenario.....

50 miles more to the east and Kings Lynn will be off, but if it tracks the predicted path, Kings Lynn will be ok until around the early hours of Friday Morning.......

In my opinion.
