GoFastTurnLeft Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 Janowski riding in Poland so hope he is ok for tomorrow. Matt Ford said don't be surprised if he rides for Wroclaw but still misses out on Monday. He reckons the Polish teams push their riders more and this is a 'must-win' fixture for Wroclaw. (Funnily I was speaking to a Wroclaw fan who said the opposite, both teams are already in the playoffs so the match tomorrow isn't that crucial) If Magic's ok, I'm all for them running it tomorrow. There's a big difference between 'running scared' and respecting your opponent. With both teams at full-strength It'll be a good one. I somehow doubt the Robins fans would be so confident if Ward were the one injured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not - with his average, Swindon would be able to cherry pick a replacement! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoFastTurnLeft Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 Why not - with his average, Swindon would be able to cherry pick a replacement! Magic has the highest average in the league. Averages aren't the problem. Availability of reserves is. Everyone except Lakeside and Coventry are riding tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoFastTurnLeft Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 Think we will be without Magic as he missed his last ride today. I thought he finished 3rd? Or was he supposed to be doing heat 15 as well? I only have Twitter updates to rely on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 Magic was instructed to ride today - scoring 6 points from 5 rides. Wroclaw lost by 2 points but still qualified for the play-offs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He reckons the Polish teams push their riders more They do. They got last weeks one spot on ..I expect a early call off anyhow as Magic is missing ..yet more cheating from the Poole Dear me whatever your drinking out of your taps i don't want any. You state the forcasters got it right last week, they did, eventually. But because Magic is Injured, although because the Dumb Polish authorities forcing their riders to ride because they have some sort of hold over them, and yet the forcast for tomorrow is the same if not worse than last Wednesday you call us cheats.. Clearly you don't watch TV. Signal that bad in Swindon, Pop round to dear old uncle Rosco's, he might tell you.. Or not..

I know I've had nothing to do with what's happened to Darcy, but can't help feeling bad that I've just jinxed one of my favourite riders! Hope it's nothing too serious, but back and neck pain is no joke... EDIT: According to Jack Holder on Twitter he has a broken shoulder and wrist! Get well soon Darcy!
