junior fan Posted February 27, 2016 Report Share Posted February 27, 2016 (edited) As a number 8? If that's what you mean i question if he is A.eligible or B.good enough to replace a rider in our 1-5? No I meant as the spare Fast track rider , watched him win the Gillman championship the other week and he looks a lot trimmer and he said he's feeling over his injuries and rode accordingly.

hagonshocker Posted February 29, 2016 Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 Spare reserve is a number 9 who will be a draft rider not yet picked to cover for the clubs draft riders should they be elsewhere. Ahhh i see...totally no idea at the moment with these rules regarding 'squads'! As a number 8? If that's what you mean i question if he is A.eligible or B.good enough to replace a rider in our 1-5? No I meant as the spare Fast track rider , watched him win the Gillman championship the other week and he looks a lot trimmer and he said he's feeling over his injuries and rode accordingly. Junior In that case then yes i totally agree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A ORLOV Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 Well it is March 1st and there is still no further news on the planning app for the new stadium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnieg Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 (edited) It's still plodding on. Supplementary applications on reserved matters (particularly drainage) were still being submitted as recently as two weeks ago. Consultation period has closed and reading responses doesn't look problematic. Now it is up to planning officers to assess the application. http://pa1.swindon.gov.uk/publicaccess/applicationDetails.do?activeTab=documents&keyVal=O0L5L7PTG2I00 Edited March 1, 2016 by arnieg 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet all our Aussies are looking forward to p&p and the start of the season, especially with the lovely weather we are having including the snow which is falling today. When are they going to start the season later. Edited March 2, 2016 by A ORLOV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gone have the days late 60's early 70's where you could vertually gurantee going straight to the end.

EnglishRoundabout Posted March 2, 2016 Report Share Posted March 2, 2016 I'm sure Blunsdon is a couple of degrees colder than anywhere else, so watching a meeting there in March is sometimes a test of one's resilience! Mind you, it can be similar there in July! I reckon on two meetings a season where you can wear T-shirt and shorts. The rest of the time it's jumpers and overcoats. I did see Shov at Blunsdon in open toed sandals once which caused a bit of a stir on the back straight! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the design of the new stadium, the housing, stadium stand and noise barrier should keep the westerly wind away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gone have the days late 60's early 70's where you could vertually gurantee going straight to the end. If Easter were to ever become a fixed date in early April, then an April - September League season for the EL is a reality. The league and play-offs are scheduled to be completed in September already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Rosco wants to balance the teams up a bit and put in someone like Darryl Ritchings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reliant Robin Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 Maybe Rosco wants to balance the teams up a bit and put in someone like Darryl Ritchings. I think PK riding for Somerset and Swindon needing replacements for Rohan & Charles more than just balances the teams up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
