Swindon 2016 - A New Era Starts...we Thought..


Recommended Posts

I think PK riding for Somerset and Swindon needing replacements for Rohan & Charles more than just balances the teams up!

Had not seen that news anywhere, but this must be a disappointment for the Somerset fans.

How much he is getting paid is irrelevant surely. Because the match at Somerset is against Swindon - Doyle's team. It's not an open meeting.

If true that really is a rubbish way to start the season where no fans want to see bloody guests in meetings.

 

I was going down for the weekend but don't think I'll bother if Doyley ain't riding for HIS CLUB.😡

 

Be interesting to see how they try & fudge a reason for it as well.😡

And I see on KL's website that Nick Morris is named in the Polish team that night too.

 

Both should line up with Swindon at Somerset or the opener descends into farce.

They've said Nick is in a 10 man squad so guess he's not riding.

 

All in all a bad way to start the season with the fans of Swindon & Somerset treated like mushrooms.

Balance it up???....the sides are already fairly close...and why the obsession with Darryl?

Was unaware of PK riding for Somerset at the time of posting. Darryl is a Swindon asset and deserves all the rides he can get.

before a wheel has even turned, it's looking like we (Elite League) are bowing down to the Poles.... :mad::nono:

Neither is an Elite League meeting!! Morris is a member of the 10-man Wroclaw squad. Wroclaw will have to choose their 8-man team after an official practice on Thursday 17th. Its an 8-rider format over 16 heats at KL.

It doesn't matter IMHO!! If Doyley or Nicj Morris ride at KL on the same night Swindon is at Somerset then that is wrong - plain and simple!

Exactly!

And if Chapman has said it's ok it blows the myth that he is good news as BSPA chairman.

With Morris surely it depends which meeting was arranged first? If it was the one at Kings Lynn and Wroclaw want to use him then he has to ride for them. I do find it incredible that Doyle will ride at Kings Lynn though, surely he got permission from Rosco.

As said on the KL thread why would it depend on what meeting was arranged first - he is a contracted Swindon asset required by this team on that night. When did we give foreign teams priority to use our riders when in the UK? He has to ride for Swindon regardless of when the meetings were arranged.

As per Robins website both Jason and Nick will be riding at Somerset for the Robins. Also Hagon, Rosco is using Darryl in the Robins side, he must have read my post, he still needs one other rider.

As stated elsewhere and by others Killer is riding for Somerset, I wonder if he will be at p&p on thurs at Swindon.

Common sense (or according to poor old Buster) 'fan power has prevailed as we have 'recalled' Doyle into our line up that night..what a bloody nerve the so called supremo of speedway has whining about the possibility of Rosco bowing to 'fan pressure'..just shows he's yet another head of the BSPA that will feather is own bed first, mind you the fact we gave him permission in the first place p****s me off or was that merely the Chairman using his pulling power? Tell ya what Chapman you can stick your challenge meeting right up your rear end

Rather disagree there he must get into our side on merit...so far i am yet to be convinced but hopefully will one day be proven wrong but i think you deserve something if you earn it not sure he has yet (waits for pelters as it's not pc to criticise a local rider)

Will not criticise your comment but feel that as this is a challenge he can be given the opportunity to show what he can do, not sure if he is on the ftr list as a reserve, if yes we may need him for a meeting.
