Crazy robin Posted February 14, 2016 Report Share Posted February 14, 2016 Yeh and you had plenty of time to ask Dak, but clearly you bottled through fear of being made look stupid. He could ask you for advice as you're an expert. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orion Posted February 14, 2016 Report Share Posted February 14, 2016 Yeh and you had plenty of time to ask Dak, but clearly you bottled through fear of being made look stupid. There is no need to ask ..he stay in England played golf went down the pub and rode in a speedway final ....he had already give us the answer . Just like Matt Ford little point in getting answers to someone you don't believe in anyhow . 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woz01 Posted February 14, 2016 Report Share Posted February 14, 2016 (edited) And ? all it means is the reason North has given to Swindon ...that does it is is gospel or the whole story ....how naïve speedway fans can be sometimes it's unreal ...So why exactly do you think he's not coming over? He'd have already sorted equipment for the season ahead.Or as was described at the time as life changing.The reason Dak is staying behind isn't because of the original injury. He had contracts sorted in Europe but his dad then suffered another injury (maybe his previous injury didn't help) so he's staying behind. He wouldn't stay behind unless he felt he needed to as he would certainly have equipment sorted already.

stevebrum Posted February 14, 2016 Report Share Posted February 14, 2016 So why exactly do you think he's not coming over? He'd have already sorted equipment for the season ahead.

He wouldn't stay behind unless he felt he needed to as he would certainly have equipment sorted already. It's possible the severity of the original injury contributed to the further setback of the fall. If it's serious enough for Dak to stay at home then that's good enough for me. Like I said pages back, good luck to him in whatever he now chooses to do. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BurntFaceMan Posted February 14, 2016 Report Share Posted February 14, 2016 I hope Dak and his father are ok. I am pleased that the 2015 victory is no longer tarnished by false allegations. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Game On Posted February 14, 2016 Report Share Posted February 14, 2016 It's possible the severity of the original injury contributed to the further setback of the fall. If that was the case he shouldn't of been allowed to return to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T.N.T. Posted February 14, 2016 Report Share Posted February 14, 2016 So when are Swindon going to name RIcky Wells as the replacement ? Seriously though he is a vastly underated rider and like Dakota he has a 5.91 average and rode most of those meetings as a heat leader for Wolverhampton. Maybe his away form isn't what it should be but he is still a young man despite his experience and is more than capable of holding down an Elite League berth. Vaclav Milik or Mikkel Michelsen could be good singings but RIcky is based here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hagonshocker Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 Would like to see either Ryan Douglas or Todd Kurtz if not Rohan. Douglas and Todd would barely hit a 4 average EL..no disrespect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreverblue Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 Could have Kasper Gomolski, i thought he did extremely well last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnglishRoundabout Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 Could have Kasper Gomolski, i thought he did extremely well last season. Well he did OK in patches.... Fortunately for the Pirates he finished the season strongly. Had he continued with his form leading up to the play offs, there would have been plenty calling for his head!

Crazy robin Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 Guess all will depend whether Swindon want a rider already riding & based in Britain like Tungate or a foreign rider who will incur travel costs extra. Michelsen must be an option as he flies round The Abbey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tungate has gone backwards in the PL the last 2 seasons. Wells a much better option out the 2 IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jd72 Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 I was lucky enough to go to watch last two rounds of Aussie champs (and meet Phil crump) this year and tungate was flying improving all the time would be a good signing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theblueboy Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 Nothing personal against Tungate but it's a move that has taken Swindon from play off certainties to also rans. He will need to get dialled in at home v.quickly. They may well qualify for the Play Offs but there is a lot of pressure now on Morris and 'his mate' to score highly both home and away but given their inconsistencies this will be above them. Wells would, for me, have been a better signing and added some depth to the team with his EL experience. Overall, for me a disappointing signing and I hope he and the team prove me wrong. Too close to call with regards the play offs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
