Woz01 Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 Well sky still have it on the schedule, so off to the pub it is. Even had Chris Holder on Sky Sports News today! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Bump Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 If Doyley has a bit of an off night, if Paddy scores well again, if Mr.Summers does well on his debut, if the reserves keep up their excellent form.....we may only lose by less than 12. Result! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Result! Â In fairness, Doyleys head and shoulders above everyone else. Our top 5 v there 2-5 is much of a muchness, and we're stronger at reserve. Should hopefully result in a close meeting (with Lions finally picking up league points!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A ORLOV Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 Leicester to win this by two points. I hope we can do slightly better than that but 1 away point is ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy robin Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 Away wins have happened already this season so if Swindon don't look at this as being a great chance then what will be?. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve0 Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 This is a must win for Swindon and the Lions are there for the taking. I think 4 EL points will be heading Blunsdon way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pirate Baz Posted April 13, 2016 Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 For Leciester meetings at Lynn and vs Lynn next Thursday and Saturday Paul Starke will be in the 1-5. Â Â Thought the Tier 2 rider remained at reserve all season, or is this another rule I've misunderstood? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikebv Posted April 13, 2016 Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 (edited) Thought the Tier 2 rider remained at reserve all season, or is this another rule I've misunderstood?I think that was the original interpretation from the initial announcement.... Tier one riders could swap I believe was the thought...  Looks like it has changed..  Mind you, it is only 08.35 as I type so maybe it will change again by the time match starts this evening....

A ORLOV Posted April 13, 2016 Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 (edited) Thought the Tier 2 rider remained at reserve all season, or is this another rule I've misunderstood? The bspa have cocked the rules up again and now that it seems that some of the FTR riders are better than the riders in the positions 1 - 5, in some cases both FTR riders for a club, so it will not be long before riders who started in the top 5 will be a reserve. It looks like D Watt for Poole will soon be a reserve, followed by Chris Holder if he carries on scoring like he is at the moment. Â More importantly the weather for tonight looks good with a bit of rain due about 3pm, COYR. Edited April 13, 2016 by A ORLOV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bear_Bottom Posted April 13, 2016 Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 Thought the Tier 2 rider remained at reserve all season, or is this another rule I've misunderstood? 17.5.1 Only one EDR (the one with the highest MA) may move into a Team’s top 1-5. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loudermilk Posted April 13, 2016 Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 Just a reminder to all TV speedway fans, since it is the first Sky transmission of 2016, that this meeting and all subsequent transmissions can be followed using a scorecard from http://www.speedwayscorecards.net/ Available now !

SteveLyric2 Posted April 13, 2016 Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 (edited) Apart from the fact that both reserves cannot be in the 1-5, (see post #34 above), I wouldn't mind a spell with Chris at reserve - if only for all the upset it would cause all other clubs' fans!! ;-) Â In Poole's case it is still likely to be Brady that drops to reserve, as Davey's rolling average will keep him higher initially I think when Poole complete their 2nd away meeting at Brandon next Friday 22nd, which will come into effect 7 days later.. Â Â PS. I've emailed the BSPA again this morning for clarification on the EDR rules. Edited April 13, 2016 by Skidder1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aces51 Posted April 13, 2016 Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 Holder has one bad meeting and suddenly he is going to be reserve! You didn't buy one of the BSF crystal balls then?

damosuzuki Posted April 13, 2016 Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 Well, the weather looks good. Will be great to finally see a sky meeting and hopefully they get a good turnout and it's a good advert for Speedway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
