keef robin Posted May 16, 2017 Report Share Posted May 16, 2017 (edited) First meeting at The Abbey for over a month, The Turbo Trio face Holder Batch and Lambert on Thursday. The Gap makes his debut. Hope weather will be ok...Will go 52-40 to the Rampant Robins, on good run 5 matches without defeat. Followed by tough trips to Manchester and Wolverhampton.

keef robin Posted May 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2017 (edited) The Robins home form not convincing so far, were getting hammered by Belle Vue with 3 heats to go then lost by 2, about level with Rye House then won it in last 3 heats, down against Poole with 3 to go but fought back to level 45 each. You know with Doyley, Morra, and Bellego in last 3 they are very strong. Looking for the other 4 to whack in some decent scores. Need a strong reserve.

Let's hope we actually now have a reserve who can win Heat 2 as Emil wasn't the answer. Without a strong reserve you will struggle to make the play offs let alone win it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A ORLOV Posted May 17, 2017 Report Share Posted May 17, 2017 Well today we did not get the deluge of rain that was forecast, just steady light rain all day, so with no more rain due overnight or tomorrow and the sunny intervals forecast for thurs we should get some speedway.

g13webb Posted May 18, 2017 Report Share Posted May 18, 2017 After having 2 meeting in 4 days, its now over a month since Swindon's last home match. This crazy planning schedule might be to the Stars advantage in that the Robins riders have forgotten where the track is Prediction: Stars to lose 48 - 42 ( HL=30pts; SS=8; RR= 4). ....... To get a point here tonight would be a massive plus.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidney the robin Posted May 18, 2017 Report Share Posted May 18, 2017 A really nice morning here, hopefully the weather will hold up we had alot of rain yesterday where i am about 3 miles from the track.Kings Lynn could be very dangerous tonight, Huckenbeck for me is the key along with the talented Lambert.Lambert has not always gone great at the Abbey so he needs to be on it and Batchelor who knows what version turns up tonight i think a Budgies win by about 8.

oldswindonsupporter Posted May 18, 2017 Report Share Posted May 18, 2017 After sunshine earlier, it is now raining in Reading, what's the situation at Blunsdon weather wise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keef robin Posted May 18, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2017 (edited) A lot of rain around, just driven from Heathrow to Blunsdon, riders and fans were driving in, don't think I will chance it...5.30. Hope there aren't many that have driven from Narfok. After sunshine earlier, it is now raining in Reading, what's the situation at Blunsdon weather wise? Heavier showers at Reading but it might be moving west oss Edited May 18, 2017 by beefy keefy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
