g13webb Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 With Wolves riding on the crest of a wave at the moment, coupled with their massive home advantage, the Robins have a tremendous job to get anything out of their trip tonight. Of all their recent matches this without doubt is their hardest. No team would look forward going to Monmore at the moment. and can only see one outcome.....,, Unfortunately Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Looks like a comfy home win but Swindon have surprised us more than once already so would be daft to write them off completely. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidney the robin Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Looks like a comfy home win but Swindon have surprised us more than once already so would be daft to write them off completely.This Wolves side looks very formidable,even young Greaves chipping in with points in all leagues now and Riss/Schlien being astute signings to.With Swindon i really want them to do well awkward really but in the back of our minds most Budgie fans know there has to be changes.An easy home win a massive home advantage damage limitation for the Budgies.

ProudtobeaBrummie Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 (edited) Big home win here i am going for 55-38 i expect Doyle to take and be successful on the tactical ride. Im 8 miles from the track and the weather looks perfect for speedway. If Adam can recapture hes play off form it could be a bit tighter .. Gappmaier im assuming has seen little to nothing of monmore and i dont think zach has rode there either well he hasn't in the nl for Birmingham he may of guested but with Riss and the improved greaves at reserve i expect wolves to win the battle of the reserves.. Doyle i expect to get around 16 points (with t/r inc) with morris getting 6/7 the reserves 4/5 points leaves bellago and Ellis to get around 12 points between them .Has Bellago rode Monmore either ? So if im correct going to a red hot wolves when only 3 of your 6 riders have never seen the track before your well up against it . Swindon really will need Adam Ellis to step up tonight to keep this tight.. Whats your thoughts guys ?

stevebrum Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 I think it will be closer than most expect, I hope I'm wrong tho! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnglishRoundabout Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 First timers at Monmore do tend to struggle (didn't Freddie Lindgren take a while to get to grips with the tight turns?) Personally, I like the track. Always decent racing there. Looking at the Swindon line up, this looks a formidable task for the Robins to get anywhere near the in form Wolves.

Personally, I like the track. Always decent racing there. Looking at the Swindon line up, this looks a formidable task for the Robins to get anywhere near the in form Wolves. Indeed he did. At one stage he was going to give up and go to Poole. Thankfully he didn't and the rest, as they say, is history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aces51 Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 (edited) He was going to go to Belle Vue, Wolves wanted to do a straight swap with Simon Stead but the Aces said no. Perhaps not the best decision ever made. I bet Freddie still regrets it every time he visits the NSS and sees what could have been.😂😂 Edited May 22, 2017 by Aces51 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously Greaves scoring points. You wouldn't be saying that if was riding for the Robins. His season average based on this season is a point lower than the Budgies reserves.

Gresham78 Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Robins will be relying on Doyle Morris & Bellego again but it's difficult to see the others chipping in with much & that's no disrespect to our reserves. Zack is still learning his trade at this level & Dany G may well never have seen the track before let alone ride it. That leaves a lot of pressure on Ellis & I suspect he has enough of that already given his disappointing form so far. Really hope he can turn it around. Good luck Budgies, safe meeting for all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazysue Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Is there anyone going to this meeting who would be able to text updates to the Updates site? If so, could you please send me a private message which includes your mobile phone number. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluTiger Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Should be a comfy home win, but should be good to see the top two riders in the World currently going head to head in a British Lge meeting... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g13webb Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Seriously Greaves scoring points. You wouldn't be saying that if was riding for the Robins. His season average based on this season is a point lower than the Budgies reserves. When comparing Greaves with our reserve Josh Bailey, he is a seasoned rider of some repute. No doubt we would agree to a swap if your dislike is that much..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahh, I remember that now, but Poole were definitely sniffing around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triple.H. Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Ahh, I remember that now, but Poole were definitely sniffing around. Poole consider themselves the dogs test-icicles That's why they're always sniffing Though everyone should agree it's a very successful business model for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
