Bandits V Witches. 8th July


Recommended Posts

A sad reflection of how low the Bandits support is now.

They used to say "use it or lose it", it seems it's all but lost

All but lost because people are fed up watching defeat week after week... It ain't fun when you don't enjoy parting with your 15 quid anymore .. I'm not there because I'm currently in Herts preparing for my house move but it's painful reading the scores coming through! In comparison to feeling so low about my own team I've had the chance to watch a wonderful SWC meeting on TV which reminds me why I love this sport!

Hard to know what to do apart from bring in a couple of new signings now! At least try and win us some home meetings! The Joe Jacobs signing has not worked at all!

Take it you haven't seen the latest score then

No wonder people didn't want to go, World cup final on tele and our team is pure pish

Mind the World Cup was hardly a classic

Well we won't be getting 4 points now. Another classic witches collapse going on in Berwick

Wow just got the away win in last race.

 

So is that a good three points or a throw away of 4 points considering who we were against and the lead we had?

Probably both considering the big lead and then being 2 down going in to final heat.

 

Got to say well done to Berwick though to fight back brilliantly against all the odds!

Hopefully CL has mowed the lawn and got the mallets ready.

MUST DO BETTER!!!

Berwick were not even at their strongest tonight either

 

What is it with the end of meetings for us?

Don't know why riding order was changed for this meeting, only those that changed it will know why, but it obviously didn't work

Sometimes I think team managers change things to justify their existence. If they don't change the riding order then all they have to do is switch the odd reserve and pick the obvious riders for heat 15. Unless they actually can motivate somebody to get out of the gate quicker and make their bikes go faster, and I think we all know no manager has ever done that.

I seen them coming through but always felt our inability to win meetings would come back and bite us!

I'm taking no joy from this at all... I want to get back to enjoying seeing my team actually win! The racing/entertainment is sorted it seems so that is something.

I want so badly to be the fan who would travel hundreds of miles for away meetings and never dare of missing a home meeting...

I will keep going when I can in hope something does come good! I did in 2007 when we won literally 3 meetings and I'll do so now... On the plus side, there is only one way we can go should we be lining up at the tapes next season :approve:
