Swindon 2018


Recommended Posts

Only takes one of the top five to dip badly, and we'll struggle as the reserves are woefully weak, need to win Monday to get the good vibe back.

Crikey that is some drop from David & if he doesn’t turn it round quickly then Swindon will have to take advantage of his old average to make changes.

New averages already in place

Rolling and include 2017 now again too

That's not their green sheet averages, it's this season's league meetings. What is interesting is that for of those complaining about having Troy rather than Jason, Troy is outscoring Jason, as is Nick!

Commentator on WM said head injuries but conscious. Initially had trouble breathing. One of the other bikes hit him in upper back region. 

 

Swindon speedway Twitter saying suspected pelvic injury.

Immediate replacement being looked at for Mitchell Davey following his unfortunate crash at Birmingham tonight, that's the word from Robins boss Alun Rossiter.

Feel for Mitchell Davey, no one wants a rider to get injured in such a fashion. 

Can't help but feel after your edits you do .. Can't help feel you wanted to end your last sentence with a but .

Who gives a toss about replacements on a night like this ....

Sorry, I wasn’t trying to be disrespectful to Mitchel in any way shape or form, just copied a tweet I saw. Perhaps not the right thing to do & for that I apologise.

Described by the doctor on scene as a 'massive head injury'. Riders crying and the management in complete shock.

Let's hope it isn't as bad as feared for Davey. 

Thoughts are with Mitch and his family tho. It's not a night I can say I feel happy about being part of and one of the dreadful things staff have to witness up close.

I apologise too i might be over sensitive but honestly he's incident was horrific and if you was there thinking of replacements would be the last thing on your mind .. It was then followed by young jordan Jenkins leaving the track in a ambulance in a awful crash as well in heat 12.   Just a very unpleasant evening for speedway riders and fans .

I did read he was conscious which I hope is true. I hope he’s okay & not a bad as feared. Generally didn’t mean any harm or offence with my previous message, error on my part.

I wasn’t thinking of replacements, nor have I said on here he needed to be replaced. Sound so horrific & I hope he’s okay.

It took him a long while to regain consciousness and I'd assume he has more injuries than first suspected.
