Steve Shovlar Posted July 19, 2018 Report Share Posted July 19, 2018 Due to DC2 camped in the Poole thread for the last couple of months gloating as we struggled for form, I take great delight in this 360 degree turnaround. Swindon plummeting out of the playoffs as Pirates start to show what real champions are made of. Allowing Somerset 4 points instead of 3 by not putting up a proper fight stinks. Poor show.

Steve0 Posted July 19, 2018 Report Share Posted July 19, 2018 No surprise with Bellego out and no adequate cover. Add to that Zach out and poor reserves. Well done Somerset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You sound like a child, haven’t we been told that the speedway season isn’t won in April, May, June, July before. I’ve every confidence that this blip will be turned around. Other than that perhaps we can sign 13 riders for one season....#jokers. Edited July 19, 2018 by hyabb17 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done Somerset. Doubt you would have won with Bellego. Would have just meant Doyle in heat 15. Your reserves are worse than any other club including most the the Championship.

I agree the two reserves were poor but that’s injuries for you and Smith is clearly not ready for the PL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonight they were dog plop but Zach put more than a point on his average and beat loads of good riders this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve0 Posted July 19, 2018 Report Share Posted July 19, 2018 You can just see SS has been waiting for this! At least there are reasons for Swindon getting beaten - injuries! Whereas Poole riders had no such excuse for earlier in the season. Anyway - it’s not going to change my life but has made SS very happy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
