Skidder1 Posted September 27, 2018 Report Share Posted September 27, 2018 In the longer Terry Russell article in the Speedway Star he says that much of the new speedway track work should be done in October and November. The dog track will also be changed and Gaming International will be trying to do that work in between greyhound race days over the winter.

hyabb17 Posted September 28, 2018 Report Share Posted September 28, 2018 I would not have Batch back unless he's at 5 with Doyle at 1. Terry Russell with some interesting comments in his programme notes, said that the top two leagues are too close in class which isn't right, Said that the top league needs to be just that (or words to those effects). Said the product can't be weakened any further. I'd like the following team if 42.5 Doyle - 9.54 Howarth (now living locally) - 5.16 Ellis - 6.49 Musielak - 6.65 An Other - 6.66 Watjknecht - 4.33 Nielsen = 3.67 or if they decide to use an NL rider at 7 (u21) which I don't have an issue with as that bring the boys along. Brennan - 2.0 Killer - 7.1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dump that clutch Posted September 28, 2018 Report Share Posted September 28, 2018 one thing for sure, they need to change the music and turn it down, too bloody loud, you cannot hear the person stood next to you under the main stand.

Ovalman Posted September 28, 2018 Report Share Posted September 28, 2018 (edited) Would have Muesli and Zach back. Morra needs a change, Wolves perhaps, Adam perhaps would do better at Lynn. Doyle won't come back to Swindon Edited September 28, 2018 by auntie doris 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Weasel Posted September 28, 2018 Report Share Posted September 28, 2018 I doubt we can afford this but why not it's fantasy season... J Holder 7.39 C Holder 7.16 PK 7.10 Muesli 6.65 Michelson 5.67 Zak 4.33 Berge 4.00 42.30 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve0 Posted September 28, 2018 Report Share Posted September 28, 2018 The first 3 names I would have in the team are Ellis, Alpen and Zach (not even going to try to spell his surname). I wouldn’t have any others of this year’s team though. I like the look of hyabb17’s team above too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brennan - 2.0 Killer - 7.1 So, the two leagues are too close in class?... Well, considering they invariably use the same bloody riders I have to say I am not too shocked..... Next week, a Speedway Promoter will put in his programme notes that bears do actually defecate in the woods..

Greg Posted September 30, 2018 Report Share Posted September 30, 2018 I thought Ellis was doing good for you guys there was alot of talk at Lynn V Swindon that Nick Morris was in talk with Wovles for next year but hay it could just be a rumour as always .

A ORLOV Posted September 30, 2018 Report Share Posted September 30, 2018 Until the new league formats and the management seeing if the bspa come up with a reduced team average limit again, rather than allow riders to improve their averages I would imagine the management have an idea of who they want in the team and will have one or a few team lineups in mind.

Reduce the averages again and we will end up with more riders struggling to find a team place 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noggin Posted October 13, 2018 Report Share Posted October 13, 2018 Hopefully we are back for tapes up, the only riders I'd retain are Zach, Adam, Tobi and Nick??, points limit and any silly only one over 7.5 rules need knowing before thinking about a #1 , no way can we keep diluting the product.

Aces51 Posted October 13, 2018 Report Share Posted October 13, 2018 I just hope that Swindon are running next year. I have many happy memories of trips to Blunsdon dating back to the Briggo days and hopefully will be there again next year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie17 Posted October 15, 2018 Report Share Posted October 15, 2018 So they could knock the stands down but build the new track? Nobody seems to know the timescale or timetable? Sounds like a total fudge to me. Time to be worried if you ask me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
