Always a chance of him popping out for a 5-1 but guess the fans who went will have a better idea why not.

theblueboy Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 (edited) Or that he rode like a wobbler. I don’t like to be scathing of Robins riders but the facts are there for themselves.5 rides, no wins and one second place. Not the score you would expect of a former World Champion riding in a watered down league. Didn’t deserve to be in 15, GP week or not.

Sidney the robin Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 (edited) We come up short again away from home but we had some bad luck tonight but that is all part and parcel of speedway i suppose.Well done to Lynn tonight it was a great win for them keeps them right in the mix.Swindon i am getting concerned now we seem to put one step forward then one step back but we can't give up though keep on going keep on trying you cant ask any more than that.

Think the strange decision was not putting Kerr in ht8 instead of Lambert. That Riss pass on Jensen was sqeaky bum time. Hope S.Nielsen is just battered and bruised and will be back soon.That guy deserves a bit of luck doesn't he. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bald Bloke Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 Much needed points. Decent from Riss, TJ and MPT. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KLFAN Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 Just wondering if we might go for Ricky Wells as a replacement for Simon Lambert? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gresham78 Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 Given that the Robins were 15 pts adrift after 8 heats and had lost a rider this ended a lot closer than it could have done and had Razza not made a mistake whilst out in front in heat 12 we might even have nicked a point. Well done to Razza, Frenchie and Batch plus a special mention for Ellis Perks who rode his nuts off to no avail. Not sure what's wrong with Doyley - another indifferent performance - looks right off his game at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrss Posted July 2, 2019 Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 Good result for the Stars. Another poor spectacle with not much good racing. Only incidents to remember are Stefans awful smash ,Doyle wiping Riss out, and Riss barging past Jensen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted July 2, 2019 Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 It wasn’t a great spectacle but heats 13 and 14 were pretty good too. Far too much FTG though as per. Nice to catch up with several people I hadn’t seen for a while! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Riss and Jorgensen team riding Doyle out and the re-run with Riss passing Batchelor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecoombdog Posted July 2, 2019 Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 Nothing is going our way this season but we have also been a little bit sh1te as well. Can't see us making the play offs which is ridicoulous with our top 5. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted July 2, 2019 Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 You’d have to say that Ipswich and Poole look home and hosed so it could be an absolute dogfight between the other five for two play off spots. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
