This is what it's like when Starry and Steve Shovlar stop posting (sorry, post less). The Poole thread just gets hijacked by all and sundry. :o

Ah, so that's the reason.  I thought the standard of this topic had improved recently, but i hadn't worked out why.  :)

Those days have long we are now just another team :cheers:

Looking foward to the old rivalry with Poole though on April 4th, seen some great matches between the two over the years, always noisy, see no reason that won't continue.

Are you getting mixed up, Sid?

If Rowe will struggle in the 1-5 at Somerset, what chance has he got at Swindon?

Expand  

No not mixed up you often are though,you have no real time for youngsters you would rather a Wells/ Proctor type you just want to play the numbers game.The two leagues are two different disciplines something you dont quite understand  Rowe is an asset and he could be a longterm fixture in our team planning.His job is to be on the pace learn and hopefully pick a few points up at home away will be difficult but my point is rubbing shoulders with Doyley and co has to help and that should show in his Championship scores.Last year Anders had no right to do as well in the top five as he did he overachieved for me the Robins side having a good top end enables Anders to get his chance a chance you would never have given him.

That's what I was thinking?

The difference is Rowe will not be under any pressure at Swindon he is a longterm project and the club will support him.Also he is a lad who is ambitious being  in the top five in the Championship is hard and it is bloody annoying Cook gets a free card at reserve that rule has to change.

Hi, Sid. It’s a discussion. No need to attack someone who doesn’t fully agree with you. 

Earlier you appeared to agree that some young riders will suffer if promoted too early.

Rubbing shoulders with Swindon’s riders didn’t help Jack Smith much, did it!

Jack Smith is not good anough end of , he has had endless chances and what did he average in the NL last year.? Not attacking you at all but you are so negative it is though you want Swindon to fail .

Is Jack Smith not good enough or did he have his confidence destroyed by his Swindon experience due to being promoted too early?

That's because Cook has a lower ave than Rowe, only way to avoid that is using a "fast track" scheme something British clubs rarely do!

Cook coming over here  should be in the top five List was last year at Scunny and how did that end for him.Our British riders should be protected just like the Poles do with there younger lads give them a chance to develope.Cook and Macdonald get chances at reserve for there respective clubs for me that is not right.

MacDonald was in the top 5 at Sheffield but due to Broc Nichol riding well ended at reserve, you cant keep a rider in the top five if the ones at reserve are scoring more
