Are you getting mixed up, Sid? If Rowe will struggle in the 1-5 at Somerset, what chance has he got at Swindon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

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. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No because if your memory allows you he did ride for the Belle Vue Aces before coming to us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
