  1. LINE-UP: Ricky Wells, Danny King, Richard Lawson, Rory Schlein, Jacob Thorssell, Scott Nicholls, Pontus Aspgren, Tobiasz Musielak, Steve Worrall, Oliver Berntzon, Chris Harris, Aaron Summers, Gino Manzares, Peter Karlsson, Lasse Bjerre. RESERVES: Max Clegg, Tom Perry.

     

    That is only 15 riders. Is the 16th rider Joe Jacobs or Chris Harris again.

    By the great one I assume you mean Swindon's legendary team manager Alun "Mighty" Rosco-tor. In which case your comments on trying to get meetings rained-off are as misguided as many others who come up with similar, ahem, "banter" without noticing that he maintained a consistent viewpoint in each of those rain affected meetings.

     

    No he didn't. He wanted it called off after heat 9 then moaned like hell when it was called off after heat 10.


  3. How can Coventry have a guest for Barker?

     

    Havelock made it clear on Monday that Barker was fit but he wasn't sure about using him in the second leg.

     

    That's fine if he doesn't want to use Barker, but there is no way they should be allowed a guest. Swindon should protest about this.

     

    Oh dear are we getting worried now the track is going to be wet and showers during the meeting.

    Replacing an Elite League heat leader with a Premier League Rider.

    Never mind The Great One can try and have it called off after 9 heats.

  4. And here is what Nathan Greaves alleges happened, taken from his FB page.

     

    Anyone who knows me and my dad personally know we would not cause any trouble, James was cheating over my gate at the start line and in the end I just moved to please him, I gated him and led him for three laps he caught my back wheel trying to pass me and fell off, then he came up to me and said abusive things and shoved his head in my face, so I pushed it away, then he kicked my bike and ran my dad over and knocked him to the floor, to knock a 16stone man to the floor you must be riding into them with force, then his mechanic grabbed me by the neck as I was running so I couldn't breath so my dad hit him, sadly he's unconcious but none of this would of happened if James didn't turn around and except he had fell off and I beaten him, then I went over to whoever was on the floor to see if he was okay and someone from the crowd shouts something about my dad so in temper I obviously react, just wanted to clear that up with everyone who now hates me.

     

     

    And thats from the horses mouth so to speak, i myself do not condone such behavior, but there are certain circumstances surrounding this, which need to be investigated, Not only the riders, mechanics, but also the starting Marshall and referee, allegedly Nathan Greaves is being reported to the BSPA by the referee, it appears to me, that the same needs to be done of a certain other rider.

     

    What a load of crap.

    Friday admission prices are as follows:

    Adults £22, Concessions £18, Under-16s £5, Under-11s Free. Entry for season ticket holders will be £5 to cover the Storm meeting. Programme £3.

     

    I see they can't even get their pricing to agree on the website. Advertising Poster on Website says £17.

     

    I see they must still be reading the forum then even if they will not reply, as web site now altered.

    Glad to have been of service.

     


  6. The club appreciates the concerns expressed by season ticket holders regarding the different pricing policies for the hectic schedule of home meetings over the last month, including double-headers. Season ticket holders who wish to discuss the issue further with the promotion are more than welcome, as always, to enter into correspondence via the usual channels and we will be pleased to respond.

     

    Where you will be told that they have to let you in to the Wolves match and then you will be escorted out.


  7. Tuesday September 23, 2014

    ADMISSION prices for Friday's Coventry v Wolverhampton/Coventry v Cradley double-header have been confirmed as follows:

     

    Season ticket holders £5 admission to cover additional Storm meeting.

     

     

    They can not charge season ticket holders £5 if they do not want to watch the Storm meeting.

    They can not refuse to let S/T holders into the first match only.

    Can Neil Watson please explain how they are going to break the contract if they try and enforce the above charge.

     

     

    QUOTE FROM OLD NEWS ITEM

    Season Tickets will be valid for all senior team fixtures, with a minimum of 18 top-flight fixtures to take place under the new league format – and, as an added bonus, Season Tickets will also be valid for the Christmas Cracker if paid for in full before Christmas.

     

    No meeting ever given for paying in full before Christmas.

    No 2nd Birmingham Meeting.

    Also additional charge for OAP's at the gate is £4 yet they expect S/T holders to all pay £5.


  8. Fixture planning in this country is a bloody nightmare, 100% if we only had 2 race nights things would be easier.

    I agree that stronger governance would help, take last night, why didn't the management committee ring Rob and tell him officially about Luke Priest's inclusion? The Coventry management also said they had rang all ftr's but apparently they had not!!!

     

     

    the Coventry pairs team plus reserve thrashed "title contenders"

     

     

    interesting, do you know which riders were not contacted?

    We are still waiting for an answer as you seem to know some fact that the rest of us don't.
