mdmc82 2,878 Posted July 3, 2014 This could be a very close meeting as although Swindon have been struggling a little away from home, they have riders that ride Brandon well. At present both teams are only without 1 rider each. Bees bring in Lewis Blackbird in place of the injured Kyle Howarth. Swindon will be without Worrall who is riding in PL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woz01 3,589 Posted July 3, 2014 Looking forward to this. Bees to win by 10 now we have 3 genuine heatleaders and Garrity riding fills me with lots more confidence. Any news on who is replacing Worrall? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mdmc82 2,878 Posted July 3, 2014 Not yet, Rosco having same problem we have when Garrity is missing on a Friday, poor rider availability Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MFE 105 Posted July 3, 2014 Does MJJ feel like riding tomorrow or do we get another lame excuse? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Voice Of Reason 2,124 Posted July 3, 2014 Was looking forward to this one too. Until I just checked the BBC Weather Forecast (generally pretty accurate). Rain tomorrow from 5pm, turning heavy at 6pm right through to Midnight. Think it's another Friday night down the boozer by the look of things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevebrum 6,820 Posted July 3, 2014 Does MJJ feel like riding tomorrow or do we get another lame excuse? The weather is warm so he might get sunburned. Probably too dangerous for the poor lad. Difficult to predict as both sides are unpredictable. On paper it should be about a ten ;point home win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bees_Man 454 Posted July 3, 2014 Weather will be the winner I think, and the meeting will be rearranged when half the riders are missing! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skidder1 7,632 Posted July 3, 2014 Weather will be the winner I think, and the meeting will be rearranged when half the riders are missing! At least if it rains it should dampen down the pollen count somewhat!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thecoombdog 2,367 Posted July 4, 2014 Me and a few of the boys were coming up for this one but the stupid FTD rider strikes again and Worrall's replacement is going to be a joke so saving our cash. More lost revenue for a club solely down to the draft. Pretty sure we wont be the only Swindon fans with that attitude as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If I was you id ask your promotion why you didnt make Worrall an asset while you had the chance. Choices are limited I admit but Luke Crang might be a good bet, obviously knows Brandon well. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coventry have the same problem most Home meetings when Garrity is missing as Friday track and we have to replace him with rider 20th or below yet still the crowds have been really big. We beat Poole at our last home meeting with rider 20th on list instead of Garrity, you need to have more Fairh in your top 5 who ride Brandon well, Grieves also used to practice at Brandon before meetings so knows the track well (if he stays on) Weather update: very sunny & blue skies at present Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grachan 7,314 Posted July 4, 2014 (edited) There do seem to be an awful lot of instances this year where a lot comes down to who can get in first with the best guest. Not really great for credibility. Edited July 4, 2014 by grachan 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bees_Man 454 Posted July 4, 2014 Will be washed out anyway. Band of rain on way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shale Searcher 1,264 Posted July 4, 2014 Rain due in West Midlands this evening and overnight, it's arrival and its strength is not 100% clear cut, might not rain till 8.30, then only light drizzle until after dark, pressure not falling as quickly, if pressure rocks back to originally predicted figures then rain from 18:00 check again 3pm.... (Not thundery, just possibly persistent) Convective stuff to follow after 12:00 Sat afternoon... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
