A ORLOV 8,628 Posted August 31, 2016 (edited) Leicester visit this thursday and this is a must win meeting for Swindon if we want any hopes of getting to the play offs, otherwise this may well be our last home meeting this season, subject to what the Inter-league challenge on Sep 15th is. The Robins need to up their game and if they all ride as they can we can get three points but with some of the riders being inconsistent anything could happen. http://www.swindonrobins.co/news.php?extend.2758 Edited August 31, 2016 by A ORLOV Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sidney the robin 4,735 Posted August 31, 2016 Leicester shocked us bigtime earlier in the season so nothing should be taken for granted here.The reserves are a concern for us at the moment and Toft who along with Auty could outscore ours.Saying that Auty has been poor at the Abbey lately so we might get away with it.A home win but this might not be easy i am worried about our reserves and Sedgy fingers crossed we can creep over the line for the playoffs.

waiheke1 4,295 Posted September 1, 2016 They will never have a better chance as Lynn are missing riders & woeful.Reckon lakeside will pick up a point, which will likely mean swindon needing a point away to make the playoffs. Would like to see swindon make play offs, always had a soft spot for the Robins, fans seem a good bunch and certainly can't be accused of being glory hunters. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hagonshocker 1,956 Posted September 1, 2016 What riders are missing ? Rose a fair loss for them with the form he's shown Sarjent in, ouch. Schlein replaced by Porsing could be about the same and Batchelor been missing all season oh and no Simon Lambert obviously King in for Nilsson which could i say could swing things for Lakeside although the Swede has been pretty impressive at times , guess for Lakeside it all depends on which EK turns up and if Bridger turns up at all Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If Bridger rides anything like he did at Coventry then I'd say there's not much chance. Edited September 1, 2016 by Gemini Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
