Recommended Posts

Can someone point out to these commentators that Swindon also lost 2 riders during the course of the meeting.

 

Great last race there. Made up for the TR cock-up.

Crikey. Not going to revel in that win. Comiserations to Leicester. Hope all the boys from both sides are alright.

 

Get out of jail for Rosco and some dodgy tactical picks there. Lucky Jim Lynch was his opposite number tonight. 2 and 4 in heat 15? What a loony.

Jim Lynch deserved that tonight. So many shocking decisions.

Leicester made two huge errors. not naming a number 8 which many years ago you had to when using r/r and secondly young Riss' lack of awareness.

But congrats to Swindon, it takes two teams to make a match and whilst it was a car crash it had my attention from start to finish, all 150 mins of it.

Not sure it matters what shape a track is built when it is prepared like that.

 

IMO that was a shocking racing surface.

I have seen far worse.... usually when BT or Sky were at Poole!

So Rosco said there is no overtaking at this track.... made yourself look a bit silly there Rosco.

I went to Swindon last Thursday. More overtaking in the first FIVE heats tonight than in the whole meeting at Swindon.

 

So how rubbish does that make your track Rosco?

Btsport have had a real steal off Sky. Nearly all the meetings so far have been eventful, although in this case not always for the right reasons. Fingers crossed the withdrawan riders are able to ride again soon.

Too much dirt on outside, not enough on the inside.

Rider need to be taught about being aware where other riders are, and that leads on to team riding - the art has completely gone.

Do hope the injured riders are not too bad.

Shame Leicester lost in the end, better team for much of the match, just lost out at the end due to lack of riders.
