23/07/2018 - Premiership - Swindon V Leicester (Live on BT Sport)

Recommended Posts

Team News - Swindon - David Bellego has declared himself fit for Monday. Zach Wajtknecht is still out, Frenchman Dimitri Berge guests.

Team News - Leicester - Scott Nicholls, Josh Auty, Stuart Robson & Connor Mountain all make their debuts.

Prediction - Tough one to predict as Leicester have a solid 1-7 now, especially with Robson at reserve. I can’t see how Bellego is fully fit, plus Leicester will be fully motivated for this one. 

Robins 41-49 Lions

 

Robins (2nd 23 pts)

Last 5 Home (W W W W L)

1. Nick Morris

2. David Bellego

3. Adam Ellis

4. Tobiasz Musielak

5. Troy Batchelor

6. Dimitri Berge (GUEST)

7. Jack Smith

 

Lions (6th 17 pts)

Last 5 Away (L L L L L)

1. Hans Andersen

2. Charles Wright

3. Josh Auty

4. Ricky Wells

5. Scott Nicholls

6. Connor Mountain

7. Stuart Robson

Swindon track 3 French born riders, probably first time ever in league. The shop will be selling berets, and baguettes, croissants, pain aux raisins, frogs legs, and garlic snails will be available from the snack bar.

Will be interesting to see if Bellego is actually fit to ride or just worried about being replaced.

I look forward to seeing Nige and Kelv suitably attired

Now that is REALLY getting into the act and a great sense of marketing - at last. This kind of thematic promotion could be the start of saving UK speedway and bringing hordes of fans ( old and new ) to the terraces. Magic!

Another tough meeting & as we will get our usual beasting at reserve the top 5 will have to all have good nights.

Another home defeat could be disastrous for our play off hopes especially with us in such poor form on the road.

I’m surprised Smith is still in the side with Max Clegg available, 2 & 4+2 with Rye at Swindon.

I can see Batchelor and Andersen  leading from the front ,   but feel the peloton will be too big and too far adrift to catch up,   resulting in a close home win.

NB   Probably if the fans were allowed to stand that close to the action,   might persuade more fans to come and watch..:t:

Can the public get into the pits tonight as usual or is that a No/No because of BT.?

There is no entry into the pits due to all the tv equipment in them, the same as previous meetings being shown on tv.
