Shows their resolve in running the club long term Thank you so much That is good news, and regardless of the figure's in losses the council trust these owners to finally get it right. Whether it takes 2 or 20 years the council are showing their faith. Just wish every council up and down the country would do the same hey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tell you something Geoff , Hyde Rd was my favourite track ever i loved it there the track you have week in week out now is superb.It has to be in the top five or six racing tracks in the world( it would be in my top 4.)

Depending which Peter we get, and if it's the good version, then we will comfortably make the play offs this time. You will get in the playoffs Ace i still think you will be minus a point or so with no Max but in Kurtz, Bewley, Lidsey(who will be world class) real improvement in the side.Kildemand i saw at Swindon great value mega entertainment has he regressed? don't know if back to normal great value and can score points away.

Paddy The Rebel 300 Posted December 13, 2019 8 hours ago, acef said: They were never invincible for me, they made good changes at the right moment and that ultimately carried them through. Jensen being a gem of a capture. As a starting 3rd H/L I wouldn't be overly confident of him growing that average. If anything he will lose half to a point. Combine that with the tail and as it currently stands BV have a stronger team. There is only 1 reason I back Swindon, and that is down purely to the changes they will make. I'll bet my bottom dollar that once Jensen starts to lose some points of that average alongside the last places Rowe will get (no disrespect to the kid), Toby will come back into that team putting Stewart at reserve who will also lose points of his average in the main body of that team at the start of the season. Swindon react well and that is the simplicity of my thinking. Just a quick edit: Doyle Ellis Museliak Jensen Batchelor Stewart Perks/Rowe (1 will go) That is what they will look like half way through the season. Bet my mortgage Ill bet myn it isnt as musielak cant be re introduced where he was in team last yr. And to quote someone re charles wright it was the bt meeting where he scored 18pts and had a tac sub ride so not to shabby round there lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Etheridge rode for BV in 2018 and wasn’t selected at the start of 2019 but came back into the side mid-season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All totally fair, unbiased and above board, of course. Still, Bellego came back into the Swindon side too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
