ReadingRacer2017

Just been speaking to a certain Mr Kilby on twitter and without telling me the official 1-7 for 2018, his hints point towards this team. Hints: A returning Robin - Tomasz will not be the only Pole - Rider with point to prove - Team will feature assets - Rider who guested at reserve in 2017. 1. Troy Batchelor 7.63 2. Adam Ellis 5.56 3. Tomasz Musielak 7.37 4. Pawel Przedpelski 7.00 5. Nick Morris 8.87 6. Danny Ayres 2.75 7. Zach Wajtknecht 3.21

I saw him ride all season, his form dipped alarmingly though.

Rumours on twitter that Hans Andersen is Swindon bound

1. Tomasz Musielak 7.37 2. Adam Ellis 5.56 3. David Bellego 7.37 4. Justin Sedgmen 5.79 5. Nick Morris 8.87 6. ?????????? 4.33 7. Zach Wajtknecht 3.21 4.33 Remaining for 1 rider Bellego and Sedgmen both assets, cheap and live in Swindon. That team will do absolutely nothing, i fear it will be close to that though.

Why have i got a bad feeling Rosco will go for Morris, Musielak and Bellego. I would not touch Bellego on his current average.

1. Hans Andersen 7.75 2. Adam Ellis 5.56 3. Troy Batchelor 7.63 4. Tobiasz Musielak 7.37 5. Nick Morris 8.87 6. ??????? 2.11 7. Zach Wajtknecht 3.21

I'm not surprised with the decision to keep Morris and lose Doyle. I think Rosco got fed up with Doyle in 2017, many times he would pull out of meetings injured, then ride in Sweden & Poland day later. Nick Morris deserves his chance but will need to be backed up by Musielak and most probably Batchelor, I just hope it isn't Bellego and Musielak as that would be a disaster.

1. Jason Doyle 9.53 2. Adam Ellis 5.49 3. Tobiasz Musielak 7.21 4. Rohan Tungate 6.12 5. Troy Batchelor 7.63 6. Ben Morley 3.29 7. Zach Wajtknecht 3.21 TOTAL = 42.48

1. Jason Doyle 9.74 2. Kyle Newman 4.86 3. Troy Batchelor 7.49 4. Tobiasz Musielak 7.37 5. Nick Morris 8.77 6. Zach Wajtknecht 3.51 7. Danny Ayres 3.02 44.76

A top 4 of Doyle,Morris,Bellego,Musielak or Batchelor,Morris,Bellego,Musielak. Wilson-Dean and Zach as reserves if it fits. Ellis back to Poole

Morris, Bellego, Musielak and Zach. Pretty much certain for 2018 I would think.

With Bradley Wilson-Dean in that form, Swindon must be favourites. Would of made the difference against Belle Vue last friday, poor judgement by Rosco on that one. I'm actually hoping Wolves go through to the final, Thorssell now a major doubt with multiple broken ribs. COME ON THE ROBINS

So apparently Ellis is Poole bound according to sponsors on Twitter. Morris, Bellego, Musielak nailed on for 2018 place?

Swindon 54-36 Wolves 1. Jason Doyle 3 3 3 2' 1 - 12+1 2. Adam Ellis 0 1 3 1 - 5 3. Tobiasz Musielak 3 2' 2 2 - 9+1 4. David Bellego 1 3 1' 3 - 8+1 5. Nick Morris 2 3 2 3 3 - 13 6. Bradley Wilson-Dean 2 0 2' 1' 1 - 6+2 7. Liam Carr 1' 0 0 - 1+1 1. Chris Harris 1' 1 2 3 1 - 8+1 2. Kyle Howarth 2 0 0 1 1 - 4 3. Rory Schlein 2 2 0 3 2 0 - 9 4. r/r 5. Sam Masters 3 2 1' 3 0 2 - 11+1 6. Mark Riss 3 0 0 0 0 - 3 7. Nathan Greaves 0 1 0 - 1

If Ellis and Wilson-Dean are on form, Wolves will be in trouble.

Prediction 1st Leg - Swindon 54-36 Wolves

Lindgren was taken to hospital with suspected neck injury, highly doubt he will be available for 1st leg on Monday. Likely line-up for Monday 1. Jason Doyle 2. Adam Ellis or R/R 3. Tobiasz Musielak 4. David Bellego 5. Nick Morris 6. Bradley Wilson-Dean 7. Liam Carr 1. GUEST 2. Kyle Howarth 3. R/R 4. Rory Schlein 5. Sam Masters 6. Mark Riss 7. Nathan Greaves

I've done absolutely nothing to deserve such a reaction, go take a look on the Swindon Advertiser for yourself.

As Ellis looks a big doubt for Swindon, can someone tell me who can take his rides. Many Thanks

Confirmed teams for Friday 1. Kenneth Bjerre 2. Steve Worrall 3. Hans Andersen (Guest) 4. Rohan Tungate 5. Craig Cook 6. Dan Bewley 7. Rob Shuttleworth (Guest) 1. Freddie Lindgren 2. Kyle Howarth 3. Rory Schlein 4. R/R 5. Sam Masters 6. Mark Riss 7. Nathan Greaves Prediction - Belle Vue 51-39 Wolves - Wolves go through, JUST!!

Was impressed with young reserves Shanes & Carr tonight. Wilson-Dean was in fantastic form, best I've seen him in 2017. Bellego seemed more like his old self, despite Shanes outgating him. Morris and Musielak solid scoring as always, Doyle will need to step it up a notch in the final. Carr was outgating everyone, just needs to find the right racing lines. Poole apart from Andersen, Kurtz and Shanes were mediocre, expected more from Lahti (thought he was scoring points for fun). Eddie Kennett, now that's one rider you wouldn't want riding for you in a semi-final. COME ON THE ROBINS

Fricke unavailable due to late GP call-up, Smith injured. 1. Kenneth Bjerre 2. Steve Worrall 3. Hans Andersen (Guest) 4. Rohan Tungate 5. Craig Cook 6. Dan Bewley 7. Ben Hopwood (Guest) Doyle unavailable due to GP (Kurtz Guests), Wilson-Dean riding for Peterborough (Jonasson Guests), Liam Carr in for Zach. 1. Brady Kurtz 2. Adam Ellis 3. Tobiasz Musielak 4. David Bellego 5. Nick Morris 6. Thomas H Jonasson 7. Liam Carr Prediction: Aces 51-39 Robins

I think if he scores anywhere near 8+1 he would have done very well.

Scores from Pirates last visit. Poole will need each rider to at least double their previous scores. Jack Holder 8+1 - Would have done very well to repeat this score Timo Lahti 7 - Considering he was riding at Number 5 this match, beat Doyle & Morris in heat 15. More than capable of scoring well Hans Andersen 6 - Would expect at least double figures from Andersen this time Paul Starke 3+2 - Capable of scoring more, should in theory have the beating of a half-fit BWD Edward Kennett 3 - One heat - can pass the best, next heat - dire. Should be looking for at least 6 or more points James Shanes 1+1 - Should be a even battle with Carr, can be the difference between a 3-3 or 2-4 Brady Kurtz - Was replaced by Richie Worrall who scored 6. Poole need him and Hans firing on all cylinders. COME ON THE ROBINS
