Royal Box 45 Posted July 3, 2014 Just hope Swindon make the play-offs then - they might even win a trophy Hope they do if Stars don't. Rather Swindon than Poole. Impressive win from 4 down and without Steve Worrall as well. Hope the meeting is as close on Saturday and we can nick a point off the Eagles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
semion 2,192 Posted July 3, 2014 Great win for Robins just shows if you are not fully on ya game you will get turned over. Lynn couldn't match Swindons 2nd string strength and that's all it takes 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 10,784 Posted July 3, 2014 A quiet night for both the world number three and our senior reserve too. Rory apart they were all under par, was going to happen eventually. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crazy robin 2,963 Posted July 3, 2014 Great performance from the Robins with all 6 riders winning a race & a great guest in Charles who has been a thorn against us often enough. Big up to Troy who really stepped up to the plate with his 3 last rides. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
orion 7,615 Posted July 3, 2014 Swindon are going need a lot more before people start Talking about Play offs . Kings Lynn bar Rory were below par tonight Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel Smith 5,666 Posted July 3, 2014 Swindon are going need a lot more before people start Talking about Play offs . Kings Lynn bar Rory were below par tonight Were we below par though our has Swindon just shown their potential. Don't underestimate what you've got, could now be peaking at the right time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chalkie 263 Posted July 3, 2014 Welcome back English! Looking forward to this but can only see a complete trashing of the Robins and it takes a lot for me to say that! Agreed, total annihilation due-if it don't drizzle a bit at 7:20pm! I know nothing, brilliant meeting-best so far this season that I have seen (and I have only missed one!) Well done you little Rockin' Robins-does our season start here? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
orion 7,615 Posted July 3, 2014 Were we below par though our has Swindon just shown their potential. Don't underestimate what you've got, could now be peaking at the right time Kings Lynn were below par ...Never expected much from Porsing or Robert Lambert but Puk ,Kenny and Kerr were poor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
van wolfswinkel 635 Posted July 3, 2014 Fantastic night of speedway at the Abbey...superb comeback from the Robins to inflict KL's heaviest defeat of the season, real captain's performance from Batch in heats 13 and 15, and good all-round teamwork, especially Charlie Wright. One of the best Swindon fightbacks for a while, and 4 points taken off the runaway leaders in 2 matches... good weather and decent-size crowd. Just need more consistency to reach the top 4.

Jacques 3,114 Posted July 3, 2014 I don't think I'll ever work Kenneth Bjerre out. He's an odd one...... Well done the Robins though. Proof, that no team is infallible. It's still a long way to the play off dates and a lot can happen before then and on the nights in question. Remember 2010 when the Pirates thought they had it in the bag?

BluTiger 21,701 Posted July 3, 2014 Ah well - had to happen sooner or later - gratz to the Robins. Whaaa?! - makes me laugh how others big us up then suddenly (when we FINALLY fail to get some points in a match) we're overrated! Geez Did you miss the two winks Star Fever....

lucifer sam 3,953 Posted July 3, 2014 Went to Swindon to see them get turned over by King's Lynn... it didn't go according to the script KL just fell apart after the interval, while Swindon got stronger. All the best Rob 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep, and none of us Stars fans have that kind of arrogance thank god. It ain't over until the last race of the season. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A ORLOV 8,628 Posted July 3, 2014 Great result for the Robins, and thanks to Charles Wright, who on the night was as good as Steve. Our second strings easily beat the stars and our heat leaders, apart from Troys first two rides showed what they could do. We need to do that every week at Blunsdon. Too many pessimists predicted we would get beaten. Also enjoyed the second half, we need one more often. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure who the Swindon fans are that have said it. But I have a good idea who one might be Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
