Surely we can't be going r/r with Hansen in the team. Even Kennett would be a better option. Do the management actually want to get in the play offs? Can see the Eagles winning both and knocking us out.

Ideal scenario for Bees to be perfectly honest is 2 pts tomorrow, 5 pts for Eastie.

Then Belle Vue holds the key. Table in this case:

Swindon 32 55 pts

Coventry 29 53 pts

Eastie 30 51 pts

 

Remaining fixtures after that:

Eastie at BV twice and Coventry vs. Poole (H), vs. BV (A), vs. Wolves (H). Not sure about last one, will it be before cut off date?

Coventry to finish above Swindon that's sure and Eastie will have to pick up 5 pts at BV. Seems very unlikely but this is the only scenario I can imagine to stop Swindon. Poole and KL struggling lately and will not be any danger for Bees in PO. ;)

Surely the Bees cant be running with R/R.

 

Way way way to risky. Need to get a guest in. Plenty of riders out there to choose from.[/quote

 

Like who? Has to be a PL guest that's good enough to ride as a heat leader. Who would you suggest?

And they got riders like Hansen who can score 0 .....not sure what bearing getting trashed by Poole has on this match as Eastie have a stronger side in this match v a weak looking cov side who look like they are taking the crazy step of using rr in a double headed

Hansen,haworth and a.n,other /rr is not weak then ??

Hansen and Howarth are decent at Poole which could win us the title. Hansen form is a worry though.

interesting you should say that as a strong rumour going around that Bees only looking for 2 points tonight which is why they didn't book Robson (when they usually book guests asap if already guested) and let Eastbourne book him instead.

Rumour that they showed "poor form" on Monday on a track they all ride/guest well on so that when they get 2 points and Eastbourne get 5 tonight, people think its just down to a dip in form and this is one of the strongest Eastbourne teams we have seen away.

 

Bees would then only need 3 points from their remaining 3 meetings, of which they have already beat Poole (with Ward) Wolves and also had a easy 4pt away win at Belle Vue recently so know they will get them. Also Eastbourne would still be in the play off running.

 

will be interesting to see tonight.

Heard the same thing several times this week but hoping its just a rumour

 

Did find Monday very strange though as much as it was great to win. Coventry riders have been really good when they have guested for us this season, Sarjeant, Hans and Garrity and we know how Harris and ex Robin Howarth also ride at the Abbey yet on Monday all 6 of them "lost form" after the recent away thrashings of Lakeside & Belle Vue (which we found isn't a easy place to go) plus they were fired up from 5 man win against King's Lynn.

Maybe they did all just have a bad night but yet it was just very strange. With Coventry fans saying they want King's Lynn in the semi, were they hoping they would see Monday and pick them? Who knows

What is your problem and what is all this rubbish about posting under 3 different names? think you are the one with a problem looking at the way you are abusive to other posters on here.

 

Does that mean Belle Vue are a better team than Swindon as well then?
