Steve0 5,517 Posted October 1, 2014 OK - Coventry lead by 8 points going into this second leg. We won't see a repeat of the last Blunsdon encounter score wise - it will be much closer but I think that Swindon will progress to the final. C'mon you Robins!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A ORLOV 8,628 Posted October 2, 2014 (edited) I see on the Linksport site that comments have been made about the this meeting and that it may be a good idea to get the team some time on the track before monday. http://swindonlinksport.com/swindon_sports_news/fansviewdeanwilson2 If possible this would be a good idea but do not know how practical arranging it would be. If all the riders ride to their ability we should be able to overturn the lead of 8 points but expecting the overall score to be close.

I think it depends which Coventry team turn up. If the Hans, Bomber and Hansen that ride to their ability turn up, then 8 points should be enough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bees_Man 454 Posted October 2, 2014 Think the weather may play a part here. If wet and heavy think that will help Coventry. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TitusTokio 43 Posted October 2, 2014 I think Cov are favourites for this. Everything has to go right for Swindon and as we know that rarely happens for any team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SCB 0 Posted October 2, 2014 It's going to rain. Coventry like the rain Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Poole Quay 7 616 Posted October 2, 2014 8 points is a tricky amount and Swindon will have to hit hard from the beginning otherwise Coventry might just hold on? Interesting meeting for sure.........I hope it turns out to be a cracker for the crowd and may the best team win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red Robin 200 Posted October 2, 2014 When it comes to Playoffs, I really don't agree with the use of tacticals, this is when they should be banned for all four teams imo. Hope they are not used next monday by any team including Swindon. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think that it is crazy at the best of times but in a 2 legged meeting! Surely the sensible thing if tacticals have to be used in the semi's, it should be based on the overall score. I can well remember Reading loosing the 2006 Final on tactical rides . Absolutely bonkers. Edited October 2, 2014 by DunRobin 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bee 26 426 Posted October 2, 2014 I'm sure Hans won't like it wet and heavy! We just need to tuck in for 3-3's. Need Hansen to carry on his good run of form and Hans and Bomber to hit double figures. Garrity should be good for 7 or 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Surely the sensible thing if tacticals have to be used in the semi's, it should be based on the overall score. I can well remember Reading loosing the 2006 Final on tactical rides . Absolutely bonkers. basically what you are saying is that we cant use tatticals until we are 20 points behind on the night, what you are saying is in effect we cant use tatticals, this wouldnt sound so bad if before the monday meeting you stated that tatticals couldnt be used, now just because you havent used them all of a sudden its a issue. its only eight points everyone from swindon have been saying how great your team is, then its shouldn't be a problem should it!
