Skidder1 7,637 Posted April 23, 2015 (edited) I'd be delighted for an away point tonight. Shame Swindon have so many injuries, always an entertaining match with 2 full teams. The fact that Newman has a lower draft ranking than Charles Wright shows what kind of Poole manipulated joke the whole rider seeding was. Before anyone goes on about "Yeah it was based on his PL average" well anyone can find a criteria which suits them. Fact is, Newman won Poole the EL last year and his seeding should have reflected the advantage he was for Poole. Anyway, back on topic, I predict a strong Robins showing, winning by 10. Yeah shouldn't be guesting for Swindon tonight. Hope he fails to score for you. Still if you can find a criteria that suits you?! Absolute joke!!

Steve0 5,517 Posted April 23, 2015 Nice to see some fans admit that sometimes guests do appear to make your team stronger Not if Harris rides like he did last night Yeah shouldn't be guesting for Swindon tonight. Hope he fails to score for you. Still if you can find a criteria that suits you?! Absolute joke!! Except he's not a Swindon fan! He does have a point though! As I said at the time, how on earth could Newman be ranked so low - definitely fishy - especially as they all had genuine EL draft averages which would surely more fairer and have Newman in the top 2 or 3 and probably not race for Poole. Anyway, it is what it is and I hope he tries his best for the team he is representing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crazy robin 2,963 Posted April 23, 2015 Any team that has Kylle Newman at reserve has an unfair advantage:-) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
speedy17 226 Posted April 23, 2015 Got a feeling we're going to be poor away all season. Get Bjerre out, what a waste of space, 3 points around Swindon? Pathetic. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrss 691 Posted April 23, 2015 It's time to get rid of bjerre and bring mads in at least mads puts 100 percent effort in every time he's on the track. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 10,784 Posted April 23, 2015 (edited) Wonder how long the management will tolerate carrying Bjerre & Morris? Twelve last places and just five heat wins is a recipe for a hiding I'm afraid. This team has lacked spark so far this season, everything seems flat. A couple of defeats next week and serious questions will need to be asked.

pubichair 160 Posted April 23, 2015 The result ain't surprising it's what you get when you have Schlein Nick and bjerre in top 5 all poor away from home and ash Morris has been poor too! Even Niels hasnt started well! No way will we make play offs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve0 5,517 Posted April 23, 2015 Well done to the Robins (and guests). As predicted an easy win for the Robins but a greater margin than I thought it would be. Just as well the track specialist that is Schlein didn't turn up or Bjerre! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Star Lady 5,400 Posted April 23, 2015 I think Morris should be given a bit of slack. Coming back from bad injury and probably hasn't got the funds to get the best equipment nor the sponsors. Not sure where who could replace him that would fare much better in the short term. Bjerre on the other hand................ 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Was always the problem keeping the same top 5, last year it stood out, this year everyone else has caught up again. Bjerre only cares if he makes the gate, if he's last he won't even attempt to make a pass, bloody piss poor from a supposed GP calibre rider. Wonder if the management will tap up Protasewicz next week at this European club tournament we're going to come stone last in... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
