keef robin 551 Posted May 18, 2017 Swindon have scored more points away from The Abbey. Their home form is about as bad as Zummerzet! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mdmc82 2,878 Posted May 18, 2017 Great result for King's Lynn. Can't say I'm overly surprised though. The team change was puzzling as didn't look to really strengthen them. Ellis seems to be getting a lot of blame for scoring 2 but BWD only scored 2 and the reserves 3 each so lots of week links Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

theblueboy 960 Posted May 18, 2017 Congratulations KL on a deserved victory. Sharper from the tapes and rode the right lines. Batchelor rode well and the best I have seen at The Abbey for a couple of seasons. No throttling off as he entered the bends. Good support from Lambert, Huckenbeck and Holder. Doyle sublime. The score truly flattered Swindon and tough decisions have to be made, and quick. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

g13webb 4,254 Posted May 18, 2017 After having 2 meeting in 4 days, its now over a month since Swindon's last home match. This crazy planning schedule might be to the Stars advantage in that the Robins riders have forgotten where the track is Prediction: Stars to lose 48 - 42 ( HL=30pts; SS=8; RR= 4). ....... To get a point here tonight would be a massive plus.... I did think about some of Swindon riders not turning up, but I never thought we would be strong enough to win. Special mention to Doyle's maximum but the rest of the Robins have to ask themselves about their input...... Without Jason this could have been over much earlier.... A good win for the Stars on the road, but feel being 14 points up, we ought to have got all 4 on offer.... Don't see the logic of Bailey having to wait 10 heats to ride in Heat 14. If the chips had been down we would have been in s-it street. Surely, once Bailey's 3rd ride was changed, then to put him back in heat 9 would have been the obvious choice leaving Huck to ride in heat 14, when we could have needed him more...... It didn't matter tonight, but next time it might......... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BluTiger 21,703 Posted May 18, 2017 Ellis was signed on 7.64 but is only averaging 3.13 after six meetings. Young Adam needs to get a Championship team and more rides imo... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 10,791 Posted May 18, 2017 (edited) Delighted to be proved wrong. Have said all along that the team was built around Holder and the senior reserve scoring well and that is starting to bear fruit. Would have been nice to take all four points but three will do very nicely. There is lots more to come from this team and one we get a scoring number seven the sky could be the limit.

Dale said his number 1, 5 and 6 are his reliable engine room if I can call it that. Well pleased they got the win, of course would've been great to get max points but happy Edited May 18, 2017 by Trees Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crazy robin 2,963 Posted May 18, 2017 Tonight was what was expected from Swindon when they named their team & guess Bradley won't be quite so cocky in the local paper this week. The team is poor & big questions need to be answered & as Doyley said after changes might need to be made. Kings Lynn deserved their win & the score line flattered Swindon. can you see from your laptop? 🤔😛 You didn't fancy coming over & saying hello then?. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bald Bloke 3,290 Posted May 18, 2017 (edited) Batch scored well.Huckenbeck rattled in some points,and he should be scoring well at reserve.His last 2 meetings have been good. Porsing and Bailey(to early for him) are a bit of a worry for me.I know Porsing is riding at 3 but I think he should be scoring a few more points than he is. Interesting to see who they bring in early June.I hope they make the most of the points on offer. Edited May 18, 2017 by Bald Bloke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
