ReadingRacer2017 159 Posted July 20, 2018 (edited) Team News - Swindon - David Bellego has declared himself fit for Monday. Zach Wajtknecht is still out, Frenchman Dimitri Berge guests. Team News - Leicester - Scott Nicholls, Josh Auty, Stuart Robson & Connor Mountain all make their debuts. Prediction - Tough one to predict as Leicester have a solid 1-7 now, especially with Robson at reserve. I can’t see how Bellego is fully fit, plus Leicester will be fully motivated for this one.

auntie doris 2,342 Posted July 22, 2018 Swindon track 3 French born riders, probably first time ever in league. The shop will be selling berets, and baguettes, croissants, pain aux raisins, frogs legs, and garlic snails will be available from the snack bar. 1 1 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will be interesting to see if Bellego is actually fit to ride or just worried about being replaced. Robins (2nd 23 pts) Last 5 Home (W W W W L) 1. Nick Morris 2. David Bellego 3. Adam Ellis 4.

Now that is REALLY getting into the act and a great sense of marketing - at last. This kind of thematic promotion could be the start of saving UK speedway and bringing hordes of fans ( old and new ) to the terraces. Magic! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crazy robin 2,963 Posted July 22, 2018 Another tough meeting & as we will get our usual beasting at reserve the top 5 will have to all have good nights. Another home defeat could be disastrous for our play off hopes especially with us in such poor form on the road. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m surprised Smith is still in the side with Max Clegg available, 2 & 4+2 with Rye at Swindon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can see Batchelor and Andersen leading from the front , but feel the peloton will be too big and too far adrift to catch up, resulting in a close home win. NB Probably if the fans were allowed to stand that close to the action, might persuade more fans to come and watch.. Edited July 23, 2018 by g13webb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is no entry into the pits due to all the tv equipment in them, the same as previous meetings being shown on tv. Edited July 23, 2018 by A ORLOV Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
