Yep, that was on the polish sites earlier but thought I'd hold back until it was announced. Makes us stronger as Ellis at reserve which is what I said.

I wonder if Gater1 wishes they hadn't slated the Swindon Side now, people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

The rider is likely to replace Gappmaier & will allow Ellis to stay at reserve for a longer period. Ellis goes well, BWD will drop down, Swindon will be stronger for the change.

I think it's a straight replacement assuming the averages work out.

The wait maybe over, expect some news tomorrow & a possible change for Thursday.

Leicester have signed Pawel Przedpelski then, good signing for them. Goes to show that signing's are out there it's just finding the right one.

Personally I would be opening the purse strings to purchase both.

I do recall reading that in the star a month or so ago.

I believe that Colin Pratt was tasked with ensuring we has more meetings during July & August when the kid's had finished School. I'm sure this may explain some of this.

The Adver says it's after the crash Saturday.

I missed what nick said Thursday as I was at the bar & couldn't hear what was being said. I do think it's strange that the bspa have adopted different rules to the FIM. If a brain scan is good enough for them then why wasn't it for the bspa which is what Nick had prior to our meeting. Oh well.

You would have thought that all leagues would follow an FIM guideline whatever that is.

Doyle doesn't ride for Australia tonight. Nick appears to be which makes the bspa 9 day ruling for concussion seem pointless to me know. 9 days would rule him out until tomorrow. FIM must be different?!

Mikkel Bech.....No thanks. Musielak.....On his average I would have him in.

Not sure why BWD was excluded in heat 14 but thankfully the robins held out. The 9 day rule is bspa. I assume that the FIM is different which makes him missing tonight slightly ridiculous IMO

Doesn't look at all suss but certainly helps us out Looks like both Nick & Dany were due to practice this morning but both unable too. http://www.swindonrobins.co/news.php?extend.2902

Don't get me wrong, any head injury needs to be treated carefully & if the rules are 9 days rest then so be it (I do wonder whether the FIM follow the same rules as come Saturday Nick will have only missed 8 days). My point is that a guest should be allowed. He's our 2nd best rider, put points on his average & losing him to R/R isn't fair IMO

I have to agree with Rosco on this, it's a joke that you can't have a guest for an injured rider because they are in positions 2-5 yet wolves who have a double up rider can bring in King & Starke at reserve for their injured rider. Nick is key to our side & without him we weakened massively. I don't blame Nick or Swindon in trying to have him passed fit although I can't see the bspa allowing it.

So basically you're saying that a team should be able to make like for like changes whenever they want......

No. Not at all. I don't think any team should be able improve for the sake of it unless they want to rebuild to the new team average. If I was guna be a anti Poole can you not acknowledge how poor your track was tonight, it was an absolute joke. I've seen smoother grasstrack meetings than that.

Tungate average is actually lower than Sedgy's. My point is that it's a joke that a team can replace a rider Like for like on a similar average to improve their team. Take your blue tinted glasses off for a mo & I think you will have to agree. Klindt was never guna be in Pooles 1-5 once he got an average. Gets a average over 6, should Poole be able to benefit from that? Wolves may as well bomb Howarth & bring Tai in.

it's just a f**king joke. You make a valid point about Tungate for sedgy & I forgot this but does it make it right? shoukd a team be able to improve when it's already above the averages? You will already benefit by allowing KK back in. Should you be able to benefit on Klindts "new average"

If that's right them I'm f**king done. Averages Are pointless

Good point, although Doyle is a number 1 & hasn't rode a league match since his injury. Klindt rode tonight. Surely you can't bring KK back & then make a change like for like for Klindt. Swindon are under the pints limit by 1.02 so are able to able to make a move. Poole are already over by 1.3, goes up to about 2.5 when KK is back in. Swindon can move without any issues

How can Poole replace Klindt. He rode tonight so surely he can't be replaced on an injury basis. Surely the only way is to rebuild their team to the 42 point limit, if that's not the case the I think I'm done with this season.
