Maybe he has. One things certain and that is he won't be getting his usual reception at Poole this evening. A shame.

He really should have refused. Swindon could have got another guest. Or more than likely BWD would have ridden. Does Kyle no favours at all, especially in the long term.

Perhaps you should be renamed Gollum.

Not true. Andersen attempted half a meeting and never rode again last year. Plenty of pics online of his broken hand. Lindback was no replacement for Andersen, as his score and no show showed. This BWD move is just pure cheating, played out in front of a tv audience. I expect to see BWD there with his wrist bandaged and perhaps to convince even more, in a sling. Swindon cheating scum.

But they can't replace Bellego, only r/r. Its not karma, its cheating and as you say, unnecessary. Swindon were more than capable of winning both legs. So cheating like this just stinks the sport out. Also, why Kyle can get some retribution, is one payday worth it? Matt Ford will not be impressed and while its an opportunity for Kyle to raise the middle finger after being dropped, further down the line such a booking could cost him more than he earns tonight.

So if BWD rides just fine for the rest of the season, but lets say in the playoff final against Wolves Swindon bought in Newman again, you would be happy?

What makes this cheating move a real shame, is that if Swindon now go on to win the title, their title will be tarnished in many peoples eyes. There really was no need for it. Why couldn't Swindon use their own rider? This sore wrist is utter rubbish and everyone knows it. Swindon desperate, or what?

Gavan you are too predictable. If you think what has happened here is fair and OK, you are no better than the cheating Swindon Robins. Even Swindon fans are embarrassed about this. And they should be.

No of course not. Swindon are cheating, end of story. I can see Rosco yesterday praying BWD would have a duff meeting so it would look ok. Then BWD goes out and has a blinder, beating Cook. Oh dear that was not needed. Instead of thinking, OK we will use BWD as he is clearly fit to ride, Swindon make up some feeble excuse about a sore wrist and bring in Kyle Newman. Cheating, pure and simple. To do such a thing was completely unnecessary and turns any fair minded supporter against them.

Cheating scum sound better?

Read what Foreverblue posted above, from BWD own website. Really p*ss poor from Swindon when they are scared of using their own rider.

Swindon cheats. Simple as that. Why they should be running scared I have no idea but BWD came back very well yesterday and this brings the sport into disrepute to be honest. Swindon must be so desperate. Hope Wolves stuff them out of sight in the final.

Of course there's nithing wrong. Swindon pretending he is sore so they bring on a wringer in Kyle Newman at reserve. Hang your heads in shame, Swindon. Clearly can't play fair.

Utter b*llocks and every Swindon fan knows it. Swindon are cheating, when they didn't need to. Utterly disgraceful.

Swindon are a bunch of effing cheats. BWD rode well yesterday, didn't pull out of his races and even beat Cook. Pure cheating from Rosco and Swindon to get a bigger advantage, even though they had one anyway. Shame on them.

As the days warms up the showers will develop. Pointless in saying what is happening right now. Forecasts predict that the showers will build and then start to fade late afternoon. BWD should have the beating of our reserves.

Doubt they will as its on tv and would cost too much extra. And as Swindon is not very far to come they will leave any call off to the last minute.

Don't think there's any doubt that all 14 riders will give 100% tomorrow night. Some will do better than expected and some less so, though through no lack of effort. Think Pirates will need at least a ten point lead to take to Blunsdon and it is probably out of our reach but the lads will give it all they have. If we come up short, so be it. We have nothing to lose and everything to gain. We are huge underdogs on this occasion and the table doesn't lie. Anything other than Swindon going through to the final will be classed as a huge shock to UK speedway. Go shock the speedway world, Pirates! We can do this!

Great couple of meetings. Woffinden was excellent and so was Milik. Now to complete the entertainment with Fake or Fortune on the bbc.

Vaculik fell on his own not touched ran out of room. Ref lenient if he is in the rerun. Wow! Just wow!

What drama! Blue should go!

All on the last heat. Meeting has really come alive after the home side looked like romping it.

Will KK show his Rye or Poole form?

Getting very tight. All on the next 2. Squeeky bum time for Gorzow fans. Pawlicki penalised himself. Terrible ref to stop it. Excluded but never touched tapes!
