It's been 5 years - time to move on and get over it

Very welcome to have Batch (please)

You would expect Morris to be a definite with Doyle and Zengi possibles. I hope all 3 are in the team and like most fans hope that Batch moves on. PS - It's Mikkel Bech nowadays

I was stating facts too but you chose to rubbish them as they didn't fit with the point you were trying to make!

Another wooden spoon struggle then?

With respect - Greaves was gash and Rose had a bad year not just at Swindon so you have put 2 and 2 together and got 7 BTW what did BV do to Worrall in last year's final? He wasn't that bad at Swindon!

Couldn't do any worse than Lewis Rose so I think he improves the reserve department

I don't think that's the case. As an example Aaron Summers has a 6.8 average and no way can he be considered a HL so no reason not to sign a second string with an inflated average - you could even go to D Watt on his average and further if anyone is available. Just using these as examples. Of course Hans is a HL!

Who are you? Where's Sid gone

I was replying to PoP and he had Holder in his team

Yes but you can only have 3 riders from the HL list - you already have Holder, Buzz and Hans. So it would be a second string with a high average.

Good to see him back http://www.swindonadvertiser.co.uk/sport/14025165.Sedg_is_Just_the_man_for_the_Robins/

Not an inspiring signing IMHO

Not called Slow Freddie for nothing - although he has a bargain average. However, he has been on the slide for a few years now so can't see a positive change in form.

What is your problem?? Bradford Ace made the point that sides were going to have 6 point riders at No1 and GRW123 said "and a 6 pointer at reserve" to which I replied that Wolves almost have that already with Howarth. Then Mr Pedant (you) started. I'm not interested in trying to score points - especially over something as stupid as this! Tell you what, please put me on ignore because you are doing my head in now - after all the anti-Swindon cr@p last season and now this. Merry Christmas

Since forever

Wolves almost have a 6 pointer in Howarth

Yes very funny paperboy! As champions you should get last pick!

So - answer this for me - how did Poole pick before Swindon??

Didn't quite go to that plan last year (although it could have until they got Kylmakorpi on board). Bees were competitive and could easily have topped the league and been in the final.

Batchelor Edit - I see you beat me to it.

FTRs were/are on a fixed rate. It makes sense that as he is no longer an FTR that he gets the going rate for someone of his skill/experience - whatever that may be. Surely everyone wants to get paid what they believe they are worth - why should a speedway rider be any different?

Well that's KL screwed then

More stench than Billingsgate Market!

The draft has been unfair since its inception and KL benefitted massively in the first year with Lewis and Lewis, last year it was Poole and Coventry and this year it looks like Wolves, Leicester and Poole (thus far). The while thing was ill-conceived and poorly executed - like everything the BSPA come up with!
