I think 4,3,2,0 is a better way of doing it. A lot of people know nothing about bonus points and don't care about them.

Let me guess. Tried for one year, then scrapped because it didn't really work well. Doing that is fine for speedway nerds like us forum users, but it would confuse an awful lot of people I think.

When were bonus points included in the team score? I'm not sure I'd go along with that idea. It would make scoring more complicated to understand and not everybody fully understands bonus points.

I don't have them personally. You could always post a topic in Years Gone By. It's amazing what old details people sometimes come up with in there when asked!

I'm guessing that's when Uncle Tim took over and pretty much won the match for them.

A UK visa wouldn't allow him to work in Poland now anyway.

Is he resident here during the winter or does he go back to Australia? If he goes back to Australia every winter he can't apply for British citizenship. He would need to live here permanently for 6 years before being able to do that.

I don't know where people get the idea from that a UK visa would allow someone to work in Poland. It wouldn't. He would need a seperate visa for Poland. What is the theory behind the claims of Holder riding here for a visa. What other reason does he want a visa for?

Poole can't have Holder back unless King's Lynn release him before the end of July. If they do then they are mugs.

Great that Swindon are picking up assets. Let's just hope there's a stadium for them to ride in. I guess Lakeside are clinging onto Zach and Adam. Would love to see this side kept together and allowed to develop.

Last night, heat 13. Nick Morris rides between two Leicester riders to join his partner on a 5-1. Nigel Pearson yells: "Oh no!!!". Slightly annoying if you are a Swindon fan.

it's because heat 15 is a nominated riders race, so Bachelor had to be replaced by another rider who is eligible for heat 15.

Can someone point out to these commentators that Swindon also lost 2 riders during the course of the meeting. Great last race there. Made up for the TR cock-up.

Swindon now a 5 man team btw.

That's what I thought. Not what they are saying on tv though.

If Batch can't ride is it a reserve out or another nom rider?

Fair play to Leicester who are really getting stuck in If Morris had been a TR and won heat 9 it would be level now.

The most Swindon can gain from deliberately losing the race is one point. If Nilsson wins here Leicester have gained.

Morris chucking the race here. Bad tactics all round.

Is it ok to fence the opposition then? Further proof here that we cocked up on the tactical.

I know that.

Yeah. If Morris doesn't win we are stuffed anyway so put him on it. Rosco is thinking about 8-1 I suspect.

Best way to get to know about Cardiff coaches is to join the Swindon supporters Facebook page. It tends to get arranged through there.

Yes, although it is already full.

We originally thought we had a chance, but your arguments that Swindon are rubbish were so convincing that we believed you.
