A month by month/match by match written account of the Swindon Robins speedway team's assault on the Elite League title in 2007. This was the year that the Robins put together a side that was immediately named as favourites to win the title for the first time since 1967. With the Abbey Stadium - home of the Robins since 1949 - under threat of closure, hopes were high from the offset that the forty-year title drought could finally come to an end. There was, however, one team in particular who were determined to put a stop to Swindon's title aspirations - the Coventry Bees. This book follows the Robins' 2007 season from beginning to end - from the opening challenge victories against Reading through to a traumatic triple-final finale against the Bees. Includes a 24 page heat-by-heat breakdown of the 2007 Elite League final.
