It was good Tim , another regular that’s always a good read.

Mine arrived on time today and what a read it is. Some great stories this week, I particularly liked the Castagna, Tatum and Refs stories and the potted history of the KO Cup is an excellent series. The FIM supremo certainly had some choice words for the U.K. Promoters and to be fair a lot of what he said made sense.

All I got was a computer generated general reply mentioning COVID problems. Their complaint system is utter rubbish a bit like their deliveries at the moment.

I must be honest and say I have been tempted to try it, Phil have you ever thought of giving subscribers one or two free digitals to try it when renewing annual subscriptions. As an afterthought what percentage of subscribers are digital.

I think their is enough comment to suggest local sorting offices are holding back magazines when they are under pressure with big demand, our postmen mentioned that that other weekly magazines were at least two days late this week. What makes it worse is the only thing my Postman delivered today was four pieces of junk mail.

It’s pretty bad in the Peterborough area, myself and several local friends are all still waiting for this weeks copy, which considering we are about 10-15 miles away from the printers just shows how hopeless RM is.

Mine has been back to its regular Thursday for a few weeks now, some great stories in recent weeks.

The incident was on August 15th 2005, the star match report mentions it following Panthers 46-44 win at Poole on the night.

It was JBJ just not in 2007, more likely 2006 when he scored 10 in a Panthers win at Wimborne Road.

11th July 2007 was Poole v Peterborough, JBJ wasn’t in either team .

JBJ didn’t ride for Panthers in 2007

Hopefully, and with a better choice of when to run it we might well not get the complete farce tonight’s match was. That meeting was a dreadful advert for the sport and should never have started.

I think it’s clear some RM sorting offices work differently to others judging by the comments on this thread.

Must be honest the post about the postman telling one of his customers they hold the magazines back sounded a bit too close to the truth, for years mine has been Thursday pretty much for years, this year it’s been all over the place, Friday Saturday and even a Monday. I have thought about a digital copy but I do like a printed version.

Last two weeks my issue has arrived with Friday’s post, it’s irritating especially as I only live 15 miles away from where it’s printed. Its very notably got less reliable since plastic wrapped as opposed to a plain brown envelope.
