Super Blue 616 Posted September 21, 2013 Lets hope it's not too bad then as I believe it's only a NL guest for the lowest average reserve ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,706 Posted September 21, 2013 All the best to Adam. Not a good day for Witches connections what with Tomas in theGP and Tay as well who I am told has broken his femur. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,706 Posted September 21, 2013 Fractured scaphoid I take it thats season over? Such a shame for Adam if it is. The experience of play off pressure in both leagues would be the ideal end to his first season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Super Blue 616 Posted September 22, 2013 (edited) Really sorry about the extent of Adams injury and I hope he makes a speedy recovery to ride for us again asap .

Had Enough 233 Posted September 23, 2013 Right.... Thanks. Just a thing I've got about reports in newspapers, etc. saying that someone has broken his/her wrist - as if they've only got one ... I spoke to Mike Bacon about this a while ago, and he said it had never crossed his mind! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Super Blue 616 Posted September 23, 2013 (edited) Am I correct in my assumption that now Adam has sadly broken his wrist that we can only use a NL guest for him ? If so what is the criteria that determines the level of rider we can draw on ? Side issue , does anyone know if Morten is ok after his withdrawal from the PLRC on Sunday ?

Super Blue 616 Posted September 23, 2013 Didn't Josh Bates guest for Adam earlier this season and do quite well ? I think someone of his Ilk would fit the bill as most of the other better NL guys have already achieved a 4+ average . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crescent girl 1,905 Posted September 23, 2013 I think someone of his Ilk would fit the bill as most of the other better NL guys have already achieved a 4+ average . You will find that surprisingly few have established +4 at PL level. It is a good rule (a shock in itself, that) as it is designed to prevent "experienced" guys dropping into NL and then filling their boots with PL bookings. Moving forward, Liam Carr raced against Witches at Edinburgh ten days or so again and collected 5+2 from three races -- book him up quick! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
