semion 2,192 Posted April 19, 2018 Only Suggested Auty as there now seems to be a very strong tie up with Scunthorpe. Plus he was with us before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Does it work like that Baggy, or does the guest just take the place and position of the man he is replacing ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 10,687 Posted April 19, 2018 Apologies, I thought we were talking about new signings. I could be wrong but I think it's R/R only for second strings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You're right, only r/r for 2nd strings if only one missing, if both missing guest + r/r. Guest if doubling up rider missing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thecoombdog 2,362 Posted April 19, 2018 Well its Thursday in Swindon and the weather is absolutely mint!!! A rarity if ever there is one! Looking forward to the Morris vs NKI clashes. They have had some good races down the years at our place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gotcha, we were at cross purposes on that one. So As we cannot use a guest for Rose, I hope Buster/Dale/Robin will get a short term replacement in. After last nights start to the season lets keep the pot bubbling. A decent rider, but as important is to get the right character in. No more Folders or Brat's in. Let other's have the 'pleasure' of those types. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bald Bloke 3,281 Posted April 19, 2018 No bones broken for Rose. UPDATE | NOTHING BROKEN for Lewis Rose but he has strained muscles and ligaments in the wrist so R/R covers his rides at Swindon tonight.See you back very soon, Lewis 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

g13webb 4,254 Posted April 19, 2018 (edited) Losing Kerr from reserve could happen at the end of the month anyway?? Edited April 19, 2018 by g13webb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder if R Lambert is going to be better than usual at Swindon, he did very well last night and we need the young Brits to progress. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mattfordfan 286 Posted April 19, 2018 Swindon by 10. Tonight we will find out whether Swindon are as good as last night's result suggests or was we so bad we made Swindon look like Unia Leszno. KL need Kerr to have a blinder to get a point out of this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought this years scores were added on to their existing to update their CMA each month. So if as you say, that is the case am I to believe all riders have to do likewise and all of them receive a new average after they have rode in 4H & 4A. NB: Always a difficult place to go and be successful. i would like to think we are good enough to get a point, but a safe meeting with no reoccurrence of last weeks accidents will do...
