Never mind who's riding, who is the referee?

At least this week there won't be any TV cameras. Ignorance can be bliss sometimes.

 

 

 

Ronnie Allan at Somerset. Tony Steele at Kings Lynn.

Can anyone explain what Charles Wrights average is?

BSPA has it at 6.19 and BWD is 5.22. Even allowing for the 5% that is way above????

Charles Wright is is 5.27

And remember, all the 5% moans are completely self inflicted. No point moaning about it when Poole had Ellis booked for the second leg. It all comes down to Allit booking Ellis for the first leg that caused the mess.

Hopefully the rules should have been changed to allow 5% home and away.

Gary may has said he can't use Wright at Lynn.. Only thing I can think of is there is no +5% away rule ! Seems that didn't last long?

Unless anyone knows another reason ?

the opportunity has presented itself for Charles to come in and do a job for us. I can't use him away but am delighted to have Paul Starke with us on Thursday

As has been said previously Poole cheated in the final by using Nick Morris in the second leg.  They had an opportunity to win it fair and square but they chose not to.  They can crow all they want but at the end of day, Nick’s score should be expunged and KL are therefore the true champions.

excuse me if im wrong, but all promoters agree at conference the principal for business reasons that teams have to win at home,hence, give the home team a strong guest

No !   that's not how it was described to me.   I was told,  by a high ranking BSPA individual,   because a rider would be more accustomed to riding  on his home track than a guest, it was therefore agreed all guests replacing an home rider would be granted an additional 5%  CMA to offset this advantage..      When riding an away track, a rider would not be so accustomed and therefore the 5% was not applicable.... :t:

Absolute mountain to climb yet again. No way Lynn will claw it back tomorrow with the same guest reserve.:(
