Rising star, doesn’t matter for guesting

Dan isn't the Rising Star in the Leicester team is he? thought that was Joe?

Has someone dropped a clanger?

He’s a rising star, doesn’t matter if he’s selected as one for a team or not, he’s a 1*, for what it’s worth, same as Sheffield using Bickley as a guest for Bates as rising star, Bickley isn’t anyones rising star, but on the list

So basically,,, a rising star could rise to no.1 for his club and then guest for a same value rising star at say no.7 for another team. Ye just couldn't make it up, now a know where the government get they're ideas from. ;)

But it does matter to Leicester and Plymouth as they meet on 27 July and Dan will now (correctly) move into the top 5, whereas he would have stayed at reserve had the incorrect date been used.

Newcastle could always appeal to the SCB, as they don’t mind arranging re-runs when Redcar are involved.

See... Everyone criticized when he was here but miss him now hes gone

Not all of us... I may be the Terrace Grumbler but I always had time for Ludde and wish we had him at no. 5 now.

There's no hiding from the fact we took a pasting yesterday but those of us who remember the season with Rene Knudsen will know that this sort of situation hurts but generally things do improve...

Also, remember the season when the promotion took the season ticket money and then withdrew from the league without a wheel being turned - compare that to the very honourable way our present promoter has behaved and be thankful we have a team at BP at all.

Back to yesterday...  I enjoyed watching Charles Wright,  Kyle Howarth and BB,  and it was a decent way to spend a sunny Sunday afternoon. 

(Doug, is that positive enough for you?)

Whilst it might seem a crazy rule for the other team, all these rising stars are young lads that need as much track time as possible. Someone like Dan now on a 6pt ave probably wouldn't get many guest bookings as you'd have any 6pt AVE rider to choose from

Agree regarding track time,,, but that's not what I meant.  In theory, Dan could end up being no.1 at Leicester, but could say replace/guest for Archie at Newcastle as a 1 star?

So we can use Dan on Sunday for  example instead of Archie who hurt his fingers in the workshop a few days earlier.
