Edinburgh v Birmingham 3/9/21 7.30pm

Recommended Posts

We need Richie back. I think we saw enough from Kemp and to a lesser extent Rowe to suggest they’ll be an improvement on what we have had. Hopefully we sneak into the play-offs but can’t have any argument if we are pipped; too many iffy home results.

Anyone heard how long Richie will be out?

And Birmingham will be thinking the same as they are there after us.

Sure at the time, medical advice was 6 weeks before considering riding again.

We were obviously robbed by a cheating referee { a total disgrace to his profession}_.....but zero points from James Shanes is unacceptable....seems to be playing it safe now that he's a new parent ???

playing it safe?? zero points = zero pay !!  He had four heavy falls last week that left him sore and black + blue and fell again in his first ride at Edinburgh . He always gives 100% but the Edinburgh track just didn't suit his riding style last night

He hasn't cheated but honestly an experienced ref like McGregor shouldn't be making a mistake in a last heat decider like that. It could have such abig impact on us missing out on play offs you never know. Hope the SCB review his.performance
