JanAndersen 818 Posted September 4, 2021 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
