Many, many thousands more followers not attending than those who actually will... And it will be all down to the ludicrous way it is ran, and the ridiculous cost to get in for no more than 16 mins actual entertainment...

Bagpuss 10,683 Posted September 13, 2021 Take a bow Connor Mountain, that score puts one or two of his team mates to shame. Riss needs to be gone for 2022 unless he is on a bargain average. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TJ, Lewi, Erik and Ben with 17 between them, not good enough. Edited September 13, 2021 by Bald Bloke 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Craig did a very good job also, even though he didn't win a race was close all night and took two great passes from Dan to beat him. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's 100% not the rule. Of course you're welcome to quote this rule that you think exists.... but it doesn't. A 28 day contract is for a maximum of 28 days, just as the other riders are on season-long contracts until 31 October, but they can still be changed during the season.

You are the one wrong, if replace a rider for 28 days temporary replacement you can’t bring the rider back in within the 28 days, that’s been the case for years.

You can't bring the rider back for 28 days as has been said by everyone on here.It was even mentioned on the TV match last night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KIRKYLANE 534 Posted September 15, 2021 Just watched heat 14.. super race it must be Connor Mountain’s best score in the Premier league. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pinny 2,536 Posted September 15, 2021 Riss has been pathetic this season , surely Lynn wont want him back? I can however seen Edinburgh snapping him up in the second div on his low average. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
