Yearbyred 1,104 Posted September 29, 2021 Agree, can’t blame Edinburgh for using the system as it currently stands to get a good replacement for Kemp. It’s the rule that’s the issue, as it has been all season. The rules mean the Bears have to have 3 of MPT’s rides covered by riders whose averages are well over 3 below his average.

A bit fairer rather than being weakened. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Who decides Peterboroughs title challenge was more important than redcars? How do you come to that idea. He's broken two fingers, so you are saying that even if he doesn't ride for Panthers he will still be Ok to ride fro Redcar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was Rob Lyon interview on TV which he said he will need time off the bike to be fit for Monday. Hence saying he shouldn't be riding for Redcar Friday and Sunday.

Should be safe enough, but question is when will it be run? Edinburgh occasionally run on Saturdays but imagine kemp still be away and MPT not available Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is a ridiculous rule but still a rule and Yes I doubt I would pleased if this was other way about but it is not the team’s fault. Kemp was fantastic last time at Armadale and is a big miss. Feel for Redcar with MPT situation. We have suffered after Nathan retired and couldn’t use Lawson as a guest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
