cinderfella 865 Posted June 9, 2022 8 hours ago, Ryan555 said: But what would you rather see R/R every week or a side with a full 7 ? Because with the availability of riders riding in Europe and having other matches in the same league and then trying to get someone who is the correct fit average wise it is highly unlikely that you will end up finding a guest if you bring in a rule like that In the 3 scheduled matches last night there were 6 guests and 2 r/r in place. The sport loses credibility with every turn of a wheel. Changes need making 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When we came back to League racing in 2006, we burst Plymouth's bubble with 2 great teams in 06 & 07 winning almost everything. 19 hours ago, Mike0310 said: All stems back to the conference days,and how there promoter seems to run the sport his way and his way only. Godfrey was not even on the board in the conference days so could not run the sport his way. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Careful Mike, you might get yourself banned from the forum & we will miss your banter. One of our fans called a poster a be## ##d on Friday night & subsequently got banned. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Changes need making Why not let other team members take more than one r/r ride.Say if your number one was missing,let your numbers 3and5 take two of his rides each. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All non declared riders go into a "guest riders pot" but limited to number of appearances per team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the 6 man teams are a very realistic prospect given the current situation regarding availability of heat leaders Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tosh1218 588 Posted June 9, 2022 Brexit hasn’t helped rider availability and the number of Aussie & American rider numbers are down compared to years ago Plus this is my first post since my 5 day ban on here ,so won’t be responding to a certain Leicester fan 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jaizer 2,853 Posted June 9, 2022 Whilst I don't disagree with 6 man teams, I think make it more difficult for younger riders coming through as no reserve position as such. Was looking through some programs from 97 last time was 6 man teams and were no heat 2/8/12/14 kind of heats. Suppose that could be created but certainly no "easy" heats and would always be up against a HL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
