Too right there. Mine only came to life after heat 15

I think that is correct although personally I dont think the 8 day rule should apply to the home team. A home rider is there every week but a guest can only be used if there is more than a 8 day gap.

Certainly was! Hope for a big crowd Thursday!!! No faulty air horns before heat1

It may well happen everywhere these days, but in any business if your performance is poor and you're seen to be sat on your phone instead of working you'll get very short shrift from most managers!

Yes, Poole get all the breaks

No faulty witches flags and scarfs waving though! More of the same Thursday, more flags, more scarfs! It’s nice to have some waving and create an atmosphere !

So I am right in saying Bears can't use Allen on Friday or Sunday due to 8 day rule. Nor Scott on Friday due to concussion?? Am I?

I’m not sure that was the smartest thing to do in all honesty. Publicly having a pop at your riders on live TV isn’t going to have a great impact on team spirit IMO. More likely to have pis sed them off. I’m not convinced that doesn’t happen in every pits either. We only knew about it because Dickson told us. Wouldn’t mind betting that a few on the other side of the pits were doing exactly the same. He can be a bit over dramatic for me your manager.

They’re split second decisions though for a rider. He had his wheels in line and opened the throttle and was making a pass. Stick or twist? Keep it pinned and make a pass in a grand final, or shut off and lose the opportunity. To be fair track was a little tricky early doors, quite deep and heavy. Had that been later in the meeting when it dried and slickened off a bit more, he could have made that move stick. Certainly don’t blame the boy for giving it a go.

There was a lot of faulty air horns last night 😂😂

I thought it was Basso lined up to replace Riss?

Tbf to Leicester, it’s not likely to be a great atmosphere when it’s the away team doing all the overtaking.

No they do seem unlucky, it looks a very well built team and should win things but something always seems to go wrong, Gavin seems a nice guy too, maybe they were waiting on Riss because he could of come back and Redcar probably could not afford someone like Nagel.

Firstly they ARE walking the league. They pi$$ed the semi final and they’ll pi$$ the final. Secondly, no not everyone DOES get injuries. Some are more fortunate than others. It’s pretty unfortunate to lose not just one, but your TWO most important riders at the exact same time isn’t it? Ipswich lost the biggest weapon in the entire league when Thompson got injured. At reserve, he was scoring heatleader points on a regular basis. And Doyle had started the season very well after almost a year out, until he dislocated his hip and hasn’t been the same rider since.

It’s funny, we got knocked out the cup to your advantage 😉Brennan won you the cup

I'm sure its not as simple as that. As has been said they had a deal which fell through late in the day, pretty sure Parr was on an episode of No Brakes No Fear at the time and explained it. No doubt they would prefer seven riders rather than having to source guests. They never seem to have much luck with injuries/illness unfortunately.

Glasgow got Nagel so there are riders out there willing to come here.

Think Parr said they had a replacement for Riss but deal fell through or could have been the cut off date,but something stopped it happening.

Oh ok so he can ride against Glasgow sunday, means they still need a guest for Friday for him. I think Gavin Parr said he had Friday sorted but was struggling with the rule book and guests for Sunday so its just Sunday he needs a guest for Riss who they should have replaced, he has been out a long time.

Sat is what he said on BSN

Those that were on their phones should be embarrassed. No wonder Dickson gave them a dressing down.

When is Jody allowed to race again?

With the averages etc there are not that many options regarding lower average riders,there is just in a gulf between top end and bottom end riders IMO.2 different levels in 1 match.

I would imagine that he stuck by Kemp as based on the September averages he has put the largest percentage on his starting average. Be interesting to see who the Supporters Club give most improved rider to this year as last year Becker won the award and was the only Lion to reduce his average throughout the season!
