What happens if Jake Mulford has a great start to the season, doubling his average and becomes the darling of the Aces fans due to his all action style, how do they justify dropping him. Same at Poole where young Cairns is rumoured to be going.
Maybe the other teams could up their game and put on competitive meetings to fill up their schedules Run the 4TT in two groups, the top two in each group qualify for the final, all four teams in the final hold one meeting. Run the final over one week, perhaps the same week as SON/SWC as not many CL riders likely to be involved.
I'm not one to exaggerate but over the last couple of months I've heard about a million billion times that one of the Aces redheads is off to pastures new.
Maybe all the clubs could agree to try one meeting in April and one in May. Charging £15 entry, I know many people say its a £10 sport but I feel a pound a heat would make sense.
Then the clubs advertise the cheaper entry to see if it can encourage any newcomers to return at the normal price.
Cheaper entry price for the two meetings could be built into ST costs.
Actively contact by email, anyone who bought tickets in advance for the cheap entry meetings, with details of the next meetings.
They were checking his crash helmet after the crash. I don't know if it was confiscated, but if it was, as it was damaged, surely the concussion protocols should kick in.
If you've had a big enough hit to damage the helmet protecting your head then your head must have has a clout.
IRR could have possibly served Poole better on the night.
Why not have the reserves as the next two riders in the qualification process. Anyone could pull-out due to illness on the day or a rider getting injured in his 1st ride. So one of the reserves replaces him. Then bring in a track reserve to replace him, but as second reserve.
Hope lbw hasn't started travelling, and has refundable travel and hotel.
Just went to send him a PM to alert him to the calloff, he hasn't been on the forum since last friday, hope he's ok
