Paulco 7,101 Posted September 9, 2014 Been a bit of a damp squib . Too weather affected leading to the present spate of double headers , too many foreign riders disappearing over to the continent at the weekend and missing their club's fixtures , and the doubling up/down thing has been a total shambles . 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Robinh88 571 Posted September 9, 2014 Clubs who sign pish riders like Palovaara and Konopka should be fined as they are mugging of their own fans 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

montie 1,273 Posted September 12, 2014 Not quite sure what any one can do about most things that we moan about really The weather..not alot anyone can do about that but I do feel meetings need to be given more of a chance to run Double uppers---not sure there is any option really as there just isn't enough quality riders about Crap over seas riders---- again who else can teams use..with points limit in place you will always get teams needing to use them and a certainly don't see any young Brits coming in to replace them that are good enough Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
