If his licence is suspendd he cant ride anywhere - how do you think the Poles get away with stopping their riders travelling to certain fixtures Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Utter disgrace. How can the line up be changed. Team declarations go in days beforehand. Although perhaps the appeal was already in and the typical mushroom PR was just in motion and he was always named..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But then football is a REAL sport!!!! Bans have been increased in the past when appealed, could quite easily decrease though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would this not be the same though as a double up rider in previous years having a clash but the meeting he should have ridden in getting rained off and he has time to get to the other meeting for which he wasn’t declared? I’d have thought if a rider in a team’s 1-7 becomes available for whatever reason then that should override any facility already declared. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probably down to Buster making his money go three ways as much as anything else. Anyway coping without one top rider rather than two is quite different, but now Cook is riding Id have gone with R/R as it worked well last week. I think you probably know the answer to your last sentence! I keep forgetting RL is out as well, don't know why! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It might well end up costing him more in the long run, but he is not breaking any rules with the appeal. Edited August 15, 2019 by Bald Bloke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
