lisa-colette 6,032 Posted October 16, 2021 They both did. Just shows how well Hume has done this season, now he is at 2. Basso still getting used to tracks don't forget. First time at Leicester tonight. Plus Hume is hardly the first RS to move into the 1-5! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No you are right Lisa but the rule is not right , young Thompson at Leicester is a prime example.He is a talented young lad who should also of been protected and the likes of Cook, Kennedy,Basso should not get the chance to find there feet at reserve.I believe the likes of Thompson, Hume ( ect) should only move up into the top five in there second season. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I take your point and I agree although we would have won by a bigger margin in this meeting had Hume been at reserve. I will be a very happy Pirate if he is back next season.

Thompson is in the main team because of Leicester’s team changes bringing in Anderson and Kennedy,he was reserve before and because Kennedy has not scored that well in the main body of the team briefly and as a reserve.

I think that given his scoring rate at reserve (5.91) I think it likely he would have pushed Bates or Proctor into reserve had they remained in the team and continued their 2021 form.

At the end of the day Blue all riders have to make the step up sometime in a dog/eat /dog world.Really pleased for Danyon that he has made real progress this year his average for next year could be a hindrance for him hope not.

Dan Thompson isn't Leicester's RS though, so regardless of the rule he'd have moved up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
