It says concussion on updates so will be similar to Palin on age, 12 days.

I thought previously the Pay Off places had been placed in the calendar, it's quite conceivable if we get a wet spell that the Lions won't be riding from the 6th of August until early October by the time the other teams sort their fixtures out and of course if we finish in the top 2... not ideal

Glasgow in a similar position, or possibly worse as they are out the KO Cup. Last home league meeting v Brum  5 August and it looks possible they could finish second so it would be a play off semi next, possibly not before the third Friday in September, a gap of six weeks.

Summer Trophy Northern Round meetings are in late July and Birmingham is the last home for the team until the playoffs, quite a big gap.

No. Possible concussion. Withdrawal was precautionary. There is a difference.

We still await further news. But if if is treated as concussion then you are right about 12 days.

He was allowed in the re-run with no immediate symptoms of concussion, but then felt sick and dizzy in the pits and so was withdrawn from the meeting with concussion.   He's therefore on a mandatory 12 day suspension now.

It's OK though as we have a ready made replacement in Connor Coles who's just been binned off by Scummy

I think you will find you cannot have a guest for them so it will be RR

Even though he's a Lion Cub, poor "old" Connor Coles... can't catch a break anywhere!

Don't think Leicester are obliged to take up a facility. If they went the 'no facility' route they would have to track a 2.00 Ave unattached rider, like .., er Connor Coles

 

However in this situation no sane and reasonable person would expect anything other than r/r.

They could of course name Coles as number 8 and allow him to take 3 of the RR rides and let the other go to the rider with the average above Dan.

Realistically Connor is unlikely to get any better than what he is now (in view of his age) and seems to struggle at the next level up. Whilst there may be more to the situation than we know, the way Scunny have treated him after just one month however is awful. He must be thinking is it all really worth it. I hope I’m wrong though and that he battles on continuing to do something I assume he enjoys.
