I'm surprised club's don't restrict their rider's from guesting as they do just in case of injury. Is there still a rule where a rider can't guest for the same team within a week or wotever it is(was)......Tiswas now that's wot it is not guesting! This is not a pop at Bomber just tongue in cheek general banter. Wouldn't like to be supporting Wroclaw or Sayfutdinov's Polish team, rider replacement being used all season......yawn yawn . Teams in British speedway need to be cut to 6 or even 5, and av a better share of heat leaders. Anyways ...... Poole vs Berwick I'm thinking this will be Nathan's time to really shine as he as he as got loads of potential avin watched him from his early days at Rye House. He rode in a junior meeting before, yes before, Rockets ironically took on the Pirates live on TV. Wonder if Middlo spotted him then as well Edited May 16, 2022 by Turnip Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lisa-colette 6,035 Posted May 16, 2022 Guesting for Sheffield tonight as well, he might need Weds night off for rest at this rate! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm thinking the BSPA should bring in a rule that restricts riders, for example, from guesting more than twice in a week even if it's different teams Errrrrmmmm, but better not because then it will become silly as soon as they get their meddling hands on it!

Bandits4eva 1,003 Posted May 16, 2022 If we hit 33 here and come away with no more injuries then I’ll be pleased (That’s no criticism of the Poole track… just our stinking luck so far this year ) I do hope we put on a show of some sort.. luck just hasn’t been our friend this season so far!

We didn't even get to 60 against Newcastle! Maybe between 50 and 55 at most. But @Skidder1 are those just the guests at Plymouth or are they for both meetings?

So definitely not as black and white as Ray makes out! 52-38. Those guests are prob not the best round Poole and not as strong as the original line up imo. Getting a few Glasgow ones in would have been a bit better as mentioned earlier! Now saying that Thomsen will get a max lol. Also good practice for them as Edinburgh and Leicester are our next home meetings after Berwick! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe you can ask him to go to Mr Ford and say he wants a Newcastle level team for next season. Then be plenty close home meetings to attend. Sure that make him very happy...

Also good practice for them as Edinburgh and Leicester are our next home meetings after Berwick! For once we agree! Was far better racing in our comfortable win over Berwick than in closer meetings with Edinburgh and Plymouth. Thomson definitely a talent but a bit up and down just now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
