Poland do as well but they have blank weeks to fit in any un-run meetings the weeks before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bomber was the only one left from the three guest amigo's.... Needed someone to step up and Josh has done that just fine.. Honourable mention to Tom Brennan too, early on in his "guest career" obviously, but he seems to have taken to it well.... If MPT stays injury free next season, he too will be back to add to the "guest list"... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That was the point I was making … indeed, what’s the point of fixed race nights if they’re not going to race regularly, as in Poland? There was a time that people claimed the clubs couldn’t survive without home meeting every week - Poland has them every other week, while the Prem teams often go two or three weeks between home fixtures.
