Four of those are under threat (Monmore, Perry Barr and Armadale, and Sheffield), leaving just two where the sports still seem to co-exist Kevin Boothby owned Oxford and Mildenhall 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Makes sense. No different to a criminal court. If you admit your guilt you’ll get a more lenient sentence for honesty (and saving time and expense on hearings, admin etc). As for second tests in this case, both samples need to be taken at the same time for the testing process to maintain integrity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted July 28, 2023 (edited) So on BSN tonight is was stated that if Brum make the playoffs, they are looking at bringing in a rider who would turn them into title favourites. So who are they talking to? And what rider could turn them into a team that could beat Poole over two legs? Not even Zmarzlik could manage that!
