Done 47 years too, so her average is lower, meaning she fits... Have Russia got a Queen lurking somewhere? The Grand Prix wouldn’t have her so her options are limited, she might have no choice but to come here. Royalists will herald it as a return to power for the monarchy.

We’ll stick a dead man’s name on the trophy. Suggestion was nothing to do with stopping people complaining, thinking of a way to make the clubs make an effort to stage it. To pay tribute to Nigel seemed the best chance of making it happen? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not stick his name on a cup final from last year that didn’t get completed in a half-assed gesture. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

szkocjasid 3,042 Posted October 16, 2023 "We will field our 2023 side with Leicester building a team based on start of season averages and we will be announcing details of their side shortly" That seems quite unfair on Leicester, at first glance, especially with Poole being at home. But I guess Leicester could pick 7 riders who's averages have gone up? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
szkocjasid 3,042 Posted October 16, 2023 Should just allow Leicester to race with their full team, using Lion Cubs to fill gaps caused by Lawson racing for Poole & the banned Worrall imo. 1. Max Fricke 12.00 2. Drew Kemp 5.32 3. Justin Sedgmen 7.69 4. Jake Allen 7.16 5. Lewis Kerr 8.60 6. Ashton Boughen 2.00 7. Max Perry 2.00 Comes to 44.77 vs Poole's current limit of 45.55.
