SharpenRake 1,505 Posted June 21, 2023 (edited) This should be a cracker with Benjamin, Bomber and Ryan Douglas all flying at the moment. Could come down to the reserves. After some of the recent 'weather forecasts' for Ashfield not to mention the torrential rain at Hampden last night - great victory for Scotland - all eyes will be on the weather forecast and perhaps one will be accurate.

No sure on mpts average. Godfrey has a habit of booking odd guests at times in the past (broc at number 1 a few times couple years ago I seem to remember). Bit of a jaunt for a guest booking too, look at issued the enemy had getting anyone last week Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We did stream a couple of years ago but cost a fortune as they had to pay for the production, Edinburgh have in house volunteers doing it, if we could get volunteers to do it we would.

MPT average quite low for him! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The 8-day rule only applies to guest appearances, not appearances for your own team, so a Poole rider could guest for Scunthorpe this Friday then ride for Poole next Friday.

I looked at averages & fixtures & noticed Poole were there the following Friday so asked the question, mainly for 1 of the Cook brothers to guest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
