2ndbendbeerhut 1,781 Posted June 28, 2023 Hope the rain that has effected the u19 meeting at Birmingham doesn't also effect this. Would hate for the meeting to be postponed and then run with the top boys later in season once Polish season has finished 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flagrag 704 Posted June 28, 2023 Like most fans it is a rather disappointing with the final proposed lineup. As much as I would like it to be a Lions win on Thursday I have a feeling it could be a Belle Vue vs Sheffield final, If there is a bit of grip round the outside then I will go with a Belle Vue win Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iainb 5,022 Posted June 29, 2023 What I'd like to know is why have the riders that have "elected" to miss this meeting not sanctioned with a 7 day ban like Artem Laguta for electing to miss the Wolves league match. Who decides which meeting carries a sanction? If the Pairs doesn't but league matches do, why aren't they treated the same if they are "official" fixtures... what about the KO Cup? Is that official, does that carry a potential ban... what another fine mess they've gotten themselves into 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Doyle would have been in the Ippo pairing if his Polish fixture had not been rearranged for today after the weekend rain-off! I thought you would be pleased to be hosting a 'final' after last season!! 3 SGP riders including your own - whats not to get excited about?! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or pretend he was never asked in the first place. it's not a matter of what I would or wouldn't like to see and shopping riders it's about clear and transparent upholding of the rules to ensure sporting integrity... one of Phil Morris' remits. The question still remains unanswered what's the difference between a League, KO Cup & PL Pairs fixture... why do some carry bans and others don't?
