Fair play to Charles, he kept his cool admirably. That’s her job. I’d be disappointed if she didn’t get a reaction 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OveFundinFan 4,142 Posted July 18, 2023 As was said by KT (I think it was him), if you got to watch a replay 4 times before you can notice a slight move then their was no movement. The 2 decisions were bad decisions that could have cost BV the match, and definitely affected Wrights earnings last night. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A certain British champion a few years back would not have won, if he wasn't doing exactly the same micro movement. As for loss of earnings, if you got warned once, why would you do it again. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SPEEDY69 1,260 Posted July 18, 2023 19 hours ago, Col said: Doyle should know better by now. If one ruder steams under another rider and makes contact, if the other rider goes down. The referee is highly likely to exclude the inside diver, regardless of how much space on track there is. Bewley knew it and went down when IMO he could have stayed on. Wright was harsh on Sayfutdinov in heat 14, if Sayfutdinov had gone down no one would have complained. But Wright never moved in heat 15! Brennan & Blodorn won their meeting for the Aces IMO, must have massively out performed their Witches counterparts. But haven't looked at the actual scores. Hopefully that's a small scare & a kick up the butt for the Aces Witches problem for me is Riss, he simply isn't competitive, barely contributes. Except when Doyle is the outside rider. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He seems to have gone to the Frank Ebdon school of refereeing... he's always pulling races back when there has been no visible infringement Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
