Okay, let's take Steve for example. He rode for his Polish team today and apparently he is riding for Poole on Weds as that was always down in the fixture list. So a 2 day holiday, which unless it is at home both days would be travelling. Dougy more understandable as he not riding again til Friday. Or maybe not, he could still have a 3 day holiday after riding for Wolves on Mon! I'm prob bring mean but they do have Nov, Dec,Jan, Feb to have any holidays!! 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2ndbendbeerhut 1,781 Posted July 23, 2023 There’s no facility available for Ryan Douglas or Steve Worrall though who are simply on holiday. Surely "no facility " should mean just that. blanks on team sheet.... As for simply on holiday.... how many fans will do the same... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
