Mr Blobby 2,690 Posted August 3, 2023 Thomson out with a mystery illness, been in hospital since Wednesday for tests. Guest options not great at all. Could potentially be a massacre now this one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

After all the underdog prevailed tonight against the Andorran globetrotters. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GhostRider 24 Posted August 3, 2023 Not so good news about Kye, hope they find out the cause and is on the mend soon. looking at the riders available(we have up too 6.28 due to 5% increase for home guset) i would go with Jordan Jenkins having scored 5+2 from 4 against us on his visit with Oxford, if not available due to prior engagements then i would go for R/R as at home.

Looking at potential guests I assume it will be a guest for Paco and R/R for Kye allowing Josh one of the R/R rides. If available Cam Heeps may be the best bet or James Pearson after his performance last week or a rejuvenated Dan Thompson? They were just mentioning on the preview show that Kye was the only rider not to miss a match through injury this season -and even then Paco said Kye had ridden through an injury. Get well soon, Kye.

Gotta agree, r/r for Kye (so Josh gets an extra ride) seems the obvious choice. Possible guests for Paco: Gilkes, Bowtell or Dan T?
