The commentators on BSN stressed that rain was forecast so they expected the meeting to be rushed through. Then they have an interval and guess what the rain arrives and the meeting abandoned
You can't compare speedway with football. Football teams have squads to cover such issues, they also don't use guests. Also remember riders are self employed, they don't get 'transferred'. I can understand why we wouldn't be allowed to sign a rider from a club that isn't going to make the play-offs but why stop a rider who isn't already riding in the uk from joining the club. A new rider generates publicity using guests generates adverse or no publicity.
Just had a look at the comments on the updates forum. Can't believe the comments from non Tigers fans. They seem to think Glasgow will get 30 + points or even more
Some comments are suggesting that you should use current form for selecting the riders to take part in this year's GP qualifiers rather than from a meeting from last year. Yet the qualifiers from this year's GP qualifying meetings qualify for next year's GP Series. By their logic next year's qualifiers should be picked based on their form next year and not on qualifiers this year.
If he was on average watch why did he pass Mario in heat 1 when he had no chance of winning the race. He would have got paid the same with a bonus point and could have also advised Mario after the race where he was going wrong, having followed him around.
Lambert beat Kilma 3 times and Joe Thompson twice passing both in heat 8 when guesting for us earlier this year. Winning at home is a must. Currently if Mario has to ride abroad we can get a 5 point guest. When his average drops we will be struggling to find any guest. Mario appears to be a quiet sort of guy not out going like Basso and Nagel. So does he sit quietly and just worry about his lack of scoring? Lambert on the other hand is outspoken and clearly a good team man. We only have 8 meetings left home and away, can we risk not making a change and as someone has already said with Leon and Kyle's averages increasing it has to be like for like. So unless Mario turns everything around on Friday I'd make the change.
