I reckon you are being crafty there......the helmet looks a lot more modern than the bike and leathers!

As has been eluded to it could well be Buster saving himself the cost of a flight or deciding that the Breum experiment hasn't worked and knocking it on the head (he has been awful). I would suggest the second leg of a cup final is very different to a nothing league meeting, and one which has been arranged at very short notice at that. Maybe he is taking the P, maybe he isn't but if he thinks that being in Denmark on Thursday is his best preparation and the rules allow him to be then he's within his rights, nothing anybody can do.

It makes no difference what Rew is or isn't doing, if the FIM rules & regs permit Breum to miss Thursday night then that's all that matters really.

With respect you suggested that Zak Cook's injury might mean that tonight isn't 'quite so one sided' which could be construed as writing Scunny off from having a chance of winning

This is just like a Poole thread.

Loving this thread!

Absolutely agree. The main thing IMO that we need to get a grip on is clubs borrowing riders from other teams they directly compete against in the same division. The RS list at least gives a group of riders to pick from in the event of an injury who don't ride for a competitor.

That would represent common sense so probably not.

If you don't like reading his posts then put him on ignore, really simple.

Well done Danny King.

What threats lol

Yep its worse.

Not even the home meeting against Peterborough?

Because you got Gollob on a ringer average

Absolutely not what?

Purely told to get a guest facility.

Not really, I think its been a mixture of Buster telling him to sit meetings out as he couldn't afford to pay him and Wroclaw pulling rank and telling him to sit meetings out so he is fit for their matches. All down to money unfortunately, I genuinely believe that if it was up to the rider he wouldn't have missed any. I don't disagree that it's a disgrace though.

Not for me, Poole don't have a weak link from 1-7 and are still pretty clear favourites IMO, as they have been all season.

No tac subs in play off meetings surely?

Robert Lambert looking so slow on a track he is normally dynamite around.

This was done to absolute death at the time but there were no obvious candidates after Lambert, Bewley & Woffy. So they sensibly went for two other Brits who ride in Poland regularly and have experience on continental tracks. Very difficult to imagine anyone else doing any better than Adam Ellis did.

The table doesn't lie.

You are right, scenarios 1 & 2 shouldn't be allowed to happen either. But at least they have stopped it for the actual league play offs. And I'd argue it could affect a rider's own team....they could contribute towards eliminating a side they don't want to face or helping a team get through who they do!
