The right five pointer would make that a much better side. Whoever it was would come in at reserve. If a new foreigner can't be found dare I suggest Craig Cook

What's Klindt's average?

But maybe he shouldn't cut his nose off yo spite his face. Life is about setbacks, it happens. If he's being stubborn and immature about it that's a great pity. Why not both?

Yep, the delights of Campbell, Kyllingstadt, Davies, Regeling etc. with all due respect to all of those riders.

It was more a reply to TTT rather than yourself really. It's completely moot because it won't happen, but if we were able to replace somebody (probably Jorgensen) with a competitive number one then it would make the world if difference. We will always have a good reserve but lack points from the top of the order, look what difference it made to P'boro tonight. I'd Pickering, MPT & Jakobsen haven't done too much wrong and I'd keep KK for his away form and Klindt because I think he'd offer a lot more away from number 1. No idea who that number one rider would be or even if they could be fitted in but that's what this team needs. And Pickering back pronto.

But Pickering would have scored many more than three so its swings and roundabouts.

I think if you are expecting us to get anywhere near anyone away from home you'll be disappointed. KK just doesn't seem interested away from the AFA and only a couple of others turn up, and never the same two. It's a whole season of struggle ahead unfortunately with the very odd home win.

Lynn certainly missing Pickering tonight.

Ben Cook is a fine young rider.

He's using Josh Pickerings at Lynn so I assume he's still struggling. Seems there aren't enough around, one assumes covid may have prompted some to get a 'proper' job with a guaranteed income.

Emil will probably be ok because he's a class act, but it must be said that Monmore Green is very, very different to Leicester or the Foxhole.

Gooarrrrrnnn Robert

What happened to Pickering practicing Sat with a view to riding Sun & Mon? Panthers to win and Stars to take bonus.

Agree, and I'd pay to watch him over Lawson or Worrall any day of the week.

Two full sides* with no guests or R/R, hallelujah! *at the moment!

Insinuation then! Highly unlikely I'd have thought.

Have heard the same.

No not the Euro meeting If that was the case then fair enough. It's a good general point about having riders there though, people don't want guests and R/R where it can be avoided.

Schedule the meeting for a different date perhaps?

Probably taking shelter from the dust somewhere......

That's quite an accusation.

I think it will be a two point win either way and consequently Poole will go through, just.

Personally I'd always prefer a couple more senior races over half a dozen junior ones, but each to their own.

*minimum of 6 minutes. Anybody would think you didn't want Wednesday to win I think we all accept that refereeing is inconsistent, especially at lower levels, but that shouldn't take away from a fabulous tie. Proper footballing theatre.

Going by the car parks I'd have said there was 1k plus but if you stood and counted them I won't argue Sad to see Iversen and Andersen struggling so much.
