Are you sure? They've never counted before! Cup meetings haven't affected the averages for any clubs this season!

Poole could drop any of their top 3 & it wouldn't be a bad choice! 3 strong riders, so one has to miss out!

I think the argument is about Kerr guesting on the Tuesday, missing a KL match on the Thursday, then riding for Redcar on the Friday!

I saw lots of comments on the updates about Sheffield being stronger without Cook, but as it turned out Howarth won heat 8 & Sedgmen scored 1 from his 3 RR rides!

Have to agree, there's a massive gap between the NL & Champ. Just look at the scores of Bickley, McGurk & Coles. All 8-9 point riders in NL but are struggling to score anything in the Champ. Pijper being a sub 7.00 rider would be out of his depth as things stand. Champ needs to be weakened imo

I've noticed the Lions race their last home match on Aug 6th, then have to wait to race play-off / KOC matches. Meanwhile the Lion Cubs have home matches on Sep 3rd & 10th. So no racing at Leicester for nearly a month & as soon as the play-offs can start, there's two weeks they can't race while the NDL team do! The first week in Sep is likely to be for the P/O QF, but surely by the second week they'd be wanting to race the SF of either competition? Doesn't seem great planning, may end up racing into October / November lol!

Not at all, he was replaced by rider B so he can guest for rider C, simple NOT!!

I agree Jenkins is a stronger rider, but with Bandits not in the play-off hunt, why not save money on travel expenses, while also giving one of the NL lads a go? That's my view anyway

With it being a double header thought Berwick would use one of the Bullets if Knudsen missing?

Have to agree, has to be the worst way to split ties, ranked lower because you didn't race the others!

I can't agree with Brennan being Champ, when 3 riders were tied - not fair to say Harris had beaten neither as he never got to race either of them. I could agree with having a quick run-off for the Cardiff spot between Harris & Brennan before the rain got worse. But not to decide the British Champion, as to me Nicholls, Steve Worrall etc were well in the mix, so better to re-stage the meeting & get a clear winner!

What a ridiculous comment, that Ellis is a "scumbag" for accepting the wild card. Is Bewley a "scumbag" for accepting a GB spot ahead of Kolodziej, Smolinski or Lebadevs who scored more in the GP Challenge? Is Celina Liebmann a "scumbag" for accepting a SON2 wild card despite scoring less points than THIRTEEN other non-qualifiers in the qualifying rounds? Is Tom Brennan a "scumbag" for accepting a SON squad position despite having a lower average in both the Prem & Champ than Charles Wright, Richard Lawson, Richie Worrall, Kyle Howarth, Danny King & Steve Worrall?

Despite the articles about Klindt's signing talking about a play-off chase, I just can't see it happening! Granted they want to sound positive. Best chance Lynn have are Wolves losing at home a couple of times if Masters is missing!

I'd have signed Complin for the rest of the season after his efforts as a guest!

I'm sure rules like this are so the club doesn't get punished for a riders "indiscretion"

They've done well with guests, but I'm not sure about using r/r for the 5th highest rider, as it means 11 rides for the reserves

Is Matthew Wethers fit? Sign him & James Wright should be a strong reserve!

Reading the comments about who will get dropped for the Jubilee Final, for Poole would 100% be Ablitt, for Glasgow gotta be Connor Bailey, been very poor recently (especially away from Ashfield), for Leicester (if they qualify) would be Joe Thompson for me, he rarely scores anything away from Leicester.

Ostergaard & Brennan have identical 6.62 aves for August. Makes a big difference who has the higher place in the team deceleration. If it's Ostergaard Glasgow get the choice of guest or r/r (Basso gets a ride), if it's Brennan only r/r allowed (Basso doesn't get a ride).

In recent years July 31st was the cut-off date for transfers, not sure if that's still the case this season?

I'll go for Glasgow 52 - 38 Edinburgh

What same 3 clubs dominating? Glasgow haven't won much in recent years!

If it's not allowed potentially have no league though! If one club had to drop to the Champ, can't see a 5 team Prem happening!

Pending disaster, Wolves look pretty safe for the play-offs, so as long as Masters can return by then, you'll be ok!

They had to give Flint a ride early on, I certainly wouldn't have used him cold in heats 21 or 22. But by not using Flint earlier, they had boxed themselves in, it had to be Kemp!
