those cunning rule makers didnt plan for the genius that is the Witches eh!! I think Lewis fits within both rules anyway

But Howarth wasnt at No7

That rule I believe covers 2-5 in the team. So if Adam was at 2 we could chose a guest when normally only available for a missing no1 or if two riders missing. The reserves are always a guest but have different rules for who can come in for each position! Ive never understood why a No7 should be treated any differently but hey ho!

Mills and Schramm have both averaged above 4 at PL level previously and Douglas is not NL elligible which (I think!) makes them all inelligible. As clear as mud!

I find it hard to believe that he would lose money even at normal PL rates. With a lower than expected score of say 9 he would get £500. Perhaps he doesnt trust himself not to cop another fine!!

This is where we need to get the rules right. For the No7 it is a NL 6 pointer as far as I am aware. I dont know if that is different due to it being an international event. We dont want to do a Kings Lynn!

Only value baked beans on toast for a fortnight for this lot! Lol

There is another thread claiming Cook has declined to ride for GB v Aus in the upcoming 'test matches'. IF this is true ( I say if as there has been nothing official) then I cant see how he would get the wild card. Perhaps he already knows he hadnt got it hence the pull out from the tests (pure speculation that could be 2+2=5)

Looks like the Spanish threat of action over Gibraltar is already having some effect given your more frequent recent fishing trips back home! Some decent catches mind! Lol

Polyfoam seems to be the favoured choice now from a safety point of view. Does the polyfoam have to be a permanent feature and what needs to be behind it?

Some general 'playground stuff' as far as I know. WTF you up to sort of thing. I have not heard of any specific profanity or personal abuse etc If I was aware of some kind of Zidane 'Ive had you sister' type of language then I would say but that is not the case as far as I know. (footnote - Zidane a poor example - he made the Workd Cup Final!!)

I asked first! Winking smiley!

'by the sound of things it is alleged' Well come on then spill what it was that turned Cook into a crazed animal. Im sure there were words but all accounts Ive heard dont indicate anything significant. If the provocation was known then we could form an opinion as to whether the reaction was in anyway justified.

I can only assume the ref thought he laid it down to avoid what was happening up front. That didnt seem the case to me as I thought Adam was down first and very much on his own. In general it seemed to me that there was too much grip at the entry to the bends which straightened a few up and took them into the deeper stuff at the wrong speed and angle to keep control. Im sure there a a few more qualified than me that can confirm that or otherwise??

A routine win for the Witches and a very ordinary meeting racing wise. Two excellent races to finish with - take bow Morten and Kozza for heat 15. Shame that Adam missed out on his full house.

Surprised that SCB hasnt been here yet asking who Ludvig is going to ride for til the end of the season as this means he doesnt qualify to double up by not prioritising British fixtures! Wink.

Is this the original fixture or a rearrangement?

Cook is not the best of the rest - that is Danny King.

Wasnt there rumours that he was already the asset of an EL club under some silly protected asset scenario?

One meeting doesnt make a season. The 2 chosen have been consistently better than him.

Thanks Screm.

NL guest rather than a facility?

Another meeting already - we haven't finished talking about the last one yet! The Witches should be comfortable in taking all 3 points from this one. Id say your 10-15 margin is spot on CS.

Green or yellow - not two colours that are generally liked around Ipswich way!!

How close is Cam to breaking in?
