Not sure why you appear to have an issue with me ? Perhaps it’s because Ive read the rule book before I post ? Or that I have read the club information before I post ? Either way, you come across as a somewhat ‘touchy’ individual who doesn't seem to keep up with events before typing on here.
As ‘ Team GB ‘ is a private business it assumably needs to turn a profit, staging a test match in the UK with UK based riders isnt likely to make them a big sum and attracting the big stars to ride costs big wages.
What’s the panic? Bears haven't beaten Poole for how long ? and the Bears are at their weakest at the moment nor ridden at home for at least a month, so no riders and no staff by the looks if it !
Got one, that’s how I worked out he’d missed one match. You’re wanting him replaced so you should be happy they’ll get a guest, but be realistic, he’s representing Team GB and there's no riders to sign. Plenty of riders missing meetings these days as Poland is number 1 and riders chase the money elsewhere before UK speedway implodes.
Bears are looking weaker with Riss and Mulford missing, a lot depends on the guests they can get but thinking Bears won't repeat their earlier success.
