I've so far got Rob Hollingworth on 57. I'm pretty sure I've missed some as well. Need to have a more thorough look. His big bonus is 1977, when as well as being an ever-present with Boston, he almost did every meeting with BL Wolves that as well. And, of course, his 2000 to 2005 comeback mops up another set of tracks. All the best Rob

SCB, once a rider has done four home and away, he can be dropped. An average marked up to the minimum is not deemed an assessed average. All the best Rob

Steve, the modern-day PLRC at Sheffield still works well. Sadly, the ELRC has suffered due to rider withdrawals and not really having a proper home; it's nomadic. Hopefully this year's event at Brandon - possibly the last-ever at the track - will draw in a big crowd. All the best Rob

As I said, we had to let you win something. We wanted the BL, KOC, LC and MC - so we let you win the Easter 3TT. I'm not even sure if there was a trophy for it A few years later, there was the Thames Valley Trophy, which was a mini-league between the three clubs rather than a 3TT. I think that was home and away on the same day. Oxford and Reading always tended to be home and away on the same day. Late May Bank Holiday for the League Cup, and August Bank Holiday for the British League. We won some and lost others of those, since Oxford and Reading were quite well matched, whereas Swindon were easy meat. Those were the days All the best Rob

Sidney, you remember incorrectly. It was Oxford on Good Friday morning, Swindon on the Saturday evening and Reading on the Easter Monday morning. There weren't two meetings in a day for the 3TT. But the meetings did draw big crowds and were memorable. The Cheetahs normally flopped in the 3TT, because we had to let Swindon and Reading win something All the best Rob

If it's such a non-starter, then how come you've posted on it more than anyone else All the best Rob

Who made you judge, jury and executioner? All the best Rob

On the contrary, SCB and I once had a 5-page discussion caused by a badly placed comma and how it possibly changed the interpretation of a certain rule All the best Rob

Er, that's better All the best Rob

The rulebook is actually quite clear on this occasion. All the best Rob PS I'm glad you don't write the rulebook - all those misplaced apostrophes would drive me mental

Reserve replacement is allowed according to rulebook. All the best Rob

Because Berwick didn't know the rules? Alex Davies hit tapes and replaced by Stefan Nielsen at Scunthorpe last week. All the best Rob

Is it? maybe we need a thread to discuss that. All the best Rob

As it's a thread about SCB, we must maintain averages. So far SCB's average score is -500,005. All the best Rob

What a pointless reply from HS All the best Rob

Is minus -1,000,000 allowed? All the best Rob

There were new rules this year, where it had to be a set number of days, but I didn't think it was as much of a month. Maybe the rider has to be re-assessed before he can return, but I'm just guessing with that. Ask the referee next time you're at a meeting. All the best Rob

Alex had clutch problems, that dragged him through the tapes in Heat 15. All the best Rob

Hold on, but Richard Hall isn't being blocked from riding in the NDL. He can sign for anyone - if they're willing to accommodate his average. Birmingham could accommodate him by releasing other riders. Same as Peterborough did with Craig Cook. All the best Rob

That's a mistake, Sheffield only took 3 points from the meeting. All the best Rob PS It was a brilliant move by Josh. I was stood on the back straight, and he went through a gap that wasn't there!!

It would have been nice to win, and we were a bit unlucky in the end, but without Wilko and with only a junior in for Andreas, I feared a hiding yesterday. We lost, but we went down fighting. Thanks to Stefan Nielsen - a stunning guest performance. All the best Rob

R/R for Jason Garrity. Looking forward to this one - it should be an absolute cracker. All the best Rob

Coming up to support him, Lewy? All the best Rob

Stefan Nielsen in for Scorpions: http://scunthorpescorpions.co/?p=5501 All the best Rob

Simmo at Barrow is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TGlesVS8dc Rob Grant passed him from behind in his trademark forceful fashion! All the best Rob
