18.9 An INJURED RIDER REPLACEMENT (IRR) Is a Facility that allows one certified injured rider’s (#1-#5) remaining programmed rides (including a ride in which he was unable to re-start but was not disqualified - FN) to be taken by other Team Members (including any Guest riders), and subject to: 18.9.1 The injured Rider not having completed 3 rides 18.9.2 Only one position per Team may be declared as IRR. 18.9.3 All riders with an MA below the Injured rider may take one IRR ride each. (NB. a reserve can have more than one IRR) 18.9.4 IRR is not permitted in Heat 15. 18.9.5 A Nomination once made cannot be changed.

I think it’s more the timing of the decision rather than the decision itself.

Just how difficult is it for the SCB/BSPA to Issue GSA monthly so everyone can understand them easily.

To be fair signing riders on low or false averages has always been the plan but getting the best out of them and having a good team spirit is also a massive help. I rather suspect the latter two are missing at Glasgow (not altogether surprising with what’s reported to have happened) and the fact that Dickson left tells me things haven’t improved. You can chuck money at it all day long but you are wasting your time if you haven’t got the right people picking the side and a decent team spirit, just ask Rick Frost.

Got mine on email although no news or info in the Rye House section

It’s certainly working at the moment and with Grondal back it only makes us a little more solid.

Clearly chose to

Talking to him Friday he is pretty keen to get back in action.

Thankfully, Heeps was dreadful at Peterborough recently and only scored in his last ride because he was on one of Kings bikes.

Grondal looked very sharp and quick when practising after Friday’s meeting so hopefully will slot back into the side and continue with his excellent early season form.

What was the crowd like

Not the best GP I have ever watched but after a terrible start it did improve somewhat in the second half, nice to see Woffinden at his best but the inside gate was far too advantageous. i am no Pedersen fan but he was helped off both times.

I queried it tonight and Ellis GSA changed this week apparently and that put him above Lawson in the averages.

You always type rubbish

Nice to see another team taking advantage of the rules currently in place and doing nothing wrong, I cannot imagine who they got that from but Garry May does live in Poole.

What an absolute borefest, made much worse by the constant verbal diarrhoea of Sam Ermolenko

Another cracking away win and this one without Ulrich, well done Panthers

Listening to Garry Mays interview it suggests an apology from Wright to May was all it would have took to restore calm.

Need the MC permission, shouldn’t have thought that was a problem I cannot remember the last time they said no

Ellis Perks at 2 should have a point to prove. Nicholls & Palm Toft should score well and Wilson Dean should give them good back up, I rather think it will come down to how the bottom end go, we need one of Perks, Lambert or Bacon to seriously step up or score really well between them.

A lot of the regulars including staff bring their own, a few more bring takeaway food in with them, because the refreshment stands usually in attendance are very expensive.

Anyone know of a club that routinely has two paramedics or 1 doctor and 1 paramedic at every meeting.

If they sacked riders for moaning about the state of tracks a lot of the riders would get sacked every week, I rather suspect it was a little more than that, to be fair I have always found Garry May to be very easy to get on with.

Some very good points made and the best one If you don’t run any sport with credibility and intergrity, you simply cannot complain when you struggle to generate decent crowds every week.

Would be my choice, boys riding out of his skin at the moment
