Leicester at home 2pts Oxford and Birmingham home and away - 4 wins 2 bonus = 10pts BV and Sheffield home - 2 wins and bonus points - 6pts Just that Suffolk lot away to deal with.. Sheffield (rather than Leicester) just might be catchable.... Even if you did manage all those results, which is unlikely, that would put you on 32 points. Wins for Sheffield away at Birmingham and Oxford will take them to 32. Are you confident that Sheffield will lose home and away to Ipswich and Belle Vue, and home to Leicester ?

therefused Posted Sunday at 04:57 PM Report Share Posted Sunday at 04:57 PM (edited) I wonder if just signing Kerr would be a better option than going with guests, but he didn’t exactly pull up any trees in his guest appearance Edited Sunday at 08:13 PM by therefused Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is definitely coming back, that was never in question. I wanted him replaced because he was coming back too late, not because he wasn’t coming back at all 🤷🏻♂️ we should have been able to use Lewi tomorrow night anyway, that 8 day guest rule is absolutely mindblowingly rubbish!

Teromaafan Posted Sunday at 08:08 PM Report Share Posted Sunday at 08:08 PM 11 hours ago, LisaColette said: What old ruling? You have always been able to have a guest at 6. It is only r/r which is for top 5. Yes, I’ve looked at this again. I think I got my wires crossed. The wording of the SCB rules regarding guests relates to riders in a teams top five allowance for an additional 5% on averages for guests standing in for a rider in a home meeting (which I was aware of). An additional clarifying sentence along the lines of ‘guests outside of a teams top five are permitted but the extra 5% is not applicable’ could perhaps be included. Anyway, trivial, move on!

Hamish McRaker Posted Monday at 12:04 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 12:04 PM So Jan Kvech is now at #1 but even so, possibly he's been a bit underwhelming this season. I'd expected him to have had the #1 role nailed down earlier in the season, rather than spending time down at #6. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
