Ipswich fan here

To go without either of your 2 top scorers in heat 15 is poor management from Edinburgh 

Glasgow had their top 2 in and didn’t put Harris.

The result may have been the same but surely you have to go with your form riders 

👏👏👏

Probably right choice in going with sedgy off gate 2 in heat 15 even though he was poor all night he’d just won heat 13 off that gate. Mistake was not going with Oskar/Victor off gate 4. 
 

Alex is right in what he’s saying there is no consistency from us. Sedgy and kye being prime examples of that last night, but think Alex himself realises the error he made in heat 15 last night. 

VP and OP earned the right to ride in heat 15.

Paco didn’t actually want heat 15 if it was off gate 4, but Paco then took at as nobody else did either.

What’s the job of the team manager if riders can turn round and refuse to ride in a heat? They should be told

Never seen Paco as the man for the “big” Heat especially of the outside gate.Very strange that home Team riders don’t want important races because of gate choices.

The riders shouldn't be able to tell managers when they don't want to ride the managers SHOULD tell them when to ride.

In theory yes, but if the said rider then comes in last how has your team benefitted? There's obviously more to team building than just looking at averages. And by the way well done to the Tigers.

100% agree, if they don't want to ride in heat 15, then find another club that'll let you pick & choose

That's a tad irrelevant, there'd be no evidence a team would've won with a different heat selection.
