BSN may as well do away with the RoTN if it's just going to be voted on by rider fanboys... although who was ever going to vote for Jacob Hook when Batch got 16+1 🤷‍♂️

Although I did vote for him in RoTN how Bowes wasn't excluded for unfair riding I just don't understand, he completely baulked Worrall. 

012.1.14 Foul, Unfair or Dangerous Riding

The Referee shall immediately disqualify any rider who they consider indulges in foul, unfair or dangerous riding.

If, in the opinion of the Referee, such conduct produces an advantage to the rider involved or affects the chances of one or more riders, the Referee may stop the heat and order a re-run.

When was the last time this rule was used I wonder 🤔 

I've given him stick on here in the past and I hate to admit it but Batch was absolute class tonight 🤮

 

When you see what Bowtell was excluded for last night  at Armadale ,it looks like Worrell would have to fall . interpreting the  rules seem different too each Ref

Workington certainly looking good at home. Can they do enough away to pick up the deducted points they lost?

I don't know why they're not appealing that as they don't seem to have breached any regulation

New to speedway hence the name but is there not a rule stating that the ref should be informed beforehand of any changes to a heat regarding swapping riders? 

I also thought this and if so then those pts should've been taken away.

It's always going to go the way of the away team really as they are the ones sat at home watching it able to vote. Many home fans can't vote as they're there

He would have been informed.

announced at track the ref had not been informed about both changes there for them riders were not in the race and should have not gone ahead 

who was team manager tonight for scunny 

you would think he would know the rules but yet again how many times does his team follow different rules to others

Well I get annoyed when my choice isn't even in the the list of choices. Why can't we vote for any of the 14 riders?

Is it not the clerk of the courses job to tell the referee?
