There are number One riders out there that can guest, but Plymouth choose to use lesser riders at number one, that to me is "cheating the public".

Perthaps I'm "constantly preaching negativity" on the Forum because the sport is going down the pan and clubs are consistently allowing it to happen, rather than try to do something about it.

As for the "sport will soon be gone" see above.

You try getting a no1 to guest at Plymouth on a Saturday night, easier said than done.

I was down as a comets fan, got to agree crowd levels are a lot better than the same fixture last year, so bigger crowd equals more spending in food/drink outlets, so win win for the promotion, the announcer was good, the mascot interaction with the crowd was good not over the top, and acknowledged the travelling comets fans, some interesting races, if a Plymouth or neutral fan, but not as a comets fan ☹️ one negative the length of the track grade and interval, it took over 2.5 hours to complete 15 heats of speedway, yesterday heat 14 was re run umpteen times,but 150  minutes to do 15 heats come on  ☹️  hopefully back to Plymouth next year with the comets

We just wanted to prolong the agony for you having to watch your team get smashed 🤩

It shouldn't be up to Plymouth to determine whether he's breaking the rules, that's the SCB's job surely, their inconsistency in the application of the rules is staggering at times. 

I totally agree. Can't have riders for 2 clubs missing the same match because they are riding the next day, one gets a ban & one doesn't. Which could happen depending on the guest their team chooses to use!

Generally teams cheat  the home team when they are riding away  as it does not matter to them about attendance.
