Others said the same thing in that you could be ill and say there is a family emergency. Don’t really see the point of a ban in genuine case.The Teams can get guest so that negates the point.

He didn’t ride was just named in the side and rides taken by the reserves, he’s still unwell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange, they said he was involved in a crash on Premier sports, although I hope not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did say he was injured tonight! ps Looking at heat details it did say he never started his 1st race and never rode.So you could be correct Edited 21 hours ago by Fromafar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Teams can get guest so that negates the point. I think the rule was brought in to stop riders feeling "ill" every time they were due at Exeter, then making a quick recovery for their next match. A 7 day suspension stops this happening. But it also means riders who are genuinely ill, having to miss more meetings than necessary, which means more guests (when they should be trying to limit them). Could also mean a rider races when not well to avoid a suspension, potentially causing an accident if he's not strong enough to control the bike. I would get rid of the rule, maybe of it happens multiple times in a season, can look into it, but anyone can be sick one day & off work, but back the next. Why can't Speedway riders? Better make a comment on the match. Glasgow to win on aggregate. Edited 19 hours ago by szkocjasid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think 7 days is too harsh especially for a first offence, maybe a 1 match ban or 3 day ban and then increase for each illness in the season just to stop any abuse. I think earlier in the season Howarth rode unwell to avoid the ban and if I remember right did end up injured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This rule needs looked at. I agree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noelinho Posted 4 hours ago Report Share Posted 4 hours ago I don't understand Edinburgh's riding order. It seems odd to me. I did think this would be a close tie overall with Glasgow winning on the night. Looking at the lineups now, I think Glasgow might have the lead by the first grading break. Now watch me get egg on my face... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
