If Max is not available, Ben Cook was flying last night, looked very quick. Edited August 19 by foreverblue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS50 Posted 15 hours ago Report Share Posted 15 hours ago Just wondering about the rules. As Jack is almost certainly not returning this year, do the rules allow a change, taking in to account, Sheffield have completed over 75% of their scheduled fixtures.

Robert Lambert would be a great addition to the play offs .. Considering the sport uses Mickey Mouse rules all season, (often to its detriment), it seems ridiculous that at the business end of the season they don't do the same to improve the spectacle... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's crazy that British Speedway thinks it is more credible to use guest riders rather than a genuine replacement for a rider with a season ending injury. Of course, the regulation was changed after Belle Vue did that ( when the regs allowed it - unintentionally or otherwise) to bring in Robert Lambert to replace the injured Max Fricke a few years ago. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorzow have brought in Charles Wright to replace Jack Holder . Now, he isn't obviously a LIke For Like replacement but if there had been some World Class riders not riding in Poland they could have, and would have, brought one in.. Like a proper team sport would allow... 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
