Steve Irving Posted Monday at 03:16 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 03:16 PM Thereâs home advantage, and then thereâs this! Should this be allowed on the actual day of a meeting? Home riders having all afternoon to practice and fine tune their setup to suit the track conditions on the day? Seems a bit off to me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iâm sure someone will point to the fact that this isnât against the rules, but it should be. Thereâs always an element of home advantage regardless of track conditions, but itâs a fact track conditions can vary from meeting to meeting. A home team shouldnât be allowed to spend a whole afternoon fine tuning the perfect set ups on the actual day of a meeting. It may not exactly be âcheatingâ, but itâs definitely off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I bet they did!! It wouldnât have anything to do with the fact the team building average had been reduced and theyâd signed the statistically top rider in the league saddled with a near 10 point average, meaning having to go weak at reserve with two inexperienced riders would it? Of course not. They were thinking in the best interests of the sport long term! đ We all know self interest rules the roost and itâs plainly evident again here. They finally had the top end strength theyâd craved for years, and also wanted to negate any disadvantage theyâd have from that at reserve by trying to force everyone else to go with two out of their depth kids as well. They may have failed with Their requests this time, but we all know the influence certain people have and their threats to close their clubs if certain demands arenât met have been successful in the past. People wonder why this Sport in this country is in the mess that it is when itâs run by the very people who will ALL try and pull these stunts to gain an advantage for their own clubs. It will continue to happen until someone comes in to set the rules and regulations, and runs the Sport in this Country who doesnât have ANY association with one particular club.

Busters practice session will more than likely pay off tonight now though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTT Posted Monday at 07:15 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 07:15 PM Richard Lawson is such an underrated rider on British tracks. He's been ultra consistent for many years. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
