Can't see many turning up for this one, if Mayfield realise the sport is unviable I could see a situation where Louis comes back and buys the club for a £1

0.70p … remember 30% is now Wroclaw 😆😀

But not fit for tomorrow?

He's not allowed to ride because he missed Leicester because of illness. The other week he rode for the Witches, then missed a Danish match due to illness, then rode for Poole on the Wednesday. Danish teams have squads so replaced him, and because he didn't miss a Prem or Champ meeting he could keep riding here.

The big worry has to be: is he actually unwell or, even more worryingly, is he picking and choosing for some reason?

ha ha very good lets hope they make a fist of it, the general mess the sports in, losing top two men and having to cobble a team together was never going to be a great starting point, I just hope the crowds don't drop off faster than a piano off a cliff and they end up jacking it in at the end of the season and cut losses.

Lawson is riding in Denmark this evening. Scored 4 from four outings so probably won't be asking him back.

I thought that when a rider was suspended that his racing licence was suspended for whatever period of time, obviously not though is Lawson has ridden in Denmark, why would you just suspend a rider from British Speedway? 

... ah yes, because it's British Speedway!

Probably because everywhere else you don't get punished for being ill lol.

Is Mr Lawson the new Craig Cook of Ipswich and Poole 🤔🤔😜

Now Mr Cook has retired (again?), the hate does seem to have moved on to Mr Lawson as the next biggest p155 taker in British Speedway... what are you putting in the water up there?! 😂

That’s not true though. In Poland if you don’t have a sick note from a doctor, like Lawson hasn’t, then you get a heavy fine and potential further punishment because Ekstraliga also punishes the club financially for not adhering to their official line up. His failure to attend the track at Leicester, even when the management asked him to, would see him almost kicked from the team in Poland and trust me the fans would not be as forgiving as British fans are, they would be booing and whistling him in the next match.
