It's called promoting! Fans more likely to attend when there is opposition riders they like as well as the home riders. 

For example a lot of Poole fans like King and Nicholls so bigger crowd when Plymouth come, than when Oxford are here.

Yes I would have thought King for Lawson, Morris riding well though.

They didn't like those two the other week at The Coliseum! 😉

I actually thought that Brennan was guesting for Lawson and not Scunny until my son told me!

Batch, that was in the dark ages when he rode for us. I would rather have Vinnie Foord.!

Was it a technology issue?

Well we seem to be in the season for guesting, on Saturday Oxford almost won it for the Pirates but then realised what they were doing?! On Wednesday can't see anything but a Poole win without Pickering's 15 points, will be good to watch Brennan again but am not expecting him to be exceptional. Morris is definitely on it at the moment, OK maybe not 15 but double figures for sure.
