Its been pointed out in another thread by worky and monarch fans that no such rule exists in the 2018 rule book

He might be guesting simply because he is good normally around Edinburgh, a track where speed is not so important compared to other tracks like Sheffield

Hope the crowd isn't affected by the football and the young lads get a good turn out

Why would you post a brownie in this weather the chocolate will melt

As already posted by a worky fan there is no GP rule

I've reread the quote and I can confirm it says has not. Hope that helps

we'll sign someone else, someone like Rene Bach maybe

A big thank you to a Workington fan for this It won't stop the ranters and ravers but hey without them theyd be no forum

Is anyone travelling up from England to support the 4 English lads riding for great Britain

Monarchs jammy once again getting a team away thats got lots of injuries. With there full team Scunny would have won easily. But now it is a easy win for monarchs

Another enjoyable meeting that got better as the night wore on. 7+1 from Lewis 4 rides so r/r did ok; just a real shame that Lewis got injured on Wednesday and possibly out for the season if I heard Michael max correctly. James did what he had to do and felt sorry for Jack winning heat 2 easily when the bike failed then getting the hard heats later on - Ellis, Newman, Morris and Lawson. Couldn't understand why it took so long to run heat 15 but the wait was worth it. Think most fans had expected Harris and Lawson with Worral and Morris but we got Barker and Ellis. And what a ride by barker, why o why didn't he do that for us. Just a shame we have to wait 3weeks to 27 July for our next home league match.

Lawson and Morris will both get close to a maximum. Ellis will do well so our bottom 3 need to outscore there bottom 3 big time!

Might not be too bad away from home Claus, Paul and a taccy sub should cover 3 of the rides Stuart too busy doing other tracks, see from reports in the Star a big hole has developed at Poole but the track will get better - nothing like a positive spin on things

Apparently postponed due to a game of football taking place in the afternoon in Russia. Some Glasgow fans quite rightly unhappy as they had booked hotels and flights but never mind I'm sure they'll come down for the rerun

Lewis Kerr injured tonight at Kings Lynn

What I meant was he got in people on artificially low averages in 2011 and on that occasion it worked from a trophy point of view albeit not financially. Think the Facennas want to be loyal to their team members, staff and UK speedway but get frustrated when things result in back biting, sly comments and incidents like Worrall and Lawson last year. With SD away will be interesting what they do for next year

Think Richie thinks he was a favourite but Stuart was very good at saying the right thing whether to fans, riders, owners. However his team building philosophy was always get in guys with a low/false average and once they've increased it for us after a season or two get rid or 'let go'. Think 2011 for the best example and this year Claus and Lewis. Surprised he kept Worrall this year after last years shenanigans but with Lawson deciding he wanted to leave, he probably had no other option. Edinburgh would eb a good fit although not sure if he'd like salt and sauce with his chips.

Well said and well said Jenga

Thought we might have a chance but after Richie's performance guesting tonight at Scunthorpe now not so sure. At least we have a strong reserve for once. Let's hope the TM makes use of him if required.

Thought for a minute Richie hates Sheffield and probabaly doesn't want to go back to Sheffield so helps Scunthorpe get through, then remembered were out of the Cup!

That's jolly nice of you. Im sure that makes Fingersfin feel a whole lot better

Ive calmed down since Thursday so lets see how we do tonight before giving up all hope. Can#t see us winning but a point would be good but then I thought that for Thursday. to the loyal fans that are going down well done and have a good time.

This is apparently round 3 of this years championship. Interesting to see how Leon Flint fairs. he has been scoring well for Birmingham and yet is still under 16. There is also some local interest with a number of scots based riders taking part. its only £10 to get in and you wont have to put up with any gardening or moaning. Should be great value for money.

Thank you. Apologies for appearing to be angry with you but our performance got to me. I did not think we'd win but didn't think we'd be embarrassing

And your point is. what does my post say? they gave him an extra ride at heat 15. His 4 programmed rides plus heat 15 =5 rides.
