The Third Man Posted May 11, 2007 Report Share Posted May 11, 2007 (edited) So does anyone know what the criteria is for the number of meetings a rider has to ride before the final, and when the cut off date for the number of meetings is? or is this just yet another unexplained rule that the supporters, who are expected to pay to watch this part of the so called SUPER 7s, arnt going to find out about. however it does seem strange that dave has ridden in 5 meetings to date and carl stonehewewr has only ridden in two, so have we comfirmation that this rule is real and dave isnt riding for any other reason? any chance JC coming on again and explaining this one, and while he is about it he can explain the qualifiction for the pairs as well.

Now reading it again its been worded in such a way that they *could* argue that was only for qualification of the team and not the individual riders. And there was us thinking they were being more open this year - oh ok I thought that anyhow in my naievety! Still makes no difference as far as Carl Stonehewer is concerned - if David's not eligible, neither is he. I have a funny feeling the reality will be different tho! Thanks for advising the re-arranged date screamer - wonder if David would get to ride then? lol Everything is just once again highlighting the need for qualifiers for the even either on the day (that would be brilliant for the fans and crowd numbers!) or beforehand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest PanthersChamp06 Posted May 11, 2007 Report Share Posted May 11, 2007 Whats going to get us more money... a weak Oxford side so no crowd, or a load of Prem Teams bringing fans? Im dumb and can answer that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Posted May 11, 2007 Report Share Posted May 11, 2007 Might just be ok. Looking at metcheck the heavy rain isn't expected to hit Peterborough till about five/six so they will have to get the meeting through at a fair old rate as after that they expect a fair old bit of rain. Predicts P'boro will have 13mm of rain between six and midnight so probably won't be much racing after five or six. Looks as though they will have to get the heats through in around three hours.
