Poole V Eastbourne - Wednesday 10 September


Recommended Posts

Could be 7 guests riding for this meeting. That's 50% of the riders on show!!!!!!! That's pathetic!!!!!! RIP British Speedway!!!!!!

 

Edit:- Davey Watt could now be missing........so Poole could need a guest for their guest.....you really couldn't make this rubbish up!!!!!!!!

 

So what happened in the 'olden days' then when you had riders injured and/or banned?

Why could Watt be missing?

He put on twitter, I believe, that he hurt his broken foot again on Monday in Lubos Tomicek Memorial meeting in Czechoslovakia and was having it looked at on Tuesday, and it could mean the end of the season for him.

So what happened in the 'olden days' then when you had riders injured and/or banned?

I remember (just as an example) back in about 1981 when Weymouth had a rider out injured, they would name a number 8, who at that time was a very young Steve Schofield. He did so well that the next season he was given a team place.

There were other second halfers/juniors that could come in if there were injuries like Rob Mather and Dave Roberts.

Maybe second halves races should be reintroduced ??

Answers Our question

Not sure how the 8 day rule works, but, is Lasse Bjerre eligible to guest as he rode for his own team Wolverhampton at Poole last week?????
