"The Glasgow"...

"Tigers/Monarchs/Bandits/Bears/Diamonds/Scorpions/Lions/Eagles/Gladiators/Kings/Brummies/Pirates"

(Pause for a deep breath)...

"And now let's hear it for your fantastic 2021 Division Two Runners up who pushed them all the way"...

"The Poole"....

(Another deep breath)...

"Pirates/Monarchs/Bandits/Bears/Diamonds/Scorpions/Lions/Eagles/Gladiators/Kings/Brummies/Tigers"...

:D

You would need a couple of big old winners and runners up trophies to fit that on the roll of honour of them wouldn't you? 

And also need around 50 of each of the winners and losers medals....

With plenty of lads being awarded both... !! :D

 

 

I will say this once, twice & even more times from about 3 or 4 years ago that we have to make up our own model for team racing.

6 man teams

Minimise double up/ down to 2 or 3 riders per team

No guests from other teams

Riders not chosen/declared in a team go into pool to be chosen as & when a team is short. Averages & RS(now) status used with riders only allowed to guest  help out a team maximum 3 or 4 times.

Scott, Bomber and Rory are the most successful riders in the history of the sport...

They have won leagues for the past 20 years on the run.. 

But also lost them too at the same time..

:D

Peter facenna video on Twitter suggesting earliest nowak will be able to ride would be this Sunday. Do we get a facility for Poole and Leicester or does sedgeman keep his place? 

When Andersen missed his Berwick debut they had to revert to Garcia in their 1-7, Poole couldn't do that with Keleher, so got a guest for Smetana, so I'd guess Glasgow revert back to Sedgmen in the team, but how would that effect the transfer cut-off date? If the declared team still has Sedgeman in it, does that mean Nowak has missed the transfer deadline?

Yes, that's it in a nutshell.   No facility for a missing rider who hasn't yet raced for you in your 1-7 (can't go back to the old one, as that would be a change after deadline day) so to replace the Pole (5.00) Tigers can only use a guest up to 3.75 until Nowak turns up -- presumably with an ACU, or other acceptable licence.     

Leicester tell me that will be Jack Thomas on Saturday, no news yet of who will ride tomorrow, or on Sunday if the necessary documentation hasn't gone through by then.

But Glasgow will still qualify comfortably in the top six, although finishing on top might now be a stretch.

Peter Facenna has already stated that the licence is already in place.

But the lLeicester website has Sedgeman in the Glasgow team for Saturday...

IGNORE THIS! - I didnt look at the date and it was for the rained off fixture on the 19th August. Sorry for any confusion my post may have caused.

Why would Leicester be telling a ‘random’ Berwick fan… bit strange

He is the encyclopaedia of information on here  he/she must be getting numerous calls per day from the Championship clubs to relay to us minions on here.

 

Or maybe not.
