old bob at herne bay Posted July 18, 2021 Report Share Posted July 18, 2021 Yup BT Sport have signed up Richard Lawson to replace Scott in the studio. Apparently part of the deal is that Lawson gets a free haircurt in "make Up" before he appears on TV. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Yes Eastbourne no 1 Lawson, so I think that means we've got Scott Nicholls instead so who are Leicester now having as guest? - Chris Harris perhaps (before someone takes this seriously it's a joke) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

old bob at herne bay Posted July 18, 2021 Report Share Posted July 18, 2021 You couldn't make it up - seems I have been banned from Speedway Updates site for what I can only assume is my post stating the Scott Nicholls was superb and is a "wily old fox" ! That or crticism of Eastbourne's track ! Oh well their loss - was thinking about becoming an updater. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His place will be taken by Nathan Ablitt. In these circumstances, Championship clubs can only use a 3-point NDL level reserve. Expand If that's the case how does Knight guest?

Expand Drew Kemp 3.58, Jake Knight 2.00 from the latest GSAs (Issue 10). Art 12.4 gives the facilities for an absent reserve as : D Absent 6 - 7 : GE No facility : G with an MA of 25% lower that the absent rider, in accordance with the appropriate minimum MA for that league. The 5% enhancement for home riders is not applicable in this situation. Jake fits under both those categories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrizHeathen Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 It was so blatant, right in front of the referees box too. The sudden fightback and sudden end to the fightback is proof in itself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand It certainly was an interesting bit of track grading. Basically a bit of over watering on gates 1&3 ( flooded were the words I heard ) which coincides with Leicester having those gates for two heats in a row mid meeting which resulted in two 5 1s for the home team! Needless to say the Leicester TM and Captain were on the centre green next to the start line for the next grading and watering which resulted in the tractor having to come back out to grade all the starts after consultation with the referee who inspected the track prep & was dissatisfied as all four gates were not prepared the same..

Elmo Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 Also not Kevin Coombes finest afternoon. Arrived late, consistently got the name of Leicesters sponsors wrong (JBC?) got the score wrong (probably due to the late arrival in part fairness) and didn’t notice Dan Thompson had replaced Zaine Kennedy in heat 11.
