But his bff is the Wolves captain, so maybe felt he wanted to help out idk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may need a guest in the play offs so it could keep his season going... And guesting in play offs can bring a higher premium given the clubs willingness to offer a larger incentive than a normal meeting... Given the whole season uses guests ad nauseam, who have all subsequently influenced the current table by doing so, it really is almost disingenuous of fans to complain towards the end of the season how these guests then shape the finish of it... A bit late in the day for fans to question the credibility of a system that doesnt have any, after spending months being quite accepting of it... I am sure Bomber will be keeping his bikes in good condition and his phone in his hand at all times... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haza Posted August 30, 2022 Report Share Posted August 30, 2022 Lawson Pickering and Klindt are all here to earn money if Buster said I will pay you your match average points money not ride I think they’d taken him up on it but can’t see Buster doing that - not sure what the answer is though the sport can’t be taken seriously while guest manipulate the league table..

For that reason, I think you are grasping at straws to refer to Wolves as your playoff rivals. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Exactly why it is best not to take it seriously and just watch the racing... It won't ever move on to become "mainstream" as it is so severely restricted by its operating model, which will always dissuade any major sponsors or media to get involved.. But it still can be a very decent night out if you take it at face value as being nothing much more than somewhat of a contrived, but entertaining and exciting, proposition.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
