I'm actually 10 miles away from Belle Vue, it rained here earlier but the sun is trying to peak through the clouds now. Not too successfully though.

GregoryM Posted September 13, 2021 Report Share Posted September 13, 2021 I must admit I’m not always ‘on the ball’ when it comes keeping totally up-to-date with the seemingly ever-changing rules and regulations. I’m just wondering why the Aces do not have Richie Worrall back in the team tonight, given he is back – and scoring well – in the SGB Premiership? Is his continued absence from the Aces’ team connected to the rules governing the signing of Nicolai Busk Jacobsen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is his continued absence from the Aces’ team connected to the rules governing the signing of Nicolai Busk Jacobsen? Richie Worrall made his comeback with Edinburgh on Friday and rode Friday, Saturday, Sunday. (he's also due to ride Wednesday). As Belle Vue would probably have had to declare tonight's team before he rode on Friday, they probably thought it might be too big a risk to ask him to ride 4 days on the trot (and 5 days out of 6). They're perfectly entitled to use temporary signing Busk Jakobsen for anything up to 28 days, so probably thought it was the safest option to give Richie Worrall a breather tonight and have him back fresh for the play-offs. (Having said that, it seems like it's been a bit of a pain with NBJ getting injured, then guest Aaron Summers retiring... they're down to Theo Pijper now). (They could have brought Worrall back in the side tonight if they'd wanted. There's nothing in the rules that says an injury replacement has to stay in the side for 28 days. But once they'd decided to stick with the injury replacement for tonight, they can't go back just because Summers pulled out, they have to stick with it and find a new guest) Edited September 13, 2021 by PotteringAround Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lefty Posted September 13, 2021 Report Share Posted September 13, 2021 Is it part of the Supplementary, Complementary And Regulatory Explanation (SCARE) that is for Promoters only? It must be adhered to until Poole find the relevant loophole / exemption! It helps encourage the greater use of guests and further dilutes team bonding that the fans want. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted September 13, 2021 Report Share Posted September 13, 2021 Surely the "in the interests of speedway" rule overrides any other option stated so far..... It is used in many unacceptable ways so why not use it when it would be sensible to do so 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheer lunacy.... You will never be a promoter... Edited September 13, 2021 by mikebv 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamonds85 Posted September 13, 2021 Report Share Posted September 13, 2021 This kinda of rules that the powers have dreamt up is the kind of thing that's been slowly killing off my club for the past decade or so (among other things, I know)... people have just lost interest with the ridiculousness by now... cheers bspa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many, many thousands more followers not attending than those who actually will... And it will be all down to the ludicrous way it is ran, and the ridiculous cost to get in for no more than 16 mins actual entertainment...

Bagpuss Posted September 13, 2021 Report Share Posted September 13, 2021 Take a bow Connor Mountain, that score puts one or two of his team mates to shame. Riss needs to be gone for 2022 unless he is on a bargain average. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TJ, Lewi, Erik and Ben with 17 between them, not good enough. Edited September 13, 2021 by Bald Bloke 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riss needs to be gone for 2022 unless he is on a bargain average. He rode fantastically well, looked quick all night. Craig did a very good job also, even though he didn't win a race was close all night and took two great passes from Dan to beat him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
