We have put reserves in heat 15 before and it's not worked out. Expand Cookie and Tom had just taken a 4-2 in heat 13 too. Plus danyon had just been passed by ruml, sign might been getting tired. Tremendous effort from danyon though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Can't believe I'm saying this but for once I agree with you! Just have to wonder if the Glasgow promotion were mislead about the GB team? I know that Poole are racing Berwick on the Saturday so I can understand why certain riders weren't selected BUT Jordan Palin, seriously? If it were 7 man teams then perhaps, and I mean perhaps, Palin could have been the No.7 but in a 6 man team absolutely no way. Explains why Ruml is in the RoW team, that and the fact that Sam Ermolenko is the manager! Whilst it will be good to see Rasser again, I wonder if an Australian team with Doyle and Fricke supported by any four from Masters, Pickering, Kurtz, Batchelor, Douglas, Morris and Thomson would have proved more attractive?

Beirao Posted June 23, 2022 Report Share Posted June 23, 2022 Team GB press release leaves Olly Allen with the hard task of justifying the GB line up, and something he fails to do in a vain attempt to distract us from test matches being little more than a revenue cash cow for his paymasters, the company that bought the Team GB franchise from the BSPL, a transaction reminiscent of Jack and the Beanstalk. Strange idea that he needs test matches to look at every rider at his disposal. All the GB guys ride in the Premiership, cant he see them there? Certainly his co manager Simon Stead, also the Sheffield manager, must see them most weeks. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
