Who are you trying to protect ? Nobody in particular as it's a bit of a mess & the children hopefully aren't affected at the end of the day as I have time for both riders...

From memory that was only the half of it. Didn't Lakeside find a number of their matches being called off a few days before they were due to be raced on a Friday night because the Management Committee were concerned about rider availabilty because almost every team would be racing on a Friday night. I seem to remember Jon Cook going ballistic about it and Lakeside having a big Fixture backlog. Nothing to do with Scunthorpe needing a No 1 Guest though! ?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boothers Posted April 11, 2022 Report Share Posted April 11, 2022 Just seen BWD has had a meeting with Alexander Armstrong to interview as Richard Osman's replacement. (Ouch! Sorry, just a friendly little dig there between rivals. Will probably come back to bite me on the bottom later lol). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lakeside were never supposed to have Fridays as their official race night, it was supposed to be Saturday, but Cook had the management over when he released his fixtures. Hence the back lash. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commonplace really Doesn't make it right. Sometimes it's just a lack of effort in searching for a new rider. Also no doubt comes down to cost. Cheaper to pay a guest already in GB than say bringing over a new Dane. Does nothing for the credibility of the sport at all though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
