Expand Not just rain but persistent rain for 4 hours. Accuweather thinks it might be a bit later so if they are right you might get 10 heats in. But the other main sites suggest a very poor outlook.

Mr Blobby Posted May 18, 2022 Report Share Posted May 18, 2022 Absolutely baffling decision in heat 15 putting Shanes in ahead of howarth. Cost the brummies the match. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read somewhere that James Shanes mows Rogers's lawn for him so there's obviously some favouritism going on, guaranteeing his favourite lawn mower extra rides to give him a decent pay day at the clubs expense rather than paying a decent wage out of his own pocket for cutting the grass.

Sargent10 Posted May 18, 2022 Report Share Posted May 18, 2022 And obviously you know what is happening in pits slumping over your computer, dope, proper fans are absolutely sick of your comments, totally negative and quite frankly unwelcome and if you want to make yourself known to me personally about your reference to my son in post on earlier page I will welcome your pathetic response 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerbat1875 Posted May 18, 2022 Report Share Posted May 18, 2022 Time to get Drury out of retirement, he would have at least tried to get a draw out of it, Oxford basically gifted the win here, but to be honest did deserve to win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I assume you heard that in your circle of friends who like you don’t know owt??? Shanes lives around 200 miles for the boss!! Think you might find it’s another rider who might do that in his spare time, next time get your facts right before making a complete fool of yourself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ljriley90 Posted May 18, 2022 Report Share Posted May 18, 2022 Im not even a brum fan but thats criminal from LR if it was just a matter of showing loyalty to a brum rider rather than using howarth in ht 15. Vissing would have been a more understandable shout. Shanes and morris not beating heeps in 14 the killer there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petecc Posted May 18, 2022 Report Share Posted May 18, 2022 Before jumping to conclusions did Howarth want to ride in heat 15 or anyone else. The weather was horrible, track wet and was Shane's the only willing volunteer? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Ok before I jump the gun here again- Pearson already had 5 points on the board which at that point was more then Shane’s - so what is the logic here? He had been gating well in the conditions and simply just missed the gate in the final heat otherwise he would of been right in the middle of the action again, as he seems to be always. I actually think he deserved his final ride for the night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
