with sedgy guesting for Edinburgh on sunday just there does the 7 day rule not come into force 

Edinburgh match was Saturday this week's home match is Sunday so it's all legal. Like said on other thread whether the rule should be consecutive matched at a specific track and not just the 8 days is open for discussion

This will be Sedgeman's 3rd appearance (for 3 different teams and none them his own) in the last 3 (CL level) meetings at Ashfield.

Guests are now beyond a joke especially since certain teams don't seem to give a monkey's about finding their own replacements

Yip Brennan, Howarth, Lawson, Sedgeman and of course Bomber must be making as much from guesting as they do riding for their own teams.

As I suggested elsewhere maybe it's time to limit riders to only guesting once for each team or at each track during a season?

But what would you rather see R/R every week or a side with a full 7 ? Because with the availability of riders riding in Europe and having other matches in the same league and then trying to get someone who is the correct fit average wise it is highly unlikely that you will end up finding a guest if you bring in a rule like that

In the 3 scheduled matches last night there were 6 guests and 2 r/r in place.

The sport loses credibility with every turn of a wheel.

Changes need making

Why don't Plymouth fans like Scunthorpe? I'm obviously missing something!

When we came back to League racing in 2006, we burst Plymouth's bubble with 2 great teams in 06 & 07 winning almost everything.

All stems back to the conference days,and how there promoter seems to run the sport his way and his way only.

Godfrey was not even on the board in the conference days so could not run the sport his way.

Why not let other team members take more than one r/r ride.Say if your number one was missing,let your numbers 3and5 take two of his rides each.

6 man teams built to about 34 or 35 reducing chances of top heavy teams, Brit at reserve.

 All non declared riders go into a "guest riders pot" but limited to number of appearances per team.

I think the 6 man teams are a very realistic prospect given the current situation regarding availability of heat leaders
