HA HA!

You sound like some one up North getting their excuses in before the result.

You got beat by Plymouths declared team & not a team of guests from the lower reaches of the league with limited top riders.

Plymouth quite happy to use a guest all season. Maybe they should have signed someone then if it is such an issue!

We ran with a singular guest all season whilst trying to sign someone that would have kept the standard of the team up. 
 

it was always going to be a potential issue with one rider and worst case scenario we could have used R/R as MPT had Poole Dialled in until he got fenced. We have 4 injured riders. Even if Kennet was fit it’s near impossible to replace the other three with points they would Get. 

 

out of curiosity if you have such a packed schedule howcome Neil’s testimonial was more important than an official meeting ? Why did the BSPA not Insist they run a meeting of more importance ?! 

 

if this happened in an established sport that the teams biggest fixture can get changed in under a week it would be laughed at.

Unless Plymouth would have rode Wednesday, who else is there, Poole's opponents in the ko cup due to be sorted tonight 

Expand  

So you could have ridden home leg against winners on Wednesday night. 

You coukd have ridden home leg of Jubilee Cup - Glasgow would have been delighted as already at Plymouth on Tuesday night. Until the enforced change. 

So Jubillee  Cup Final or KOC Final (or is it semi) could have been staged surely Finals are important and semis more important than quarters

At least four without him!

They have replacements for at least 2 of them. The whole point was having guest for injured riders, so you can't include ones that they have replacements for!

Not likely with their injuries. If Plymouth don't want to rely on guests then why should Glasgow?
