Guests or a temporary signing as cover I wonder? 

How many times can Scott guest :wink:

Poss might have signed Eric or Nicolai, but both snapped up so....l

Doyle, Ellis, Dan T, Rew & Jenkins can take r/r outings.

I'd stick with guests & r/r till he's fit again.

Guest options in May:

B.Cook, Douglas, Masters, Becker, Lawson, C.Holder, Pickering, Brennan, Basso, Klindt, Tungate, Harris, Wright & of course Scotty Nicholls!

On a typical Thursday, only one team isn’t racing. This has to be factored in when looking at guests.

Correct. Our next meeting on Thursday, only Belle Vue not racing. The one after that on Bank Holiday Monday, only Sheffield not racing. Drastically reduces guest options. R/R or a Temporary signing probably the best way to go.

Forget Holder, he's pants round Foxhall, and with Scott's TV work ramping up will he want to take many guest bookings

Do we go for Tarasenko 28 day replacement?

I know they said he doesn't want to ride UK anymore but was it more he wanted out from Lynn??

I believe it was his Polish club who recommended that he stop riding over here.

There will.always be one team not racing, if you can't get a good guests r/r is always available. Ben Cook at Leicester? Josh Pickering at home to King's Lynn?

If Sheffield are not racing could use Pickering at home but Holder away then?

Some matches they won't have a lot of options, but I still think guests or r/r will be decent cover for King.

Chris is no mug, there is an extremely good chance that he's already pencilled in replacements having browsed the fixtures...;)

I think it will probably be r/r for Thursday and Monday as the options look very limited, although maybe B Cook for Thursday.

Generally, r/r should be OK for home meetings but more troublesome away.

I feel like we can cover R/R at home fairly well... Doyle getting an extra ride is appealing and you could stick him in heat 5 up against the opposition's number 1 perhaps...  

Away from home, I would definitely prefer to see a guest

*EDIT* Posted just after JamesB, but as you can see I agree with him! :D

I agree on B.Cook for Thursday, i can see that happening for sure.But i think you will all find that they will be bringing in a Replacement for Danny asap. Probably in for King's Lynn on Bank Holiday Monday, might be wrong. Chris and Ritchie might also be waiting to see if any other team does another Panic decision (Klindt) and see if anybody becomes available, but i'm pretty sure they will replace Danny in the septet. Tough meeting at Leicester this Thursday, and am already looking forward to the drive to support the boys. You never know Chris may already have Danny's replacement already lined up. Roll on Thursday.
