Dornier Posted September 30, 2023 Report Share Posted September 30, 2023 I would have preferred Jack and Tobi riding. I'm hoping the guest riders can come somewhere near what they would have scored. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A rider who’s team has qualified for the play offs cannot guest for another team in the playoffs, so that the sport doesn’t look like Micky mouse when in theory the biggest tv audience will be watching. However a rider from a team that hasn’t qualified for the play offs can ride for more than one team in the playoffs. The situation with Harris is madness!! Harris plays a huge part in Ipswich qualifying for the final & will now ride against them. It would have made the sport look better to suspend the 8 day rule & allow Lawson to ride in the final at least it would have provided some consistency & any newbies watching wouldn’t be exposed to the crazy world of uk speedway. It's just so funny..As newbies would know the rules or care or know who Chris Harris You got to laugh at the ott drama of people 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack is pretty hopeless at Ipswich, Lambert will score at least what he would have got. Tobi only got 9 in both legs of cup so you would expect Harris to get more than that so you are benefitting from the injuries, your problem is Chris Holder who isnt too keen on the Ipswich track Edited September 30, 2023 by foreverblue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has beaten them before, he is capable of beating anyone. I guarantee he will be better than Bewley! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dornier Posted September 30, 2023 Report Share Posted September 30, 2023 I've seen it said on here that Lambert / Harris & Holder aren't too good around Foxhall am hoping that's not the case otherwise it will be all over in the first leg. Mind you they said Holder / Pickering & Lambert weren't too good around Monmore Green and look what happened there ! so maybe Tigers have a chance after all !

scoobydoo Posted September 30, 2023 Report Share Posted September 30, 2023 (edited) Just got to hope that Doyle doesn't do anymore crash dummy testing in the GP today and unfortunately ends up missing the 1st leg Monday , Then Harris guests for Sheffield and Lawson ends up as the guest for Doyle Now that would cause some very interesting chatter on here .

szkocjasid Posted September 30, 2023 Report Share Posted September 30, 2023 I'm obviously in the minority here, but I have no issue with Harris guesting for Ipswich in the semi & then Sheffield in the final. Riders guest all year round & can even knock their own team out of competitions. So can't see how this is a big issue, when his team isn't involved. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
