Thoughts with Ben. Couldn't give a toss with all the talk about possible guests!!!!!

Jeez!

Not much we can do but wish him well. Eurosport didn’t even capture on camera what happened buy it sounds like he high sided and it could be a collar bone injury.

The reaction from everyone made it seem worse than a collarbone (fingers crossed not).

Apparently he was having a fit/seizure on the track according to Bewley

If that is true then that is awful, I hope he makes  a full recovery and thoughts go out to his family especially his parents who usually watch from Australia.

I don’t think Dan would say it if it wasn’t true

I understand where you're coming from, but avoiding talking about guests will not make Ben recover any quicker.

But people discussing options could end their posts like I will.

Get well soon Ben.

At home Josh Pickering or Chris Harris seem the best options. Away from home Erik Riss on his Premiership home track?

In the KOC & BSN, Poole may have more options. If he's not out for long, maybe guests won't be needed? Until we know his injuries, I always try & think positively.

Get well soon Ben.

I'm glad somebody else feels the same as I do.

My immediate reaction to seeing the discussions about replacements , when the lad was on his way to hospital under blue lights with paramedics in attendence (which is not a good sign at all) ; was one of uneasiness to put it mildly.

Unfortunately I have witnessed a fatality at a speedway meeting in the 1970's and a separate crash that resulted in paralysis and let us all pray to whoever our God is, or even if we dont believe in one, that this incident has an ending that is as positive as it can possibly be!

9 day concussion protocol from today!

Not sure about either at Oxford or Poole? Wright has already guested for Worky in play-offs and doesn't Riss have to be in a current Championship 1-7 to guest?

Don't think so as sure he has guested during this season in the Championship. Just have to convert his Prem average.
