Do we play our strongest possible team in what will be our toughest Euro game and go all out?
Or do we protect players for Lions and Royals on Friday and Saturday?
I kind of think we've just got to keep playing our best team possible each match we face, give it 100 per cent and just take one game at a time?
Otherwise we disrespect a tournament weve aspired to compete in and put our own league ahead of it
What do you guys think?
Whoever plays will give 100 per cent that goes without saying. But who do we put out to play?
Will Rob think we can still even qualify by winning the last 3 games?
I wouldn't rule it out he thinks that TBH

I'd like to see you go 100% at it. I think it's been good in terms of making you a sharper team. A missed opportunity if you don't.

Guys you ARE in Europe, so why would you NOT go for it. Your Great Club has brought it to you so go for it. YOU are the Best team by a mile in the BBL so give the Bosses Credits and go for EVERY game. The club is Great not sure about the supporters.

Supported Riders for 30 years as have others around me. That's not loyal?

Yeah Riders have always had a hardcore fanbase ever since I started watching the BBL - and I saw them get blown away by near 50 away at Chester with Calvin Davis helping himself to 40 points. Still had a solid away following then.

Going slightly off-topic for a minute, I’ve noticed that Riders final game in this first group stage (and quite probably their final game in Europe this season) against Szolnoki Olaj on 21/11 is being advertised as ‘Free Entrance’. Is this a condition of FIBA, i.e. all teams must provide one free entrance game at their home arena?

I suspect a couple of Riders may be missing. Sassari by 30.

I watch most of the Games and noticed 'free entrance' on at least 2 of the other games(away) in Riders group . I can only assume its a Europe cup thing ... I'm just happy to watch for free on FIBA Youtube  |

Why was the club selling us ticket then? If it's correct then I'll be seeking a refund. |

Anyone know how bad Burnett’s injury is? Any chance of him featuring tomorrow?

Anything less than a complete gubbing will be a bonus today.

Saw the missing Riders players and, despite me wishing Riders good luck, thought I'd put a few quid on Dinamo to win!! Bet365 currently offering 13-1 against a Riders win and 1-90 for a home win. Think I won't risk £90 to win £1 on tonight's game.

Just checked the box score. Not listed. Riders have been terribly unlucky with injuries so far this season. I assume Holder is injured?
