Islander15 1,062 Posted November 22, 2015 Does Bowen have the relationship with this management like he does with Len though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waco 1,026 Posted November 23, 2015 (edited) Probably not Islander....And the points limit will need to be raised to at least 38 ,,probably 4o to accommodate any of last years top riders.... Edited November 23, 2015 by waco Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chopper 88 Posted November 25, 2015 Wonder if Branford will be interested now Would you after the way they stitched him up. Chopper Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hope Rob gets a team spot sooner rather than later. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waco 1,026 Posted November 26, 2015 (edited) Really tough on Rob Branford,,i feel he may have been ? a victim of unforseen circumstances regarding the attempted signing of other riders that went **** up.. for what ever reasons... Sincerly hope the points limit goes to at least 40 in the National League to allow Rob to get fixed up next season....

Sorry for Rob but it's actually probably a blessing. Things tend to turn out for the best.

westhamboy66 599 Posted November 27, 2015 Without boring you with too many details , Asked to commit, guaranteed ride Passed up other offers Dumped , found out on internet Chopper Taking that as gospel its a disgrace Many complained about Len Silver but all the riders were looked after, they were paid on time, and Len (sometimes to the detriment of the team) was loyal to the riders he employed. Since last season when the new bloke took over we have seen Mellgren and subsequently NBJ treated badly, all sorts of problems with individuals within the NL side. As a long time supporter i felt last season there was suddenly a stink about the place and that seems to have continued. I don't like what i see and hear and for me it's the whole speedway product not just assembling a decent team. Sorry to see Rob shafted as i think he was a pretty decent servant in his year at Rye.

waco 1,026 Posted November 28, 2015 Unfortunately we dont know the managements reasons for their actions and probably never will...I could hazzard a guess,,but will not on here,,, suffice to say there are always two sides to an argument and we are only hearing one...?

Ample opportunity for the "other" side of the story to be aired but as with Mellgren, NBJ, Silver Jnr and now Branford silence. See a pattern emerging?
