Yes originally I heard he paid his own. He said it himself. No one will ever know the truth. Unless one of the bspa or tai reveal it themselves Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dazzafl 212 Posted August 18, 2016 (edited) He didn't claim for any expenses??!! didn't claim for any flights/travel/fuel or accomodation costs for his team to be there... you would think food and drink would be sorted by the team at least.. i would think so anyway Edited August 18, 2016 by Dazzafl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

salty 2,190 Posted August 18, 2016 (edited) No garlic bread or wedges. Would be no surprise if it's down to finance. Unfortunately, it is understandable that the BSPA, which is made up of promoters and promotions who are not exactly awash with money, want to keep a tight hold on the purse strings. I guess their logic is that they don't actually gain too much from a successful GB team. Whole episode begs a few questions? Is the World Cup a viable entity? Is money being made? And if so who gets it? Edited August 18, 2016 by salty Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shale Searcher 1,264 Posted August 18, 2016 (edited) didn't claim for any flights/travel/fuel or accomodation costs for his team to be there... you would think food and drink would be sorted by the team at least.. i would think so anyway Surely, he wouldn't be allowed to claim expenses travelwise, except from his UK home address to Belle Vue and back home.... So around 160 miles @ 48p tops.. Surely he wasn't expecting travel costs from Poland or where ever else he rides in Europe....

Woz01 3,589 Posted August 18, 2016 All this over pizza? Brilliant. Clubs don't pay mechanics expenses so why should GB? Mechanics are employed by the rider. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So around 160 miles @ 48p tops.. Surely he wasn't expecting travel costs from Poland or where ever else he rides in Europe.... he didnt expect anything he was paying it out of his own pocket.. travel in any of the 3 leagues is from where you are to where you need to go thats as it is.. its a standard thing All this over pizza? Brilliant. Clubs don't pay mechanics expenses so why should GB? Mechanics are employed by the rider. he wasnt claiming for his mechanics.. as said he was paying all expenses.. wow this has turned into pizza.. i am out of here..

I fail to see why the British authorities should pay any expenses other than that. It's Woffindens choice to ride abroad so the consequences are down to him alone, 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
