IF some of the issue are private and personal then they should not necessarily be placed in the public domain. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was making more of a tongue in cheek comments about speedway and transparency to the paying public in this case. Obviously every case should be treated on its own merits.

Jack didn’t elaborate further but it seems we could be announcing CH back into the team very shortly. Well Chris has tweeted 'happy ' in the last ten mins or so..

Trees 2,814 Posted April 9, 2018 Have you listened to Hancock’s Reel45 where Chris says time and time again that he’s waiting for his passport and can’t do anything without it (why he didn’t say).  He also says that he has all the same probs as last year re his son and ex but is coping with the situation better which hopefully is a positive for his fans and clubs. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or he could just say ?  I listened to that same podcast the other day. He mentions in the podcast about this all starting in December and still goes on up til now. He also mentions the kid issues in the same breath. Non uk residents can apply for a visa based on being a parent exercising access rights. I do wonder if Holder has gone along these lines to get a visa here and the partner is mischief making to slow it up.  To me, it sounds like the mother has lodged some kind of refusal of access or something which has cocked his application up , and that has maybe impacted on his ability to just get a swift re-issuing of his visa.  Maybe he's had to reapply along the conventional visa terms ? Just my opinion reading between the lines and asking a few questions of people i know..     Edited April 9, 2018 by The Doctor... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NOBODY 538 Posted April 10, 2018 Personal issues are personal. Nothing to do with any fan. No point in speculating. Some people think they are owed an explanation into every riders or managers decisions and private lives. I don't expect any of us would like our dirty washing aired in public. Read last week's Speedway Star if you need to catch up on Chris' issues. That's public enough I would imagine. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
