wealdstone 3,454 Posted November 21, 2017 Something not quite right!! At recent supporters club event word was there would be no appeal and Rathbone free to carry on if he so wished. Subsequent information would have it that there will be an appeal and Rathbone still suspended. No action or mention of Godfrey's fate which must assume will be minimal since he is still number 2 Mafia man and seems able to commence team building with no restrictions.

Baldyman 6,243 Posted November 21, 2017 (edited) So does anyone think ged has actually been stuffed from the south coast..but is choosing to stay tight lipped about it??? Or is it just Godfrey? I'm nearly starting to feel sorry for ged. There is still way more to this. Edited November 21, 2017 by baldyman 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
New era Panthers 2,055 Posted November 21, 2017 But would Panthers be able to enter the league without a promotor and necessary bond? I doubt it But would Panthers be able to enter the league without a promotor and necessary bond?

I believe SCB recommended there should be another hearing in Godfrey's case ,so innocent until proven guilty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wealdstone 3,454 Posted November 21, 2017 (edited) The Saga continues. Statement from SCB following meeting 7th November stated (1) BSPA taken on too much power (2) Decisions taken not in best interests of Speedway (3) No further action against Rathbone (4) Godfrey to face SCB court hearing However currently Godfrey still number 2 at BSPA, court hearing not happened or no date set,Godfrey free to proceed with team building. Rathbone it seems is still suspended , still has to appeal , therefore not able to commence team building. Seems BSPA have so far ignored action mentioned in statement , which seems to me grossly unfair. Edited November 21, 2017 by wealdstone 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes it is unfair if this is how it stands , as Panthers will not be allowed to start team building until ban is lifted and will lose out on prospective riders they maybe would be tracking , whilst the rest of the teams in championship take there pick and we would be left to pick up the dregs that no one else wants , which to me is an unfair advantage . Suppose if the BSPA can't get Ged one way they are going to get him another way . BSPA need to get moving on this as fans will suffer and some will drift away and never return . Who says Ged can't proceed with team building? Why do you think the silence is so deafening. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm nearly starting to feel sorry for ged. There is still way more to this. I think that he ignored the best advice given to him when Rick Frost allegedly warned him about that lot. If it was a management decision then Swales should have known better anyway. Then with all that in mind Rathbone still gambled and lost so it's hard to feel sympathy. Is there more to it? Maybe or maybe not. They'll just let it die down until people forget. Edited November 22, 2017 by Crump99 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
