leander 495 Posted October 16, 2017 A mixed reaction for young Robert last night ........... even the promoters weren't expecting him ..... toft in as cover and George's tongue in cheek comments about Roberts recovery I did note Roy didn't ask Robert about the smash he was involved in ............ which injured his leg And the rumours were true yesterday .......... the cookie monster is out for 7 days under BSPA ruling Not quite. Try SCB not BSPA . They're not the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yearbyred 1,103 Posted October 16, 2017 (edited) Just read that Redcar will be using 6 guests and R/R at Sheffield on Thursday. They had wanted to use Jacob Bukhave as he's a Redcar asset but this has been refused (you cant have riders riding for their own team apparently).I assume the team line up will be similar on Sunday.

BenR195 113 Posted October 16, 2017 Jonas will be back for Sunday, our fixture at Sheffield was originally planned for Monday but they brought it forward, meaning jonas was unavailable Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brilliant....😁😁😁 And to think some people and much of the media don't take British Speedway seriously.... Hope Sheffield have extra turnstiles on, don't want the queues backing up too far...

The ruling body have made a complete and utter balls up of the sport , and it may be terminal thanks mainly to them being totally incompetent.

TheScotsman 2,483 Posted October 16, 2017 6 guests plus 1 r/r. But Busting Chapman wants more guests. So is he going to scrap r/r? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mauger65 202 Posted October 17, 2017 well its hardly a surprise given the league only had 10 teams and 70 riders to choose from .... and riders like bach and kus were left with no teams we need a bigger league Not quite. Try SCB not BSPA . They're not the same. I do apologise .......... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leander 495 Posted October 17, 2017 well its hardly a surprise given the league only had 10 teams and 70 riders to choose from .... and riders like bach and kus were left with no teams we need a bigger league I do apologise .......... Apology accepted. lol. The BSPA get a lot of stick. Mostly justified. The SCB don't seem to get any stick at all, yet they deserve to get a lot of it, especially when they twist and ignore, or go against the governing body's rules. I just like to see the knife stuck in the proper place. Just read that Redcar will be using 6 guests and R/R at Sheffield on Thursday. They had wanted to use Jacob Bukhave as hes a Redcar asset but this has been refused (you cant have riders riding for their own team apparently). I assume the team line up will be similar on Sunday. He may be an asset but he's not in there declared 1 to 7 or is he in anybody elses. So tough. There would have been hell on this forum if Wolves had brought Woffinden back to ride in the playoffs, KOC final. He's a wolves asset. However stupid the rule appears it needs to be applied consistently Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However stupid the rule appears it needs to be applied consistently Whilst I totally agree rules should be applied consistently across the board, you do wonder if a bit of commonsense could be applied at times. Fine if the match had relevance ie affected play-off positions, actually a play-off match or a cup match - then it would be appropriate to enforce the ruling, however these last two matches for redcar are meaningless fixtures which should have been held weeks/months ago but for various reasons were not and now just need to be completed. It's obvious that they have been crippled by injuries (not just a cough/sneeze) and have suggested a way to make the team representing the Bears look a little like an actual Bears team - you never know by including Bukhave it might just persuade some fans to travel and watch the match, thereby benefitting the home promotions. I certainly don't see it as a way to vastly strengthen the team!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
