Berwick Academy won in the end, but it was nip and tuck all the way. Great stuff! Pleased you enjoyed it as the dad of one of the Berwick lads can’t tell you how much he enjoys being part of the club and the support he’s given by those who stay behind. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because people was saying he will be banned for 7 days and where does it say he was missing due to a family member? The Lakeside website just says illness.

Seems to be that facilities are granted for just about anything nowadays . Workington got one for Proctor when his paperwork wasn't in order yet , Edinburgh got one for Andersson when he was riding in Poland instead of at Glasgow , so no surprise at this one . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think you get a facility for a family member being ill. But this is speedway, so any rule can be bent or broken at any time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
screm 8,050 Posted April 30, 2018 Is there not a rule now where you can bring in a guest for any of your top three, though the reasons for Lakeside being granted a guest facility on Saturday do seem ever so slightly spurious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No regulation in the book to alliw a facility for that Either Saturdays facility was against the regs or him returning within 7 days is This reg is actually one that has been amended this year exactly to avoid this type of situation yet has been ignored...

TonyE 822 Posted April 30, 2018 Compassion may have come into it somewhere. As with most things speedway, I doubt an official explanation will be forthcoming. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
