Torun used R/R for Doyle last Sunday- for them to do so Doyle must have agreed that he couldn`t ride for 14days from the Cardiff crash- which means the first date is Sunday 5th when he is due to ride in the Polish Extraleague riders championships in Gdansk. So basically Torun are calling the shots over British speedway. Don't get me wrong, if medically 14 days is the preferred option fine but it should be universal and not just Poland. Surely concussion is a subject on which the whole of world speedway should agree. Edited August 1, 2018 by Star Lady added words 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shouldn't the SCB/BSPA be calliing on the FIM to do so. They could hold a conference on the subject somewhere hot and sunny to discuss it so there should be a good attendance 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So why don't the British authorities challenge it with the FIM. Toothless comes to mind. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thats my point - how can Poland insist he rides NOWHERE for 14 days Yes not within 14 days in Poland but if his time out within UK rules has expired and he felt fit to ride then Poland should not be able to dictate 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Josh being on a Polish licence allows him to ride where he likes around Europe without the requirements of a work permit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully in 2019 there will be 3-4 of these international fixtures. Glasgow, Belle Vue, Peterborough and Somerset should be the venues. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
