spin king 1,918 Posted March 3, 2019 If the rider was told that his services were no longer wanted then it is a poor show from the Newcastle Promotion. Whatever the reason for releasing a rider do it via text message is wrong. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So if a rider texts a promotion to say I'm going elsewhere as he's been offered a better deal which does happen as it did to the diamonds a few seasons ago & the rider was never mentioned which means that the promotion who have a hard enough job to assemble a team had to reschedule the team at the time & had to inform a couple of riders sorry but we've been dropped in it,,so is that WRONG 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They should have done it by facebook or whats app, texting is so old fashioned these days. Oh, and two wrongs don't make a right, apparently.

As it happens it was very touch & go that we ran last season but I can't really remember of the years I've gone that there has never been on the verge of shutting.. do you get your information off a doom & gloomer sauce I wonder 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ruffdiamond 6,115 Posted March 3, 2019 Actually, sacking someone via 'facetime' might be interesting, just to see the reaction. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dandelion 775 Posted March 3, 2019 (edited) What a great shame Victor has gone Not going to comment as I don't know the circumstances... All I can do is speculate the possible changes? Steve and Gino/Mikkel B in and Matty and Victor out maybe? Although I would love to see Tero back, interesting times ahead... Edit: Tero and Matej fit perfectly for Matty and Victor 1. Thomas Jorgensen 2. Nike Lunna 3. Lasse Bjerre 4. Matej Kus 5. Tero Aarnio 6. Danny Phillips 7. Max Clegg. Edited March 3, 2019 by Dandelion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
