Scorpison 21 Posted September 9, 2018 Phillipsr, your three latest postings just highlight what an arse hole you really are. By just coasting round showing two fingers is not taking the piss out of Rob Godfrey, it is taking the piss out of his team mates, and us paying supporters, who have actually stuck by Phillips all season hoping that he did show some signs of looking like a Speedway Rider, but week after week he just turned up and rode half a lap behind all other riders, some that have never seen our track before.] To say that he had been injured last season was in Robs thoughts when giving him the reserve ride for Scunny, not only has he ridden all this season, he was also part of our National league team possibly 6 years ago, I remember him vividly, because Phillips and Fenwick used to trundle round bringing up the rear every race, just like Phillips has done this season. In my opionion he must be really thick skinned to turn up when management and the supporters have had more than their share of him. HE IS THE WORST RIDER EVER TO HAVE BEEN ENGAGED BY SCUNTHORPE.

Tunnel vision ...you’re the best example of it Godfrey tried his best to screw up others chances and it’s all back fired , Worky currently sitting second in the league , you lot have to come to us and get a win to get any further in the Championship Shield ,good luck with that one ! So young Danny probably only a couple of meetings to do so hopefully he will trundle round at the back and stick two fingers up to Godfrey as Philipsr says, just like we have Edited September 9, 2018 by Taylorj Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

spin king 1,915 Posted September 9, 2018 Putting aside what Rob Godfrey has done in the past allegedly this season and concentrating the Phillips situation. Its clear that the rules state that you cannot drop a rider after cut off date. The only way that the rider can be replaced is if the said rider is injured or decides that he want to be dropped. if it is the latter the rider will then receive a 28 day ban. And that my friends is why Phillips continues to turn out for Scunthorpe. Because if he did not then he would be deemed to be withholding his services and would be unable to ride for his other club Coventry in the National League. If anybody is looking for anyone to blame for the Phillips fiasco it lies fairly and squarely at the shoulders of Rob Godfrey. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JPB originally said he wanted to take a break from speedway, only to change his mind the following day and asked to ride National League for Birmingham.
