Is it time for the other riders to go down on bended knee? "JUSTICE FOR CONNOR"

Was he ever supposed to be riding?

Named as reserve before being booted by the BSPL. Perhaps all riders could do the parade without 1 boot on? Its sad and pathetic because they aren't brave enough to stop riders from a league meeting but still trying to throw their weight around and make a point that just doesn't need to be made.

Ivan had 3 world titles in 1970. He doesn't appear in the top 3 of the New Zealand Championship in 1970, 1971, 1972 or 1973 - or indeed in any before that.

I'm sure he would have at least once had ridden. Maybe he was based in another country?

didn't he ride in British finals then?

he was based in Manchester

Connor Coles not allowed to be a reserve as he rode on the IOW last week. Farcical from the BSPL

Sorry, being dense here but why does him riding on IoW last week matter?

The point i was making was super tai says he has nothing to prove i think he has everything to prove to his fellow riders and more important us fans? I just hope he dont turn up with the shouty boys to really rub our noses in it

It doesn't  (or it certainly shouldn't).

Its a typically spiteful, childish and totally unjustifiable action.

Reserve.

Because he rode on the IOW last week the BSPL have stopped him from being a meeting reserve for the British Final.

I think the point being made is what is the reasoning behind this?

At the moment all we have is a half-explanation from one side and mass hysteria is taking hold.

The BSPL said anyone racing on IOW would face a ban or fine

He hasn't got anything to prove at all.  The best British rider by far during the past 7 or 8 years.  Although Lambo and Bewley (to a certain extent) are slowly catching him up.

Just because he doesn't ride in the UK you have a hissy fit?  The £££'s are in Poland so that's where he's based himself.  It would be great to see him rider over here regularly, but he has decided that's not what he wants to do.  What's the problem with that?
