I was there and the home fans were very hostile, the track was unridable it wasn't revenge the safety of the riders is paramount and even the home team had reservations. The track had already ended the career of one Redcar rider, how many would be enough for you? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Col 849 Posted March 29, 2022 I don't want any riders career ended prematurely. The track that night looked much better than it had for some meetings, the Leicester visit springs to mind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dave_minall 232 Posted March 30, 2022 I've been of the impression for several years that Auty rolls over his equipment from season to season without getting new bikes/gear. Judging by this season's photos of his equipment it seems that he is still using old gear. The bloke just clearly doesn't give two hoots about the sport and being professional and I'm surprised that it's taken this long for people to notice. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In 2019 I saw him wheel 2 filthy bikes in to the Pits at a meeting after he'd ridden the night before. Doesn't take 30 mins at at last get the hose out and make an effort. Giving him the benefit of the doubt though as in a recent Speedway Star article he did conform that he had gone through a very acrimonious separation and divorce that will have impacted on that period and possibly his ability to invest too much in new gear. Sometimes things go on that we don't know about and there are 2 sides to every story and every image. I'd love nothing more than for him to get competitive and bang in a solid 7 point average season.

Whilst I agree we don't know the whole picture and yes some element of discrepancy can be forgiven, but like I said I've been paying keen attention to his gear for literally years and there doesn't seem to be any new gear being used.
