Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted July 13, 2011 (edited) How stupid will you lot look if Sayfutdinov does ride now?? The rules are very clear. If a rider is declared to ride in the first round and fails to ride, for whatever reason other than being blocked from entering The UK or illness, then he will not be allowed to ride in the remainder of the SWC. The fact that Saifudinovs excuse is that he couldn't be arsed doesn't bode well for his chances of riding in the race off, regardless of the Russians annuncing him in their lineup. The Russians clearly don't know the rules and if vice president of the FIM sys he isn't allowed, then that is the case. (Unless the FIM don't follow through their own rules, which would make the sport a laughing stock) Edited July 13, 2011 by Steve Shovlar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pandorum 1,259 Posted July 13, 2011 (edited) He was no worse or better than any of the previous managers (including himself). What exactly did people expect him to do? Win the SWC? He is like his footbal equivalent. Lumbered with a lot of reasonably talented people who can never perform as a team.
