Arson fire 4,785 Posted November 3, 2013 Is it not just polish riders can't ride in the PL?? Not riders who ride in Poland?? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
comet49 316 Posted November 3, 2013 You could be right, think Kilderrmand couldn't ride in the Cumberland Open on account of getting to Poland the next day Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dempo 124 Posted November 3, 2013 Richie cant ride PL if he goes to poland, (some stupid rule) What rule? Some PL riders rode in Poland this season, Olly Allen, Doyley, Claus vissing etc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DIAMONDS 159 Posted November 3, 2013 What rule? Some PL riders rode in Poland this season, Olly Allen, Doyley, Claus vissing etc Actually thinking about it i think it is polish riders who ride in poland are not allowed, a british or australian or anyone else is allowed to ride in britain if they ride in poland, sorry 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bringbackHalifax 238 Posted November 4, 2013 Think the point has been missed. Ritchie is riding Prem and Elite league next year if the two leagues still exist. He will not be riding for a weekend track which will give him some opportunities to do open meetings on the continent and get himself noticed. So the only difference at the moment from this season is that it rules out Newcastle as his prem league team. Right thought process and best wishes on the next chapter in his career.

Ben91 1,743 Posted November 4, 2013 (edited) One rider's availability is not enough to change race night for, it's a big upheaval for fans and not worth it. The last few seasons Newcastle have put very handy sides together and they will do next season again I'm sure. As for all the suggestions of Robert Lambert, I'm sure the lad won't give up his continental commitments to sign for a Sunday PL team. I would have liked to see him at Rye House and it did look like it could be a real possibility for a while but I can't even see that as we are a Saturday night track. As a young Brit with a big future I hope he does end up in the PL somewhere, stepping straight to the Elite a'la Bridger isn't a good move.

Heedthebaw 439 Posted November 4, 2013 All riders i think. If Bellego just signed in Poland he wont be able to ride in the PL next seasonn (i think) Only applies to Polish riders, unless they ride on Uk Licence and commit to every british fixture. As Poland use a squad system this can be done Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thats why I suggested Sheff or Scunny, may be wrong but thinking he's from Scunthorpe area Edited November 4, 2013 by comet49 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ruffdiamond 6,115 Posted November 4, 2013 Thats why I suggested Sheff or Scunny, may be wrong but thinking he's from Scunthorpe area he'd maybe drive past Sheffield to get to Scunny, (depending on route),,, and would most probably drive past Belle Vue to get to either,,, that's if he still resides at St.Helens,,, a dunno,,, maybe he's got himself a little pad somewhere :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StevePark 2,800 Posted November 4, 2013 I can almost guarantee Newcastle won't switch back to a Monday. Monday night matches are always less well attended than Sunday evening matches. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
