WembleyLion 413 Posted March 29, 2014 So in Kennett's case a PL challenge takes preference but not in Barker's case! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cityrebel 2,960 Posted March 29, 2014 I totally agree with you Eddie. I'm finding it harder to justify spending money on speedway these days, weakened line ups, stupid rules and a race format that will take a few weeks to get used to, and the season has only just begun!

bigcatdiary 3,165 Posted March 29, 2014 So in Kennett's case a PL challenge takes preference but not in Barker's case! Same for Panthers, we are missing Blackbird and Jacobs (both EL fixtures tonight) whilst Kennett and Lambert are riding for Rye in a CH rather than Brum in an EL fixture, its bloody ridiculous, either official fixtures take precedence or they dont. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brumspur 0 Posted March 29, 2014 (edited) Same for Panthers, we are missing Blackbird and Jacobs (both EL fixtures tonight) whilst Kennett and Lambert are riding for Rye in a CH rather than Brum in an EL fixture, its bloody ridiculous, either official fixtures take precedence or they dont. The Plymouth v Somerset challenge meeting also sees Barker released from Plymouth to ride for Brum tonight but Paul Starke not released by Somerset to ride for Brum in the same EL fixture? A catalogue of double up rider availability inconsistencies in just one evening of speedway! Edited March 29, 2014 by brumspur Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alan_Jones 1,005 Posted March 29, 2014 depends on who signed them 1st as they get priority if there not respective assetts of those clubs Irrespective of that, a league match should take priority over a challenge but in this enlightened age it seems that PL teams are having to give "special permission" for "their" d/u riders to appear in EL matches. Just another blow to the claims by some that the PL is the better league. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevebrum 6,821 Posted March 29, 2014 depends on who signed them 1st as they get priority if there not respective assetts of those clubs I always thought it was club asset first, then PL club 2nd if not asset? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 10,781 Posted March 29, 2014 It shouldn't matter who the rider is an asset of or who they signed for first, official fixtures should take precedence over challenge matches every single time, irrespective of league. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
