Ned Kelly 41 114 Posted July 1, 2015 Yes, Peterborough. Except the move will be "pending BSPA approval" as it looks a bit iffy. I rest my case...... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crescent girl 1,908 Posted July 1, 2015 Bandits currently in top six, and have raced (along with Worky) fewer matches than the rest of the league. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
penchev 342 Posted July 1, 2015 Yes, Peterborough. Except the move will be "pending BSPA approval" as it looks a bit iffy. And indeed it has been blocked, #crazyrulebook Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crescent girl 1,908 Posted July 1, 2015 And indeed it has been blocked, #crazyrulebook I don't think it is crazy to ignore a written rule, it is at that point you would create a precedent. Berwick had a few moves blocked back in wee Peter's day, but since the current promotion came in and Dennis began to handle the paperwork, the club has been better-served in such matters. Peterborough's biggest mistake was announcing the planned signing without even adding the caveat of "pending BSPA approval" although the sensible way to do things is not announce anything at all until signed, sealed and delivered. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

me2 80 Posted July 4, 2015 What a ride that was by Richard Hall. Awfully close to the safety fence in the second and third bends. Superb. Big balls needed for long track. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

me2 80 Posted July 4, 2015 I've never been able to decide if speedway rules are meant to be ambiguous to allow for a bit of jiggery-pokery when it suits them, or if the rule makers are just downright incompetent. More likely they're incontinent with all the pish they come out with. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
