KEITH M 850 Posted October 11, 2014 I was at Edinburgh at it was an appalling performance.. Worst I have seen from a Diamonds team in a long time, we weren't getting just beat we were the length of the straight behind in most races... As for Richie disappointed in the way he has let promotion down.. Also I heard George only found out on Thursday when he had rung Richie for chit chat to tell him about start time etc.. If George hadn't made that call when was Richie going to tell him he was unavailable?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris Hutcheson 32 Posted October 11, 2014 I'd be more worried about your current riders commitment after last night's showing than the commitment of a guest. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tsunami 10,219 Posted October 11, 2014 earlier in the season, when big changes were made,,, apparently, one of them found out on facebook,,, charming Hardly 'binning riders at the drop of a hat'. Fans were shouting out for a number 1 and delayed it, hoping the top 5 would crack it and we would get back to winning. We didn't, so the Danny and Robert deal was tried, but failed in Roberts case. General feeling here was the club waited too long.(ask TWK who banged on about every minute). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Better to have been able to give it a go, rather than now just accept defeat. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tsunami 10,219 Posted October 12, 2014 (edited) a weekend in Poland,,, or a miserable night in Byker,,, it's a no-brainer ;-) Yes I quite agree . He should have honoured the booking he accepted, but only by accident told George 11 days later he was off to Torun instead. Is that being professional.
