Steve0 5,517 Posted July 4, 2015 5 Friday tracks out of 13 in the PL and Lakeside on a Friday too and with priority = no PL for Adam IMO Eh? In case you didn't notice Garrity and Serjeant both ride EL on a Friday and have PL teams (although Garrity didn't start the season in the PL) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
00000 1,279 Posted July 4, 2015 The simple fact is that there are not enough riders for the number of teams we have in the UK. Doubling up, fast track reserves-papers over the cracks Are there any other sports where a player (roder/driver) rides for two teams in the same country?

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,706 Posted July 4, 2015 Eh? In case you didn't notice Garrity and Serjeant both ride EL on a Friday and have PL teams (although Garrity didn't start the season in the PL)Garrity gave up his original place - possibily because of priority issues and Sarjeant was such a bargain 3 pointer it was worth the downsides.I believe that had Adam not been drafted with Lakeside and/or wasnt priorised to the EL that he wouldve had a PL place this year.

Players play super 15 for one team and npc for another though seasons do not run concurrently. When nz had its national football championship in the summer players would have a winter team and a summer team.Edited to add some rugby players might also play club grade rugby as well Edited July 5, 2015 by waihekeaces1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On that basis, nothing like speedway's muddle. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Countershaftcounter 360 Posted July 5, 2015 I'd heard that Adam had a couple of late PL offers but it would have meant dropping the Brummies in the poo one week before the start of the season. Also under current rules he's limited to what he can accept in the way of guest bookings etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fozzie4388 679 Posted July 7, 2015 Ash Birks season over he just announced on twitter. ashley birks @ashley_birks 1m1 minute ago Not good news today on the shoulder back again next week for more scans and decisions, but my season is finished thanks to both clubs +fans Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mdmc82 2,878 Posted July 24, 2015 (edited) Any word from Lakeside on if they are going to bring in a replacement for Birks? With them only being able to use riders below him as guests, it limits them a lot. Going to get even more restricted soon as they have used Wilkinson & J Wright 3 times already so only able to use them as guests on one more occasion.
