Dickie Head 247 Posted October 30, 2016 I do hope there is a minute of silence to respect the memory of Dave Lanning who did so much for the Eagles in the late 60's and early 70's. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
00000 1,279 Posted October 30, 2016 Fair point. Not even having a preview on the website is very poor show. One there now. Halifax Tiger gets things done - gather he will be on the Eastbourne publicity team next year. Man of action! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevec 300 Posted October 30, 2016 Regarding Georgie, I understand his girlfriend was being induced on Wednesday and that why he could not go to Brumland. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil The Ace 2,860 Posted October 30, 2016 No shanes for brummies. Eagles objected his inclusion due to the 7 day guest rule. Brummies rise with 5 riders only now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brummiestormer 172 Posted October 30, 2016 They knew Shanes was booked a while ago why wait until now to object....desperate or what! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brummiestormer 172 Posted October 30, 2016 (edited) .................and they call us a win at all costs team haha ; robbed the fans of a close meeting; tbh they had one hand on the cup anyway!! A shame because a good spirit was developing on here between the sets of fans which is now going to fall into acrimony again over this i fear! Yes Shanes name is in the prog and he's at the track ready to race...oh the joys of speedway! Edited October 30, 2016 by Brummiestormer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brian 63 Posted October 30, 2016 Quite amusing how you're trying to deflect blame because of Brum management not knowing the rules. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just feel sorry for the fans who have travelled down for this debacle and whatever the right and wrongs are the fans have been robbed but hey ho enjoy your hollow win!

solrac 313 Posted October 30, 2016 TBH we would rather Shanes rode, so if he doesn't it won't just be disappointing for your mob. Hopefully we've got it wrong and he'll emerge at the tapes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iand 133 Posted October 30, 2016 Does this now mean that we will have 3 races with 3 riders only and Shane's 4th ride being taken by a reserve? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 10,781 Posted October 30, 2016 (edited) Unusual for a promoter of Drury's experience to make such a ricket. That said protesting just before the start is poor. Speedway shoots itself in the foot yet again! Edited October 30, 2016 by Gordon Bennett 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
