uk_martin 1,606 Posted July 29, 2017 So he's not injured, is that what you're claiming? I'm not claiming anything, just said it was a very good question. It is a mystery though isn't it, that after his poor showing against the worlds best at Leszno and Cardiff, that he's aggravated an old injury, and can't face the worlds best again, and on a Polish track too, isn't it? Anyone who's been around the speedway scene for more than 5 minutes knows how questionable that can sound. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PHILIPRISING 7,298 Posted July 29, 2017 DIDN'T ride for BV on Monday and cannot see why he would have missed that if he wasn't carrying an injury. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He missed Belle Vue's on Monday, do you really think he would stiff the club he loves riding for just so he could swerve a trip to Poland? Why can't he just be genuinely injured, it's speedway, it's dangerous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PHILIPRISING 7,298 Posted July 29, 2017 A BACK injury isn't necessarily the result of a speedway accident. Hancock dislocated his shoulder after slipping on the stairs at his home. Golfer Dustin Johnson did a similar thing and missed the Masters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
