bigcatdiary 3,165 Posted October 19, 2017 Would you like some fish to go with that monster-sized chip? I doubt very much if Redcar are receiving a sizeable bung for the absence of Perks or Andersen - which was the primary rule broken by the current Peterborough promoter. I do agree that a team using SIX guests plus R/R is ridiculous does nothing for speedway's credibility. All the best Rob And of course it’s letting down the paying public which was another point levelled at Peterborough. You cannot have it both ways. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bigcatdiary 3,165 Posted October 19, 2017 5 riders injured. Can't blame Redcar for that. No that’s unfortunate but it’s not those 5 that’s raising the concern is it , it’s Perks gone home to Australia and Andersen gone on holiday My understanding is riders are contracted until the 31st October. It’s clear Redcar haven’t reported either rider for withholding services otherwise they would have appropriate facilities rather than NL 6 pointers. As a lot of the Redcar supporters are saying “they won’t be going” 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tigerblade 221 Posted October 19, 2017 5 riders injured. Can't blame Redcar for that. Exactly - and as we know, one of them wasn't even riding for Redcar when he got injured. It's a combination of a lot of unfortunate circumstances really - this meeting has been rained off three times already this season, and as everyone knows Redcar and Ipswich are ten times harder than anyone else to rearrange, so the meetings wouldn't have been called off lightly. Then Sheffield got involved with all the play off meetings and the KOC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SCB 0 Posted October 19, 2017 I get riders being injured, Redcar are just unluckily in that respect. But riders going home or on holidays during the speedway season? The BSPA have to clamp down on riders not being available, the current rules mean the riders get away with it if the club don't use a facility but it shouldn't be allowed.

romans lovechild 143 Posted October 19, 2017 why should perks not be allowed to go home,redcar should have finished their fixtures by now so he would have booked his flight according to the fixture list, are you not allowed to go home after your shift at work has finished then?
