If I was traveling to Redcar I think I would want a better explanation for Tero's absence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Godfrey abusing his position by giving himself the R/R facility for a rider who was absent , not ill , not even in the country , and it won’t be the last time by the sounds of it. Palin would have sealed the win for theScorpions had he not been injured. McDonald was the surprise package , unlucky to be excluded ( could have gone the other way ) and the clash with Wright removing his chain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When was the last time you were able to get a sick note at 24 hours notice?, it simply doesn’t happen in the UK as you self certificate ( in other words don’t get a sick note ) for 7 days. The rule was (is it still ?) a rider who went ‘sick’ , non speedway related, was then barred for 9 days so that they couldn’t pick and chose which match to miss, just another speedway anomaly.
