Merely pointed out that interpretation and application of the rules as they currently stand aren’t complex. And are they only thing that matter on a thread discussing tomorrow’s meeting. Nope, haven't got the wrong post. You're banging the 'innocent until proven guilty' drum of somebody who produced a 'non-negative' sample - i.e of somebody who had a banned substance in their system. It's not like a 'maybe it was' in his system, it 'was' in his system. I'm pretty sure that would construe a defence in most people's eyes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here’s what I said. If to you its a defence so be it. Not intended to be. Don’t know any facts so have no opinion. Once concluded, we’ll see. 5 hours ago, MalDon45 said: Non-negative result = Precautionary suspension of licence, pending findings of the B sample. As such, presumed innocent until proven otherwise. Anyway. Great line up for the Gladiators. Well done Gary and Mark. Hopefully the Brummies do well in the guest market too. Here’s to a good competitive meeting. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike0310 660 Posted August 1, 2022 (edited) I don’t no if it’s been said earlier but mr barker and Plymouth speedway must be pretty confident of the outcome as he was at Plymouth argyle on Saturday with young ben trigger showing of there bikes and promoting the club and I’d find that very weird if he’d done anything seriously wrong.

Yeah saw that on Ben Barker's Instagram. Might have been agreed for him to do it before the failed drugs test though and if Plymouth back him, can't exactly tell him not to do it. I am making a lot of assumptions here though. Reading the Ipswich thread looks like they are replacing him? So looks like just be riding for Plymouth when he comes back.

On Barker it looks like he's been a proper silly BOY from what I was told at Edinburgh last Friday night off a fellow rider .. allegedly Edited August 1, 2022 by Justgotmecpc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Richie Worrall (for Edward Kennett) R/R for Alfie Bowtell Lewis Kerr (for michael Palm Toft) Danyon Hume (for Hans Andersen) Josh Pickering (for Ben Barker) Ben Morley Harry McGurk anyone got news on brummies team yet?? Pickering's average is too high for him to take the place of one of our absentee's ? Could of had Basso for Auty though ? (surely its about cost...) nothing to ride for so why go all out?

I’m a Plymouth fan and most certainly hope it’s a closer score than that. No one likes it when a team runs away with a meeting. best of luck to both sides tonight Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
