Wee Eck 703 Posted May 28, 2023 1 hour ago, Paul Johnson said: not sure but was told on way to redcar that he was out and had been ringing around for teams spots I’d be surprised if Garritty was out yet. He was arrested in April 2020 sentenced to 7 and a half years in October 2020. Assuming he was remanded in custody in the April and his sentence is deemed to start from arrest rather than conviction, the best he can hope for is a release after serving half his sentence, so that would be 3 years and 9 months which would take us to January next year. In view of his crimes, I would hope that his licence has been permanently revoked 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As I knew it wasn't possible because of where Garrity is currently residing, I asked some questions. I was told that he was offering to make himself available to a couple of National League teams, which couldn't be right... after a few further questions, it turned out that the person interested in a team place was actually JASON GARROD! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now that makes sense. Thanks for clearing it up 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even if he was available, I would be surprised if anyone wanted to see Garrity back after what he did. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He could be a great signing, he has the ability to score a lot of points in this league. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scunny1 436 Posted May 29, 2023 Good signing in Drew Kemp, I've only been asking for him since November. Rob eventually listens and gets the right message. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pinny 2,551 Posted May 29, 2023 10 grand sign on fee for Kemp? Not worth ten quid. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IronScorpion 1,408 Posted May 29, 2023 Godfrey has always stuck to his beliefs in that ..... "if you want to ride for Scunthorpe, this is what I pay & on time". This is why, I feel that, when we have guests they ride for us & not race for us. I can not remember who said that Drew had asked for a 10k signing on fee or 2 bikes but Rob would not do that, never mind how desperate he is. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
