Although he really should be adding to it this season, plenty of talent but too many ‘F’ and ‘EF’s’, hope he makes it to that ‘next step’ this year. My only concern with him would be in the past he has decided to take a break from speedway and then came back you just have to hope he's 100% committed.

All depends what insurance cover is provided as different types of session ( only one rider on track at a time, club ‘closed doors’ practice , ‘open’ practice, etc ) require different insurance levels and therefore different levels of medical cover.

Think you could be getting your metaphor's mixed up there Biffa... No smoke without fire maybe but never believe a rumour... especially one you made up yourself... Ziad K. Abdelnour once said "Always remember… Rumors are carried by haters, spread by fools, and accepted by idiots.” wise words eh... Think you got Shanghai there RoundTheBoards... more like RoundTheBend.... keep taking the pills Biffa and don't believe everything you hear... even if your telling yourself the rumours... Here's a fact (that's opposite to any rumour) no big wages no poaching of riders by Workington and they have definitley not been throwing big money at riders or trying to tempt them away from their clubs.... But Santa is real so be a good soul and you won't be getting a big lump of coal... Regards THJ 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
