TTT 1,227 Posted March 22 Plymouth will go under if they sign Garrity, People will legit walk away and Plymouth cant afford that to happen. Unfortunately for them I don't see another option unless they want to sign a rider like Ben Morley and just accept getting battered every week with the threat of fans walking away. Worrying times for the Gladiators, Hope everything works out well for you. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pinny 2,536 Posted March 22 Calls for a second chance for that crackhead Garrity are ridiculous. The guys a junkie who robbed old and vulnerable people. Has a big history of robbing team mates as well and being nothing but hassle as well as being a liability on track. Should never be granted a license to ride ever again and Lewy's comments must of been a wind up as nobody with half a brain would post such rubbish. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike0310 660 Posted March 23 I’ve backed my team through thick and thin and I no the devastation what some one like that has done, I also no what the person it’s happened to is like after wards if that man comes anywhere near Plymouth speedway I never will again I’d rather get beat every week that put money in his pocket. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Worrying times for the Gladiators, Hope everything works out well for you. Would Garrity even be better than Morley anyway? Not ridden for a few years. Won't have up to date equipment etc. I wouldn't pick him anyway, no matter how good he might be. Not after the crime he committed. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lisa-colette 6,031 Posted March 23 It's a shame the race night has moved in a way as might have been able to get someone like Rew (unless he is doing Sweden this year). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's OK then Are you suggesting that a drug dealer like Courtney, couriering tens of thousands of pounds worth of drugs, is not as bad as (say) Richie Worrall snorting a line of coke at a party? Seems a strange take! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seems a strange take! In terms of speedway of course it’s ‘not as bad’. I’d trust a drug mule to not cause an on track injury over a drug taker. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You put words in Steve Parks mouth, he only corrected what Mark Courtney was charged with, and you came out accusing him of saying one thing being worse than another. Now you’ve called it a bizarre take to trust a drug trafficker on a 60mph bike with no brakes, over a drug user? 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
