Not much home track advantage then Lewy for the first few weeks - assuming the meetings are going to be on? 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? Wasn't Courtney banned once for failing a drug test? May not of been , it would of been a while ago. Garrity was allegedly into all sorts of drugs but that seemingly isn't the issue. Roger Lobb and Frank Smart were banned for failed tests yet came back and were successful - Smart's best season was the year he came back after he was banned. Its the crimes Garrity committed whilst under the influence of drugs that sit badly with anyone with any self respect or morals. Mugging OAPs is one of the lowest crimes you can commit. No excuses , drug addict or not. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can't honestly remember if he was banned for drugs, but the kind of drug dealing Courtney was involved in was not tiny amounts, and I can't imagine someone being a drug dealer of that level without having been a user to some extent. You don't get many vegan butchers. So using the odd morals of some people, a mugger of grannies is far safer to be in Speedway than Mark Courtney, Richie Worrall, Frank Smart, or Roger Lobb. But back to the subject in hand, can anyone actually confirm, did the Plymouth Press Day take place today? And if so, did they name the full team? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
