  1. You have more chance of finding out if you neighbours in the Masonic Lodge than riders pay rates.!!!!! Most No1's will think they are a top rider and can't see all the rest of the team riding for less than1/2 there team mates.In 2007 I spoke to a rider who was earning £80 appoint as an Elite League reserve.
  2. Could this be part of the confusion and the reason for the BSPA ruling,In Scotland you can self - certificate for work purposes for 7 days before you have to produce a sickness certificate from a doctor.So Cook can say he is ill( non speedway related) and not need a certificate.If the guy is ill fair enough ,BUT!!!!!!
  3. Correct, it all a bit of a farce ,maybe Sedgeman will be back in time for Christmas if Ipswich reach the final though!!!!!!!!!!
  4. Certain riders think Gb is only a stepping stone to Europe (which in a few cases it is)and have very little regard for the fans who finance them.Regs need tightened and implemented 100% no vague interpretation.
  5. Any rider should get a ban IMO .The season ends October 31st,I speedway it's pretty common for postponements and fixture changes before END of Season.
  6. Overseas riders that miss meetings because of leaving the Country should have a ban imposed IMO.Like fans say the official end the is Oct 31 st.When arranging their flights they should take that into consideration .
  7. Sorry ,I was not referring to the season ticket offer.i was replying to confirm 2nd leg date ,post seems to be missing.I do agree with you though.Also the bit about last 3 meetings tickets seems abit of a weird one.
  8. Sounds pretty horrendous ,hope he can make progress to better health.Fantastic rider and entertainer. So sad it has ended like this.
  9. In view of chairman's comment that the sport is doing OK in GB.,and most clubs are reporting increased attendances,let's have fans view of their Club. Simple Up or Down will do.
  10. Like I said earlier without JG and KH Sheffield were always going to be up against it.Have seen a lot worse matches than that.Leicester riders were sharper out the gate all night.Dont see what all the fuss is about.
  11. Wasnt in original field ( not sure why)injured now supposedly . Total plonker in my book,just taking th p#ss.Like he said rides to suit himself.That could backfire on him one day.
  12. He maybe has you pencilled in for aTeam spot.!!
  13. Be honest did you really expect any other answer from him these days,it's a closed shop and they are deluded which the average fan already knows.
  14. Without JG and KH they were never going to win it, but would have made it a better contest.Oops Josh Bates let slip he rides for both Teams Nigel and Kelvin were very quiet on that subject.
  15. the gap between best and reserves is massive just now IMO .I don't agree there is not enough riders to go round we just have too take a step back to go forward again! Riders riding for every team in the league is just dragging the credibility of the sport down.Its only 4 rider/ 4 laps doesn't suit every fan.You have you get it back to being a genuine Team sport again.
  16. I think fans are just fed up with the nonsense that the sport has become,it's a decent track and has some good racing,like my visits there.Here's hoping the racing continues next season.
  17. Sorry,got it wrong. Sorry, my mistake. He seems. Bulletproof.Any excuse does.
