  1. too be honest i find it hard to believe they follow speedway close enough to know who replaces who they dont seam to care how many foriegn workers are taking the day to day jobs where i work we have less than 100 perminent staff topped up with a few agency workers when we get busy periods and we have 5 different foriegn nationalitys working with us surely if they werent working for us thoose places would be filled by british workers speedway is no different to other employments apart from the skilled workforce is not as high a standard in britten
  2. sorry but i disagree they allready stick 2 fingers up to the prem league when signing riders they can sign them and never use them the prem league clubs can only sign a assett if they use them for set number of meetings
  3. i was led to believe he had a ride lined uptowards the end of last season for a few meetings in poland but had to pull out due to the fixture back log in the uk
  4. hard to believe its 5 years still sad when its brought up though worrall wont be left without a job
  5. if there was enough british riders up to the quality we demand then you would have a argument but the simple fact is we need overseas riders to get the standard up high enough to run the leagues maybe explains why newcastle have not anounced many riders yet
  6. im not so sure charles fits in well down somerset hes liked by both the promotion and the fans but i do understand hes got thet sort of average that might just go against him
  7. they might prefer to keep him on a 7 if they believe in him and therefor would have to adjust elsewhere if it comes to it
  8. the thing is when you sign a 9pt rider you expect 10 to 12 points most meetings when you sign a 3 or 4 pt reserve if they score there average with the odd meeting higher there doing there job
  9. very brave rider is richard hall can ride the boards with the best of them at times
  10. glasgow is a team i would love to do well fans (allthough they have died down recently) were all very pasionate and friendly and also very knowledgable about speedway wish them all the sucsses they deserve as this is the redcar page id better say that i also think the redcar fans are also very pasionate about speedway
  11. lawson was never havvys kozza was in talks maybe but was never havvys theres a lot of talk about glasgow outbidding other teams if thats true where is the money coming from as glasgow have been pleeding poverty in recent years low crowds and low income?
  12. yeah proberbly did come over on a 7 or whatever but the point is all the foreign or aussie riders are not rubish british riders start off on a 3 if they dont have the experience and after that it shouldnt matter what country they come from it should depend what level they have rode at and all should start on the same assessed average 5 7 or 9 nationality isnt a indication of the standard you ride at
  13. think your being disrespectfull and josh isnt classed as a aussie he dosnt require visa due to his polish conection jason crump ,craig watson,mick powell,shane parker ........ must all have been rubish then in your book
  14. that alone sugests there a little uneasy themselves
  15. this was rumored to be the case wonder if scunthorpe did actually drop interest because they were under impression he would be a 7pt rider this is why keep saying i would like offical statement on the matter teams and riders could be missing out on there targeted places
  16. nice too see a somerset fan at least aknowledge there could be a problem this dosnt just affect somerset it affects all teams 1 way or another would really like some offical statement on this 1 way or the other
  17. if you want something bad enough you will pay for it most of us would switch jobs if the pay offer was too good to refuse id love to have the average wage and if i got chance i would leave my current job aslong as the job offer was a sound 1
  18. its all getting silly now untill we get offical news/statements we are all just voicing our opinions and repeating which ever version we believe if it turns out holder should be on a 7 or other new aussies come in on a 7 then next year maybe the limit should be 42.50 for other clubs and 38.50 for somerset therefor when they do go over by 2 points they will still be 2 under everyone else to make up for the 2 seasons they got away with it but as ive said untill offical statement we dont know for sure what the score is but all riders and clubs must use the same rule book at all times take some beating berwick posts they always seam to win hands down on that count
  19. tony rickardsen thretend to take his parant club (ipswich i think) to court under the bosman rule if they didnt let him out on loan they soon gave in regardless off team or rider if a club owns a riders contract then i think they should have option of using them or letting out on loan or put them up for sale similar to that dreaded game foot ball to many riders sign for the richer clubs and never ride for them
  20. as much as i think he could be a good prem league rider i wouldnt think hell improve by anyway near that margin
  21. theres a big clue in previous posts on this thread
  22. and there possibly lies the problem maybe they were talking to him on a 5 but when he sudenly became a 7 maybe too much of a short term risk if hes a 7 for some teams hes a 7 for somerset aswell
  23. if josh rides for poole they will have first choice
