Yeah..opportunity?..One way or another, the kid was badly advised and was poached away from Scunthorpe...He was progressing well at Scunny before he upped n opted to sign for Coventry/Dudley, somewhere down the line his progression has been halted. Had the kid stayed at Scunny he'd of benefitted from plenty free practice, given time to develope, who knows how his career may have panned out....now the poor kids on the Scrapheap.
I'm with the majority on here..call it what you want..the third tier of British Speedway should be for the development of British talent only.
