King's Lynn v Ipswich 25/07/24

If only it were only 2 wrongs - even you lot in Norfolk don't have enough fingers and toes to keep up with that count -

Yet a team can drop a rider at any time with no notice and no financial liability Qutting/withholding services carries a 28 day ban - once served he should be free to ride elsewhere If not every dropped rider should be due a full seasons income for such a binding contract -

If KL are blocking the Witches from using TM then I would hope they encourage the team to refuse any guest bookings... -
We will never know if there was really a difference as in the gap between his aborted comeback there was no qualifier or Polish meeting Brady only missed an extra BV meeting whilst "reinjured" If there had been an important individual meeting or a scheduled Polish meeting I believe he would've ridden but that is only an opinion not fact

I tend to agree with the principle you set out - makes a lot of sense although it effectively makes the ban for withholding a whole season rather than 28 days For that to be fair however I would say riders would argue for that to happen any rider dropped would need to be paid for the season (or until redeployed) Also bear in mind how biased the withholding services situation is towards teams. Riders can be threatened with the ban even when doing so for not paid being for weeks/months

Am I the only one who thinks Celina looks like she could be Jason Bunyans lovechild? -
It is totally relevant He was looking to return to the sport, putting out PR that he had learnt his lesson and deserved a second chance Whether he is at liberty to take up a team spot is a key factor in the story

Oxford v Witches 13th June
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv replied to Badge's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
An absolute disgrace (Speedways policy not specifically Oxford) Firstly only refunding to 10 heats is abysmally bad Secondly the £1 per heat refund formula was introduced when the cost breached the £15 barrier but hasn't been revised despite the standard cost rising by 50% Will only encourage more and more to keep their money in their pocket on a Speedway night.... -

At 8:15 the weather radar was showing it clearing by 8:30 and not returning until after 9:15 If that didn't happen then it was the right call - if it did there was time to sort it it and get it done
