Would agree with that.

You have too question why he didn’t take 2nd sample.

Both Barker and Kyle Hogarth took their 2nd test so they could argue their case Nick refused so that’s his downfall big ban coming

It could be a Stuart Dickson masterplan!.Keep him suspended and get better riders to guest for Brummies to help get Top 6 place.!!

Could be?

Keep calling off the hearing till the end of the season and, it all blows away in a wintery wind.

The only thing that comes to mind is that Nick and his team are conducting their own blood/laboratory tests. If these show him to be innocent of drug taking and the SCB accept the evidence as admissible, that might help his case. He may, however, still be punished for non compliance with the testing procedure.

If that’s the case are they saying that methods being used in speedway are not right, don’t think that will help his case.

The thing there is tho, surely any samples will have had to be taken at the same time of the event?

I didn't say it was valid or might work in Nick's favour. I'm just guessing in the absence of any public facts. Like everyone else.

It's seems the only public facts are that, he refused a 2nd test and is asking to delay the hearing.

Clutching at straws?

Anyone refusing to take a drugs test should be treated like a drink driving refusal to take provide a breath sample at the road

side or taking a test at the police station and are therefore banned for the maximum time allowed when taking to court.

Ok, when did he take a test, was it on the evening in question?

So, the Brummies have a "facility" until the hearing date of 16th August. What happens after that? Assuming that his defence is no better than anyone else's defence for not complying with testing procedure, and he gets a ban off the SCB, then what?  More facilities until the end of the year?  Is there a record for the fewest number of meetings a team has ever appeared with a full complement of 7 "own" riders, in a 2-season period? Ironically one of the few wins this year was when they actually did field their own 7-man team.
