I'd have thought the big problem for him getting back into Speedway would be finding the money to kit himself out.

It's not cheap needing a couple of bikes and a van plus plenty of spares even if his old riding kit is still OK. Sponsors aren't going to be queuing up for him and even with some help it's a big ask for somebody who has had no income for years. It's not exactly a steady income at the best of times.

Personally I would think his rehabilitation would be better served by finding employment with a steady monthly income to get his personal life on track. If in 3 years or so he has saved enough to fund a return to racing that would be the time to take the risk.

I did mention this earlier in the topic, as you say it is not cheap to set oneself up in Speedway, and bearing in mind he allegedly tried to rob someone then i doubt he is exactly flush for funds, personally without backing I cannot see how he will fund any comeback.

He said he has everything ready bikes and a van so must have people backing him

He wants a ‘ JOB ‘……that pays !

Well, the best of luck with that ... as I said, he would be best advised to start with amateur racing, and use that to convince promoters that he still has his talent, and is willing to buckle down and be honest.

Can't see any reason why he wouldn't.

Speedway is dangerous as we all know. The ageing spectator demograph however might feel even more vulnerable knowing that only a mesh fence a few feet high separates them from Garrity. So long as they do not have anything valuable in their possession though, things should be fine. In defence of Garrity, he’s probably looking at Craig Cook and thinking he’s repeatedly let so many people down and continues to get offers to ride.
