szkocjasid Posted September 26 Report Share Posted September 26 If Bowes has indeed "spat his dummy out" & refusing to ride for Workington, then should get a 28 day ban. Of course that's pointless at this stage of the season, so what's to stop any rider disappearing before the end of the season? Maybe ban could carry over to next season? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2ndbend123 Posted September 26 Report Share Posted September 26 Bowes expected his bikes to be at Poole as they are stored at Workington. He got told this was not possible and threw his toys and confirmed his season is over. For me I want riders who want to ride for Workington regardless. Nobody is bigger than the club. He has been missing more than present this season. Go and chase your dream in Poland and Sweden son. Bye for now 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marek Cieslak, used to be the Poland “coach” he’s working on CanalSports coverage of meetings in Poland now. Found this from an article on the polish site. “I'd like to know who recommended this rider to them. I see he's a guy who can't really ride speedway. But what can you do, but that's exactly what Unia's squad looks like – full of holes," said Marek Cieślak on Canal+ Sport. The Australian left the Jaskółki team without scoring a single point. In Łódź, he had only zeros against his name in four starts. "I don't know why he got the first number. Maybe Stasiu (Burza - editor's note) was hoping for some kind of awakening," added the experienced coach.” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTD26 Posted September 27 Report Share Posted September 27 (edited) The whole situation stinks, I liked Fraser, I thought he was one of the most improved riders over the course of the season but this has left a sour taste in the mouth. He’s a young lad who’s finding his way in Europe and I get his Facebook post, but to spit the dummy out over a “lift” that then leads to essentially withholding his services, is just out of order. His behaviour is that of a petulant child throwing his toys out of the pram, just adds fuel to the rumours he’s signed for Poole. Good riddance.

Should get a 28 day ban for next season though if a British club is naive enough to sign a rider who thinks it is okay to treat the club who quite frankly have pandered after him all season with no reciprocal loyalty with such disdain. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE DEAN MACHINE Posted September 27 Report Share Posted September 27 If this is true, right there we have one of the problems with British speedway, riders these days expect, well those days are long gone, the sport isn’t in the position to pander to these demands,some of the things riders expect these days is unattainable and it’s not just top riders, I got told a few weeks back about a current championship rider who wanted a large guarantee to ride in a amatuer meeting, riders deserve the world but unfortunately the cake just isn’t big enough to feed everyone the slice they want 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
