Weeyin Posted July 3 Report Share Posted July 3 7 minutes ago, szkocjasid said: I see Fredriksen is guesting for Oxford at Glasgow. If Plymouth are serious about a play-offs push then Oxford are their direct rivals for a play-off spot (Glasgow are secure imo). While I don't expect Oxford to pick up points at Glasgow, if they do then Lasse's hurting Plymouth's chances I'd say. Weather forecast is horrendous, Glasgow v Oxford off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example if Trigger wanted to leave Plymouth he'd get a 28 day ban, so if Plymouth drop Trigger pay him (his average) for any Plymouth matches in the next 28 days (unless he gets signed elsewhere)? Sorry but I can't agree with this, so a rider comes in, rides poorly, nowhere near their average or even worse rides with a complete lack of effort (I've seen plenty of those over the years) and a team then has to either stick with them or pay a fee to get rid. Nah I'm not having that, if you're poor at your job, you get sacked, a big difference from being made redundant.Ā 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ā IF Ā IF Scott Nicholls decides he is fit and wants to race he would just fit in to replace Barker. Would transform Plymouth Team in that eventuality. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah I'm not having that, if you're poor at your job, you get sacked, a big difference from being made redundant.Ā But what about riders who have upped their average & get dropped (like Trigger) or get dropped because someone else got injured (like Hume), what about riders who only get a handful of matches before being dropped (like Spencer)? You say it's different to being made redundant, but what about the other way round, if I want to leave my job I'm not banned from working elsewhere for 28 days. That's my issue, if clubs can drop riders at the drop of the hat, then riders should be able to leave clubs without a ban. If riders get banned for 28 days, then clubs should pay them for 28 days!

However I donāt see you raising an issue with the likes of the Knudsen one so maybe itās just you having an inevitable dig at Plymouth.

Having a go at all of them really, taken the piss out of British speedway, perhaps if it does go to one league next season, we can do away with the ones not committed to speedway over hereĀ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
