If he is medically fit to race then he is medically fit to race anywher. (He would not be insured if he continued to race against medical advice) Should be given 7 days to race again in the UK for his contracted side. If he fails to do so , banned for the rest of the season in UK. This will prevent any other club signing him ( e.g. for the p.offs.) KL should be given a facility fo the rest of the season. If we have professional speedway in he UK they ought to start behaving like a professional governing body. Agree 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UK Speedway has put themselves into such a position that they need these riders more than the riders need UK Speedway... There is simply no deterrent as UK Speedway cannot afford to have one... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Triple.H. Posted July 15 Report Share Posted July 15 Does he live in the UK ? What if his visa says to live here, he has to work here ? Being ill or injured are valid reasons for not working here, but you're either fit enough to race or unfit to race. Maybe whoever sponsors his visa should be notifying the relevant authorities he's in breach of his visa. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently if you have a a Sports Visa and refuse to compete, but compete elsewhere, you are not violating the conditions of the visa - however, the sponsor can withdraw their support, which then jeopardises the status of the visa. So, if the Visa Sponsor is happy with the situation, the competitor is OK. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’d be fantastic if we went through, but I just can’t see how we can get to the magic 43 points barring some absolute miracle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think, between us, we could make a very long list of tracks where we have seen Lynn lose. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawk127 Posted July 17 Report Share Posted July 17 Watching Ben Cook tonight in Poland he does not seem to be having too much trouble riding his bike. Lynn fans are being shafted and that extends to this chap sticking two fingers up at UK speedway. He needs to made an example of and not allowed to ride in the UK for the rest of the season. Most supporters are fed up with people like Ben who treat supporters over here with such disrespect. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
