That comment coming from you made me laugh. Whether it be speedway or politics, one can always rely on you wading in insulting folks left right and centre. Been commented on by many posters who are not in '"my entourage", as you put it. Do you always go around looking down at your shoes. The world is an exciting place and interesting, not the depressing and grey area you seem to live in.

Thanks for that Chris. To put this to bed. I never said, or implied, that the club did not help Matej through this period. It was some fans that did not support him and as has been said, Havvy thought it better to find another club in order to get things sorted out. He lived with Havvy I believe, and he would have been in a perfect position to know Matej and help him. I was delighted he has, both for him and Berwick, who gave him the chance with excellent returns. Remember also, despite Wilko being a well liked rider at Newport, Worky, Berwick and Newcastle, some Redcar fans still found regular faults with him, so maybe they are the same fans. I wish Matej all the best for his return to Redcar in 2015. He's a nice personable lad who deserves to succeed and be appreciated. I look forward to a good reception to Redcar next time I go. Contractually they can't force the player to return. Newcastle own a goalie and a centre back at Notts Forest, from buying them in September and loaning them back for this season. Despite our recent problems at centre back, we still couldn't force the centreback to join us. Unless it is agree "in the interests of Newcastle and Notts Forest".

It would seem some fans forget the division that Kus's scoring used to cause between Redcar fans. He got a lot of stick from many, despite he was a favourite with others. I was there for his last meeting and after the meeting he kept away from everyone and looked lonely, and quietly gave away his gloves, goggles and his racing bib to youngsters and I said at the time, "he's out of here". I have always liked Kus and defended him, and praised him when he went to Berwick, so I do have a soft spot for him. Incidently , there is nothing low about stating the truth even though some don't want to remember. Fans were frustrated at him and at times wrote about it. It was time for Matej to get away to another track. I wrote on the Berwick thread at the beginning of last season, that he would do well and I was pleased to see his scores so high, and how happy he seemed to be there. Being near him at Redcars training schools, I could see that he could crack riding at STMP, as he was a different rider practicing on a Saturday, just the same as he was at our practice and repeated second half rides, as he was determined to return to his true form. More rubbish about me from you Martin. Redcar is my next local track, so I tend to know more about them than say Plymouth. I also have a lot of friends at Redcar, and usually know what the crack is. Why would I not have an opinion about Redcar and their riders, who Newcastle fans see more than other teams. Incidently, I have never said that his depression at that time was anything to do with Redcar, so don't try to pin that one on me. Most fans know the real reason and you also know that reason.

But it's true what Wendy says. Had Enough is a name that suits him. He is cynical and sarcastic on just about everything that is done in speedway. He's just a troll having a laugh at the sport of speedway. Very sad.

There is Colin.
-
It's nearly there.
-
But a lot of better riders would and do Colin.

Can't believe that Kus would really prefer riding for Redcar over Berwick. He was a depressed young man at Redcar, with very little support, but made himself a fans favourite and a match winner on a track much more suited to his style. Took him a little while to get started, but when he did, he scored big and big points means bigger wages. Perhaps Kus feared he would not get a ride and bowed to the pressure and the alternative.

Only if the contract is not binding, or it is OK'd between the parties. In football loan deals ARE enforceable.
-
It was previously announced as a 2 year loan deal. Both promotions spoke to each other at the AGM and agreed a loan, and it has been reported in the interview that is quoted, that Havvy changed his mind and demanded £21k for Kus. You are right, "there's more to this than a press release", but fortunately it doesn't point to much wrong on the Berwick side.

Due to the worsening weather forecast for tomorrow, there will be no track work at Brough on Sunday. Depending on the weather, we will restart the work after the New Year. More details to follow nearer the time. May I take this opportunity to thank everyone who have given their time and efforts so far, and wish you all a very Merry Xmas and an even happier New Year.
-
So reneging on a loan deal is OK then.
-
But what happens if Kus did sign a 2 year real last year.
-
The rule book for 2015 will not even at the printers yet. It needs decisions made at the AGM to be ratified, and printing of the rule book can commence. The rules being quoted are from the 2014 rule book. As 'dontforgetthefueltsbrov' has said, the draft minutes will be circulated and then published as "a true record". What I am told is Gary knew at the AGM. But riding at number 1 at Worky with harder rides. Also ignoring his form at Poole of course.
-
Well, it's the same guy making the same 'mistakes' apparently.
-
Down to negotiation or by edict of the BSPA if no agreement.
-
So if nothing was said, why have other promotions condemned the signing on a 7. Do you really think the Rob G would say what he has said unless it was valid.
-
Bollocks. The decision was made to the people who hire riders.
-
No, I do't think they do want him, but are making it impossible for him to get a ride in this country, unless they can can fiddle £21k out of Berwick, which is never going to happen.
-
How, when it was announced at the AGM that all new Aussies come in on a 7. At least 3 promotions are quoting that fact, so I don't think that Somerset will get away with another con.
-
Don't worry, Berwick will track Kus on a loan deal, regardless of what someone wants for him. Slavery was abolished years ago.
-
No he will probably come back with "Explain".
-
Never said or implied he was as good as Doyle. Very selective argument, but not even 'doubting' you can disagree that Josh is a better rider now.
-
I'll bet he is the only one doing that to his legs.
-
Let's hope they are not.
