  1. That's alright then, rumour had it that they had to take a pay cut and were only getting basic BSPA pay rates, and had to go swing for the rest that was in their contract, but we're all glad that's not true then.
  2. He really is the Arthur Daley of speedway, got away with conning two riders last year out of a decent amount of money, looks like he's found a new box of tricks this year.
  3. Ok, tell us what facts the Birmingham fans know.
  4. Ha, if you had a Club statement for every rider changing his mind or not keeping his word, you'd never have time to read them all, just enjoy your speedway, at least you've got it to watch, plenty of folks would like that, or would you rather have a Club statement saying it's finished. There's an old saying " A little knowledge is a dangerous thing"
  5. Don't think it was ever going to happen mate, isn't he working in a mine earning decent money, don't think it's got anything to do with the Club.

  7. Heard he's also signed Jason Bunyan from Poole as well!

  10. Riders have been warned officially about what they say on social networking sites, so you won't hear the truth now, but it doesn't take much working out, with dodgy Mike involved.
  11. Plymouth chairman and promoter Mike Bowden said Ashworth's decision had thrown the club's pre-season preparations into some disarray. Bowden said: "We're a bit disappointed because there are six weeks to go until the end of the season and now we're told Ricky won't be joining us. Someone tell him the season hasn't started yet
  12. FIM rules state that a Wild Card entry has to ride on a Licence issued by the Country staging the GP.
  13. According to the local Press he's sending two bikes, and his engine tuner to NZ from the UK, can't see that being cheap.
  14. Cos the Kiwi's hate the Ozzies more than the Scots hate the English.
  15. Probably looking to score no more than 6, then you can count them on one hand. Must stop this, as they say, sarcasm is the lowest form of wit. Let's think of the options, a day in sunny Ipswich with the sackers Witches earning a couple of quid or a week in NZ racing with the best riders in the World, Bye the way NZ is down the A14 and turn left at the A!.
  16. Seems strange that they don't have their own GP, oh i forgot, they did all their cash running one a few years back, run another one and you can have whoever you want to ride in it.
  17. Kiwi's support two Teams, NZ and anyone who beats Australia, enough said.
  18. Big difference in being a wild card and a meeting reserve though.
  19. http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/motorsport/6295065/Dream-ride-for-his-adopted-homeland How did Len get a GP rider at reserve, life in the old dog yet.
  20. The international riders are running a training day at Waikaraka Park Speedway on Saturday 28th January ... 1pm til 6pm... with technical help and training offered, from bike preparation, engine and clutch management to getting out of the gate.... price is $20 please call 0212661825 if you are keen to attend... Now, that's value for money. £10!!!
  21. Didn't take long for the PL boys to get wise to Bowden, news travels fast.
  22. Makes Del Boy and Rodney, look like Alan Sugar and Peter Jones.
  23. Trouble in store with the transfer system, don't think the big teams will be buying many riders, as they are being forced to give away a big chunk off their assett base, the rich clubs are having to give to the poor, bit like robin hood
