Oh dear, I have heard it all now and I thought better of you Skidder. An international speedway rider takes out travel insurance each time he flies! Poole used to be sponsored by an insurance company - I am sure they could have sorted him out!!!
Totally agree Starry. What has happened to Darcy is terrible but life goes on and I am sure that Darcy would want speedway to continue as normal anyway as he loves the sport. Someone suggesting the rest of the season should be cancelled is just ridiculous.
Can't dispute that logic however, to defend the promotion, MJJ was signed last year and it all went horribly wrong so I can understand why there may be some reticence to bring in a new rider.
Pretty expensive too - what with all the Piriton tablets required!! (other hay-fever tablets are also available)
I thought Milik rode well at Coventry a couple of weeks ago.
