  1. we also need to ban him from travelling in a car, have you the way some people drive, crossing a road, drivers again, walking, the pavements are a mess in some places or any activity except laying in bed all day, watch for pressure sores though, until the season starts then we can let him ride a speedway bike for a living PS my eighteen month old grand daughter went sledging for the first time and didn't get hurt, just thought I'd mention it
  2. It was meant to be a joke, not a good one obviously
  3. You do realise its the BSPA that has awarded it to Redcar don't you, Thought?
  4. Couldn't agree more with this, but opening the doors last season has led to this situation. Re Bellego, I am sure if he took legal action the rule would be dropped, seems the BSPA don't learn, but no surprise there
  5. That only involves direct discrimination Indirect discrimination can be for any other reason
  6. But again that would be discriminating against them the rule was wrong, (blame the BSPA for that) so had to be corrected immediately
  7. Its not the Kennett / Nichols ruling that make people not take the sport seriously, its the fact that riders can ride for two different teams in the same country at the same time that people cant understand
  8. It didn't apply to all riders, riders with a higher average were allowed to ride in the CL it discriminated against riders that didn't ride in the CL last season. the old rule was applied to all riders in what is now the PL with an average over 6, so didn't discriminate against anyone
  9. It just fails on all three 1,.Make sense. 2. Fair. 3. Be applied equitably (same for everyone). the points limit doesn't fail on any
  10. Points limit is the same for all teams, all teams agreed to the points limit Nichols and Kennett were not treated the same as other eiders of equal or even better ability I don't see what there is to misunderstand about this
  11. or is that extra meetings that have no importance at all, in other words just put on to make the numbers up not having a dig at Sheffield its just the way speedway is at the moment
  12. Looking at the fixtures, because of holidays and free Thursdays I will not see any speedway in June, but if we do well again I will be able go in freezing October
  13. Graversen won us the league last year, if he is at reserve he would do OK
  14. i get BT sports for free on my broadband contract
  15. Surely they don't get beaten every time at such a neutral track?
  16. So if you have a team with Aussies in it you will have an advantage, so does that make it a neutral track?
  17. Have Redcar ever had a team capable of winning the league? Sheffield always seem to have home track advantage when they have a good team, it disappears when we don't I really don't understand this fact
  18. No such thing as a neutral track, unless there is a track where non the riders have ridden before. If Redcar was a neutral track then the opposition would have as much chance of winning as the home team How many times have Redcar lost 50% of their home meetings in a season, that is assuming that the teams are evenly matches of course
  19. And how many didn't go anywhere, or how many of the ones who went every week to Coventry went every week to another track? Far more fans will have been lost forever or hopefully only lost until Coventry return home, soon hopefully
  20. Don't agree, usually when a track closes the majority of its fans are lost, when Sheffield closed I stopped going altogether as did most of the Sheffield fans I knew at the time All less tracks with less meetings will mean is less fans
  21. Three good heat leaders who will at least maintain their averages all the other four can up their averages, quite a lot in the case of Shanes. Can see him and Kurtz swapping in the reserve base quite a lot Here's to another good season. and to retaining the league title
  22. think we are playing a waiting game, if Workington don't use him there is no need to buy him if they come back and say they will use him if we don't buy him then we will see what happens
  23. Think that signing means that Kyle will be the next signing If it goes to plan then should have a very competetive team once again.. Todd could even find himself at reserve at some stage if James Shanes performes as expected
