Again incorrectly read Steve, it doesn't say BK can't ride for 28 days it's says the Aces have a facility for 28 days. Brady is aiming to be back next week v Ipswich (As per Mark Lemon). Also if he's not fit to ride in 28 days then the facility can be extended as long as he doesn't ride abroad, which isn't the same as TM.
He's not really has he. If hes fit to ride he comes back if not then the facility continues, it's a total non story. I suspect we will replace him if he's not fit within a month.
Either way he pulled out of his last ride and didn't ride in Sweden this week. Let's see if he gets a ban, but it's still different from TM.
Opinion wise I don't blame any rider for putting Poland first, they simply have no choice.
Does he deserve a ban?
As things stand both are different aren't they.
TM: has confirmed he will continue to ride in Poland but not UK until he feels he's ready?
BK: Rode in Poland at Weekend withdrew from meeting after 4 rides due to the pain, and has decided he needs more time to rest and won't be racing anywhere for the rest of the month. To add he didn't ride in Sweden this week.
Your not that nieve to expect him to say that, he doesn't want Kurtz to get a ban so he's hardly going to state that he expects one is he. He'd certainly be stupid to mentioned any possibility of a ban.
I do agree on the explanation bit, but the rules should be flexible and a ban should be down to the decision of the SCB based on the reasoning for missing a meeting. A don't believe there was any punishment needed for Doyle, he'd already lost a meetings pay.
He's refusing to ride over here though, while Kurtz is out full stop. Also Covatti has already had 28 day cover and came back didn't complete a race then is out again but rides in a meaningless open meeting. The SCB clearly feels he's playing a game. Kurtz is obviously injured that's clear. They have got this right.
Crashed in Sweden on the Tuesday, told to rest so missed Thursday, raced Saturday but couldn't walk after meeting, went to have it checked Sunday was told major ligament damage, so as I say nothing like Covatti. Kurtz could be out for months.
