SCB Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 Even the pathetic response from the BSPA Spokesman leaves a lot to be desired!<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Mark Lorams attitude to his contract that he made the choice NOt to sign leaves a lot to be desired.

SuzieQ Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 (edited) Mark Lorams attitude to his contract that he made the choice NOt to sign leaves a lot to be desired. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> FINE! So why was he named in the ELRC, the Test Match against Sweden, in the EL Pairs? These are all meetings governed by this form too! And you can bet that they will expect him to ride for Team GB in the SWC regardless of signed form or not! I'm sorry but if they have a computer system with a database, they should be able to see straight away who has signed and returned forms etc, contact those that have not sent them back with a reminder! And no doubt the Team GB Manager was aware of this also but said nothing! Edited May 18, 2006 by Tabby3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 A verbal contract, someone asked him to ride, he agreed. Nothing has been signed or verbally agreed for the British Final so he does not ride. Why do you need a computer system to see who has signed the contract? someone has found it, just what would this magical computer system add? Or maybe, they do have a computer system and thats whats found out he has not signed the contract. Why should someone phone Mark and tell him he has not signed the contract? He has for 3 years now not signed it!!! Not a mistake, Mark does NOT want to sign it, he has to decide what he wants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shazzybird Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 Don't wind her up SCB Why can't they get the riders to sign a contract that allows them to compete in all Championships at the beginning of their careers that runs until they retire, if they make a comeback then they have to re-sign would save a lot of paperwork and hardwork .............. that's it I now want a job at the BSPA they obviously need organising Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newbieoldboy Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 Hold your breath. Here are the current top 10 English riders in average order from league and cup matches ridden in this season.1= Mark Loram & Simon Stead 3 Scott Nicholls 4 Joe Screen 5 Leigh Lanham 6 Paul Hurry7 Dean Barker 8 David Norris 9 Lee Richardson 10 Chris Harris <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Problem is its at Reading not Arena. Dave Norris and Bomber both ride Reading well. I know I'm biased but I would seriously take a look at how Danny Bird is doing before naming the squad, he rides the Smallmead track better than half those in the top 5.

Subedei Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 I do believe that young Middleditch can't afford any mistakes with his team selection or Team GB might not even make the final. Realistically, Poland and Sweden are going to go straight through to the final, leaving Team GB, Australia, Denmark and possibly either the Czech Republic, Russia or America in the race-off. It's going to be very tough for Team GB to get into the final from there. Australia have Crump (awesome this season), Adams and a coming into form Sullivan, while Denmark have the Pedersens, Andersen, Iversen and Jensen.
