Triple.H. Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 So what else has Barker done this week? I saw an incident recently which started on track after the race had finished and carried on as they rode into the pits passing the no bikes to be ridden in the pits sign one rider punched the other on the back of the head from behind followed by a bit if a melee. Not being at Ipswicb tonight i can't comment on what happened but surely referees should sbow some consistency. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Star Lady Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 I wasn't there and this is no verdict on what happened but am I right in saying that Cook having been fined can now have no further action taken against him whereas others involved who were not disciplined can be. Seem to recall something like this in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msc1874 Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 Dunno what's happened. But joke non contest throwing top rider out of the meeting. I don't know if it was merited or if barker deserved to go too, but it made the meeting a farce 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very public spirited of him.i have bumped into him a few times and he has always been polite and amenable unlike one of his fellow Ipswich riders who thought after the Cardiff GP that it would be fun to stand at the bar in the walkabout and have Wee against it.

Futile argument to say the least.... Jog on. I don't agree with your argument but I agree with your point about averages. Not the issue here. It will all come out in the wash. The referee has made a massive call here. Match changing. I would suggest in due course if it is found barker is equally culpable, then his points could be expunged from the meeting. I know nothing, but the referee needs to stand by the call he made, otherwise he has ruined a great cup tie. I do recall Ben barker wanting to go fighting with Thomas h jonasson at stoke after losing a race to him. Just saying... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
