Don't you just love happy endings.. :party::drink:

I for one am relieved Nick appears to be with us still. Have always said he has something about him. Future number one for sure and will add those vital extra supporters to the attendance.

According to a very respected Speedway blogger Steve Worrall will miss 10 matches for the Robins when he is riding for Edinburgh on the same day. 5 at home and 5 away.

 

8/04 vs Poole (H&A): Steve Worrall (Edinburgh)

25/04 vs Lakeside (A): Steve Worrall (Edinburgh)

01/05 vs Birmingham (H):Steve Worrall (Edinburgh) - Birmingham are missing Paul Starke

30/05 vs Lakeside (A): Steve Worrall (Edinburgh)

03/07 vs King's Lynn (H): Steve Worrall (Edinburgh)

04/07 vs Coventry (A): Steve Worrall (Edinburgh) - Coventry are missing Kyle Howarth

07/08 vs Lakeside (H): Steve Worrall (Edinburgh)

14/08 vs Eastbourne (H): Steve Worrall (Edinburgh)

06/09 vs Leicester (A): Steve Worrall (Edinburgh)

 

With grateful thanks to Alan Boon from the Speeding Motorcycles Blog-a very good and well-informed, if opinionated, read!

 

So I guess we will have to be diligent watchers of his progress when he is available!

Indeed Chalkie, looks like a few EL Clubs will be in the same boat on that one

Yes, if you look at the Speeding Motorcycles Blog http://speeding-motorcycles.blogspot.co.uk/2014/01/extra-elite-league-fixture-clashes.html he lists 'em all-top bloke who is no longer allowed on this Forum for some strange reason.

Some strange reason? The guy caused mayhem on here and fully deserved the ban. Who can forget the Marquis of Sherbourne episode?

 

Was also Trumps mouthpiece and stirred up very ill feeling.

 

The blog is also inaccurate as Josh Grajczonek is a Poole asset and Poole meetings take preference over PL meetings. Poole do not have any fixture clashes.

Alan Boons Poole and Matt Ford hatred quite frankly ruin any parts of a blog which could be viewed as a decent viewpoint.

 

If his blog can't be objective it is worthless. He even ranted that Matt Ford should have saved IOW rather than bring the Scunthorpe NL team back! No mention of any other promoter coming in to save IOW! Just shows his bias.

You obviously have , as it was "duchess of sherborne" episode. :D

 

And for someone who once lived in Sherborne i would have expected you to get the spelling a little more accurate. :wink:

The sport is wracked with self-interest. The clubs have done what they thought was best for themselves as, no doubt, Morris was doing for himself.

 

He was dropped by a club with whom he had a signed contract. He then sought to move away from a club with whom he had no signed contract. When the rider can't rely on a contract he had in place I fail to see how he can be faulted for looking out for himself.

 

I'm a realist. If you can't see what's staring everyone in the face that's hardly my fault.

Shame you are posting such drivel; the Morris saga has nothing to do with Sheffield from what I can see. The interesting post is the one that assumed that Morris was riding for Leicester as if he was riding for them he wouldn't be riding for Swindon would he?

Don't let the truth get in the way of a good rant then!

 

How can it have nothing to do with Sheffield? Nick said he wanted to go there. Swindon accused them of an illegal approach, subsequently denied. Sheffield did make an enquiry as to his availability.

 

If Nick had gone to Sheffield then Leicester were the obvious EL alternative. They still have a gap that fits so were they waiting to see what transpired? There is much more to this issue than just Morris and Sheffield and you don't have to look too far to see what it is. Some speculation maybe but plenty of fact and way too many coincidences to not have some relevance.

I got the spelling of "Sherbourne" correct as that is how it was spelt in the original "Dutchess of Sherbourne" document. (Sherbourne near Coventry)

 

Boons postings got what they deserved, a lifetime ban.
