@LeeSmarty04: Unavailable my ass been sacked over 2 weeks ago #pullingafastone

I presume then that Poole will receive some kind of sanction as it would appear he was 'available' after all??

 

Or are you entitled to use guests when none of your riders are 'unavailable'??? ...

 

If so, I bet Charlie Wright is going to be a busy boy this season... :D

 

Maybe that's another new rule this year we were not made aware of .... :o;)

Read on another thread that Smart notriding for the Devils either? Poole don't own them as well, why is he not riding for the Devils? Makes his Twitter statement look iffy?

 

Why does it make it look `iffy`? He is clearly saying he was sacked. Nothing `iffy` about that.

Thought it's a maximum of 5 guest appearances for any one team was in place?

I meant that he's not just not appearing for Poole, he's also not appearing for the Devils in the same timeframe.. The Devils haven't sacked him as well have they?

oh I am sure that if it's 'in the interests of speedway' then that will be 'subject to change'..... :D

Is he injured for Devils, sacked by Poole? That's all, looking for clarification.... (I Need a quick charge, back soon) Edited by Shale Searcher

Why does that matter what he is doing for the Devils?? If he is unable to ride his commitments on the same day what does that change exactly?

He was just clarifying a situation that is being given the wrong spin by MF.

We dont know what the situation is with the Devils. We DO know he was sacked by Poole.

Wouldnt be the first time. Coventry once sacked Rory Schlein and replaced him with Hans. Rick Frost/Colin Horton had a bitch fit and Rory had to ride for Coventry despite having been sacked. Clearly some riders have some self respect and integrity and will ride even after being sacked.

He has nothing to do with the Devils!!

 

He has so far ridden one meeting for the Devon Demons, and has since claimed he has quit the sport.

 

R/R for the Demons at Scunny today.

If you were in Lee Smarts position, being treated how Poole have treated him, and bearing in mind he is struggling to find his old form, would you consider quitting the sport ?. I would not be at all surprised if he has quit.

One team changes one of their draft riders, tells the rider concerned, signs another and everyone is on the same page.

Another team changes one of their draft riders and just makes up a load of bollox.

Hmm?

Difficult to argue with that. 🙈😁 Edited by Aces51

See, this is why people should use punctuation.

 

He could be saying "unavailable my ass, been sacked over 2 weeks ago"

 

Or, he could be saying "unavailable, my ass been sacked over 2 weeks ago"

 

I think he means the first interpretation, but I prefer the second one.
