westhamboy66 Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 The PL is suffering from this fast track rubbish. Re arranged fixture or not its ridiculous that Garrity will miss this one to ride for Coventry. He is owned by Rye House and loaned to Coventry and as such should ride whatever the circumstances for his parent club end of. All this does is make the PL look like circus in a similar way to how we have viewed the EL for many years. Just cancelled our hotel as it ain't worth the trip 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fast track has been great this year but bees have missed Garrity alot at home due to him riding him the PL and so have had to use riders much lower in the draft. Rye House arranged this meeting knowing Coventry were already riding so why should coventry be punished? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Speaking to Garrity at Cardiff he will paint you a different picture.... Don't be so blinkered. Â In essence these young lads are pivotal in winning EL matches, Garrity scored something like 17 points in one match.... Ask him what he got paid for it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are not blinkered, no they don't get paid much at all but then why does Garrity want to ride for Coventry so much. He makes no secret of it when interviewed. Day before u21 GB team event which meant he couldn't ride in PL, he was at Brandon in pits supporting the bees & also comes to work for free with the Coventry storm helping them in the pits. Â He was in agony on Monday night after his crash and was unable to ride back to pits or get off bike without help. Yet even though he was hardly being paid much and could have withdrawn, he came out for every race and gave 100%. Â Next year he won't be in the draft Edited August 20, 2014 by mdmc82 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Day before u21 GB team event which meant he couldn't ride in PL, he was at Brandon in pits supporting the bees & also comes to work for free with the Coventry storm helping them in the pits.  He was in agony on Monday night after his crash and was unable to ride back to pits or get off bike without help.

Of the riders you named previously, not one of them was a raw novice, they've been around PL or NL speedway for a good few years mostly?? If speedway looked after these lads there development would be secure, not binned off because or if they weren't scoring, which I'm sure would happen to them like it has others. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Skid Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 Kerr, Garrity, Newman, Worrall, blackbird, rose, Sarj, lambert to name a few And how much were the fans expected to pay for the privilege of watching these riders, looks like they voted with their feet at most tracks, the Cookie master plan for speedway domination forgot to take into account that speedway fans are very loyal, but not stupid. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can be miles apart. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next year he won't be in the draft I think the question that needs to be answered is WHERE will these riders be riding next year,EL or back in PL,if they are not in the draft. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan_Jones Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 Meanwhile, back at the match, Mason Campton is the guest for Garrity. Still waiting for the swelling on Boxall's ankle to go down to allow an x-ray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben91 Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 Kerr, Garrity, Newman, Worrall, blackbird, rose, Sarj, lambert to name a few Because half their rides are against NL standard riders who they should be beating easily anyway. Â Garrity riding for Coventry has had a negative impact on his scores for his parent club. If he hadn't been handed to Coventry due to his high grade in the flawed fast track reserve system and their rubbish season last year I doubt he would have even been on any EL clubs radar for a reserve berth. Â He should be riding for Rye House on Saturday night regardless of what the rules may say. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadders Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 Spot on Ben. Garrity has been a huge disappointment for Rye House this year. He may be doing the business for Coventy, but he's been very inconsistent for his parent team. Should've been knocking on an 8 point average by now. He would've progressed further if he'd put in 100% effort for the Rockets this year. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rye House arranged this meeting knowing Coventry were already riding so why should coventry be punished? Untrue Rye House didn't arrange this meeting this would have been the only available date for BERWICK ( Both Saturday tracks) to offer as they have to meet the cut off dates for the playoffs. A nothing meeting for Rye as we are bottom but i feel for the Berwick public who will have endure an ever weaker Rye team. Only in Speedway would this farce happen. what incentive is there for a PL team to invest time and money in a rider and his development only to be denied his services. Fast track ...a cheap option to fill a team with lower quality riders while still charging Elite prices. Can see by the size of the crowd at Coventry that the fans are voting with their feet, looked about to be on par with Kent which says it all really except that they are only paying twelve quid to watch it 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmc82 Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 Monday on TV was the smallest crowd we have had but have got 3 home meetings in 8 days so understandable. Â Been having some very strong crowds. But was the same last year when we were bottom of league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still waiting for the swelling on Boxall's ankle to go down to allow an x-ray. Â I take it Mr Silver doesn't do a lot of research when looking for a guest, Campton guested a week or two ago for Sheffield, his score wasn't exactly great. Â 4. Mason Campton (guest) 0,0,R,2,N = 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
