SteveLyric2 Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) What is it with World Governing bodies, that they can't organise a 'Party in a Pub'. Last week, we hear FIFA want to disrupt world football so justifying the handouts to their delegates and playing the World-Cup at Christmas, and now FIM make an announcement that makes our league last year null-in -void. The FIM have come out of all this with as much credit as Darcy Ward. What a fiasco. What has been gained by deeming those matches played before any suspension, as void. Surely they know you cant change the past, and all decisions should be for the future of the sport. Everyone expected Ward to be banned for a year. Shortening that to 10 months, some, might see as a victory, but in doing so, have taken away the integrity of the whole league season..... Well done FIM....... You really have played a blinder........ You are reading too much into the FIM statement. The statement is about Darcy Ward's offence at the SGP. Its rider points and what he has been paid for them that is referred to - nothing to do with any of his clubs!! IMO its a bit of a silly paragraph about the 17/8 til 27/8 as it was the FIM's fault he wasn't suspended straight away anyway. If he had been then he wouldn't have ridden - nothing to do with any of his league clubs! In any case how are the FIM going to monitor Ward's points payment deduction?!

foreverblue Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 Lewis Bridger is now available, if Poole or a Poole rider has some spare bikes ! Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo F I M ? Ward failed test 17/8 banned from racing 28/8 6 months on decision reached 10 month ban can start racing 28/6 agreed.Now the good bit any racing between 17/8 and 28/8 was wrong. But the ban starts from 28/8 surely the ban should start from 17/8 or maybe its me Having tested positive he should not have been allowed to race.

John Leslie Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 Lewis Bridger is now available, if Poole or a Poole rider has some spare bikes ! He could borrow Darcy's. He won't be needing them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agrotron Posted February 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) So its afternoon now where is the completed team ? Edited February 27, 2015 by Pirate Oliver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavan Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 So its afternoon now where is the completed team ? My point is that we have listened to people the last few weeks saying Ford has his options in place for all circumstances. If thats the case then the team can be announced immediatly unless its not as clear cut as people believe. I dont understand the wait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont understand the wait I dunno I am beginning to lose patience with Ford now and if he re jiggles things to fit Ward in after his ban and we lose a rider it could well be the final straw for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BANANAMAN Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 The current Poole riders must love the fact all the Poole fans can't wait for at least 1 of them to be sacked in July! To Fit Ward in.... lets be honest to keep Magic & Chris there would have to be major surgery to the 5 ..Don't forget Wards average ..it would make it very difficult .It could be done but would it make the TEAM stronger ?

Ford will announce his team when it suits him and Poole, and not to any timescale you give him. You are once again proving your obsessiveness. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreverblue Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) Ward cannot be fitted in unless we drop Holder or Janowski so Ward will only come into the team if one of those two are injured or out of form, Matt Ford has already said should the need arise, personally i can't see Darcy making an appearance for the pirates next season. All Poole riders know that if they don't perform well they get dropped, we made the mistake of not dropping Mrozka in 2010 and lost, that hurt and will not be allowed to happen again.

Ward will only come into the team IF he's granted a visa........... lets hope he's not; after all with a ban in place he ain't got a job to go to ............. all part of the deserved punishment!
