scottyfan Posted January 8, 2015 Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 (edited) Like I have said all through fk Darcy Ward we don't need him, He has had chances time and time again and shown us all what a complete tool he is I have no time for him good rider or no bloody good rider. We did fine last year without him and to take the pee even further Ford dedicated the season to Ward that still boils my pee more than anything, Janowski is a more professional rider in demeanor and the way he handles himself also showed real maturity taking the captaincy role this is a rider we need to be signing if he can with the other commitments on his plate this year. Agree about dedicating the season to Ward, What was Ford smoking?? When we won the Elite Shield against Swindon, Ward never rode in either match, the same as he never rode in any play off matches......So how the hell can you dedicate the season to Ward?? Surely it should be Magic that you dedicate the season to, as without him (and the other five sober riders) Poole would have won nothing!!!!

cambpanther Posted January 9, 2015 Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 Could darcy just get a ban from fIM meetings but be aloud to do league racing? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve0 Posted January 9, 2015 Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 Could darcy just get a ban from fIM meetings but be aloud to do league racing? And what kind of message would that be? If you are a professional driver and get caught for drink driving do you think you would be allowed only to do your professional driving but not your leisure driving? Don't see why speedway (or sport in general) would treat this serious issue any differently! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TesarRacing Posted January 9, 2015 Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 Have any reasons been given for all these adjournments. Surely he's entitled to know why? I'd heard it was Darcy that had asked for it to be put back, not the FIM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks to Matt ,Middlo , my clubs for the support #wardtorace2015 maybe it is darcy or poole that have led to these delays. in this weeks star and not for the first time they seem to be saying that they have a reason to challenge the test if he is given a further ban even to the point of getting it overthrown totally with possible claims by poole, darcy, his foreign clubs etc which would tie the fim up in knots for years if this case is anything to go by, maybe they are still making sure everything is correct ? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair comment geejay although not seen SS yet this week. Despite what some fans may think, it may also be the BSPA/SCB (and Polish/Swedish federations) adding their weight to the argument over the prolonged delay, as they could argue that not having Ward in the league is damaging their business (from a bums on seats point of view), when the alleged offence did not take place in any domestic league competition. The Poles and Swedes might take the same view depending on his on-track popularity in those countries?! As I posted on the Darcy Ward thread, the WADA rules and regs say that any hearing should be held in a 'timely manner'! There are several examples of cases where a rider (athlete) can appeal any aspect of the procedure from the day of the testing through any suspension/penalty. This could run and run.....even if he is allowed to race again soon in 2015. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said within a couple of days of the Latvian GP that I suspected the only lesson Darcy would learn is, that if you can afford top quality legal representation you will "get off". I still suspect that might be the case. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyderd Posted January 9, 2015 Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 personally I hope Ward does get the OK to ride for Poole this season as we all know, Holder and Ward will always have time out through injury as neither can stay on there bikes long enough. Only kidding, I love watching Holder and Ward but I still think Janowski deserves a team spot this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pirateandi Posted January 9, 2015 Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 After reading all hats been put etc IMO and that is all it is I see darcys case as being incredibly strong IMO again I can see the ban being from all FIM events and not domestic leagues that he will see the ban being for whatever length have the months that he was already banned for taken into account bit like being in custody prior to crown court case. The reasons I see not receiveing an domestic ban is that whoever is representing him will be too use the right to work policy being a strong mitigating reason amongst potential other reasons. Just my opinion but a more realistic outcome I can see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your bottom two sentances are valid points, but i would think to qualify for the GP series he will be told to go through the GP challenge, either this or 2016.

Just my opinion but a more realistic outcome I can see.Theres a straw - go clutch it!!A total ban wouldnt go against his 'right to work' though would it. He could still stack shelves , pull pints , lay bricks whatever. Realistically the outcome will be a total ban or a clean slate to continue full stop. You cant be a little bit guilty. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dudek wasn't dealt with by the FIM......it was dealt with by the Polish speedway authorities as it took place during a Polish league match.
