Crazy robin Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 There has always been cases where foreign riders will only ride in their own country after coming back from injury & guests were allowed. Don't see anything different here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reliant Robin Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 But his 28 day contract surely would have come to an end so it should have been Adrian back or 28 day ban for him. Kildemand always made it clear to Swindon that he didn't want to ride any longer than the 28day injury cover. But Swindon were not able to re-introduce a rider who had not come back from injury (for them)...and so until then Kildemand had to remain in the declared 1-7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't see anything different here. But wasn't the excuse that he was only fit enough to race once a week and then he immediately rode in two different countries in the same week.

Totally agree & I assume the authorities saw that & acted accordingly which is the way it should be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kildemand always made it clear to Swindon that he didn't want to ride any longer than the 28day injury cover. A 28-day facility is for a 'minimum' of 28 days! The BSPA wouldn't allow a facility for AM being reintroduced in the 1-7 if he wasn't riding so PK was retained in the 1-7 and replaced by North last week. The statement by Rosco on the website plus the interview with Zengi fully explain the situation - with the exception of not knowing how many meetings AM will be returning for?!

SteveLyric2 Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 So finally it seems a confirming announcement can be expected from the Robins management next week, with Darcy on his way back to Oz to sort out the work visa for Swindon!! So who else will Rosco drop, Robins fans?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shameful as it seems true. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watch the crowds flock in. Guaranteed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stratton Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 (edited) Phil Crump was an excellent rider but to me he never quite reached the consistency over a number of seasons of the likes of Collins, Simmons or even Jessup. Darcy has a lot of potential and is good to watch but at the moment I don't think he has achieved as much as Phil did and is not yet as good as Phil at his best. It will be a tremendous waste of talent if he doesn't realise his potential but if he does he could be one of the all time greats. Interesting Aces that you mentioned Crump,Simmons,Jessup,there career's are so similar all THREE of them averaged over 10pts a match for five seasons.Crump also averaged over 11 pts per match in 1975 scoring 25 maximums also in 1974 he scored 14 maximums and 1976 15 maximums.I know Somerton Park had a huge home advantage but 74,75,76 were great seasons for Crump.Jessup had the best world final record reaching six finals where Crump and Simmo badly underachieved only reaching three finals each.

So who else will Rosco drop, Robins fans?? It's hardly a surprise is it - despite your red herrings! I knew he would have to go back to Oz because he can only enter the country on a work visa if his originating location is his home country (with allowable flight changes) Who else to drop - sadly it would need to be one of Zengi or Howarth I think, put someone else in for a month, drop the necessary amounts on the remaining averages and then re-introduce the dropped rider. Because of the limitations on double-uppers I think it will be Howarth that takes a sabbatical. I'm not saying that would happen but I think it is the most likely "solution". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would stick with Zengi as he's an asset of the club unlike Kyle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
