Alex2000 Posted July 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2016 Another dimension, When and How? I don't ever remember him riding or signing for Lakeside. when NL weren't allowed assets anymore Eastbourne transferred all of their assets to Lakeside along with the agreement that we could use them or recall them when we needed them so lakeside own our riders like Andrews, BWD,Powell, Dugard and wood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

potts2310 Posted July 19, 2016 Report Share Posted July 19, 2016 Eastbourne haven't done a great job with this, they tweet saying BWD is still contracted to Eastbourne but they very same day say he's a Lakeside asset, how can he be both? Am I missing something here? Do Eastbourne even know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrscambelt Posted July 19, 2016 Report Share Posted July 19, 2016 (edited) If NL clubs weren't allowed assets how could Eastbourne transfer something they did not own? Thats a good point they didnt own anyone? but i did read somewhere that Kent has the same problem with Shanes and it was agreed that any club could have assests if they had signed before a certain date but the life of me i cant think when it was, But again i did read that Bob moved his assests to lakeside, Bridger and JK, Woodward and i think it was a danish rider. so i guess Martin did the same which make them all under one umbrella. but i cant see the problem with lakeside selling Brad if thats the case or is it that they are fighting over the money? to me the effort he put in was 100% and worth every penny he was paid, but on the other hand if i was trying to run a club and was invited to run in the PL as the rumours are its going to change why not want to use your own riders, you could use Brad, Bridger, JK, Woodward, Simon (as i hear he wants to return) almost a good side. but hey i am dissapointed that BWD with BWD as i dont think anyone else would have took a chance on him in the UK. Just lucky that the Dugards took the chance for US all to watch him race, but thats why you pay good money to riders and from what was banded around last year i heard he made around a 20K figure not bad for a NL rider but thats only terrace talk you can get cheap labour or a skillfull one but thats the difference is Price you always pay more for quallity..... and he was quallity. Eastbourne haven't done a great job with this, they tweet saying BWD is still contracted to Eastbourne but they very same day say he's a Lakeside asset, how can he be both? Am I missing something here? Do Eastbourne even know? Think your find he is lakeside asset that Eastbourne have an agreement with lakeside as a feeding club for the future, same as Boston and Kings Lynn use to be, and other clubs in the Uk but i might be wrong, its a bit like Somerset and Poole all under the Gary May and Matt Ford, and iwade and Kent, they all have some sort of Link somewhere deep in the mix of it all.

( something BWD has got this yeear at Somerset too), shame young Brits can't get these kind of offers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( something BWD has got this yeear at Somerset too), shame young Brits can't get these kind of offers If thats the case you can see why the effort and money put into Brad just walks away with giving nothing back to the club. Well we all live and learn, maybe English riders will get the chance now but the money that Eastbourne could have made in his name on the books has been lost, But Brad is his own man and he will do what is best for him and only for him, dont forget who looked after you when you wanted to come to the Uk (oh you have forgotten already) it was not somerset.

hammertofall Posted July 19, 2016 Report Share Posted July 19, 2016 What's all the fuss about ? BWD was brought in to do a job which he did with exception . He now has no future at Eastbourne so I making his way as best as he sees for. He is self employed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GASBLOKE Posted July 19, 2016 Report Share Posted July 19, 2016 Bloody hell, what a lot of fuss over nothing. I was at the Kent/Brummies match last night, and we think we've got problems !!!!!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at the Kent/Brummies match last night, and we think we've got problems !!!!!!!! your right lets forget about the selfish self centered Kiwi lol lets move on to the English lads that are doing it for us this year, Tom Brennan is back which for me seem a bit early but i guess somebody knows what they are doing maybe a few practice laps will help him on Saturday morning. Its going to be a good one this week tough for both teams with the outcome being very close but a home win for the eagles by ? how many i am not sure i like to think about 8 but could be less fingers crossed and everyone is safe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammertofall Posted July 20, 2016 Report Share Posted July 20, 2016 All seems very harsh on Bradley. He did a good job for you last season. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazzac Posted July 20, 2016 Report Share Posted July 20, 2016 I expect all this nonsense will mean he probably wouldn't want to ride for us again in the future anyway. At the end of the day a rider will only ride where he wants to disregarding who's asset he is,I imagine he'd now think twice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex2000 Posted July 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2016 (edited) All seems very harsh on Bradley. He did a good job for you last season. Exactly what I think... Anyway If we brought him over he knows that, not many people live with their parents forever. Moving to a PL club would do him good as they can call him to ride for them as he is useless to us now he cant ride this league ( he can only make us money from loan out fee's) . It could have been handled better by Somerset but there is no need to exaggerate on this until the deal is done. Just let him go and make a name for himself!

TurnTwo Posted July 20, 2016 Report Share Posted July 20, 2016 Surely the eb promos want as much money for him as poss? Or make any money back have they said how much he cost them roughly couldn't have been cheap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrscambelt Posted July 24, 2016 Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 (edited) We'll have to say I was not sure about Tom Brennans quick return I also thought he was too young at 15 to be racing but I have to say I was wrong. 100% wrong.Tom brought the house down in heat 2 with a great race from last out the start to hit the front with in a lap with a great use of the wide outside. Then to do it again in heat 8 but this time the inside run. shows the kid is thinking and not just a flat out rider who look take his life in his hands and try to win everything straight away. maybe the crash a few weeks ago was a blessing where he is now learning to think about things and what a great little rider he was.If the kid learns to start then I have to say I think we got ourselfs a real winner the half pint kid looks to be a local hero.Well done Tom your worth the admission fee alone with the great passes you have made at the weekend..

TurnTwo Posted July 25, 2016 Report Share Posted July 25, 2016 They've beaten birmingham, they've beaten kent, they beat cradley and kings lynn. I think this team can go all the way even with only 6 men! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
