Gazc Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 (edited) Wells and Auty to guest for Garritty and Berge r/r for Steady. Lets hope Bates doesn't get a suspension for his antics today at Glasgow, That could be a real possibility he was an absolute disgrace today and the Ref had to come from his box and take him for a meeting from what was said after the meeting (speedway meeting) it will be in his report and action against Bates will be taken.

Solidmango Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 And so it should be. One thing in Glasgow's power is to ban his mechanic. I would expect that this should happen given the way he acted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoda Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 think if josh was banned then so would Rene after all he did square up to josh, which caused it . From my view just looked like hard riding You can ban a mechanic from the stadium but he will just get another one , no big loss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlieboy Posted October 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 (edited) If he does then we will need ANOTHER guest !!!!!! How comical would it be if we won the play offs with a team littered with guests ? That might upset one or two people !!!!!

Bates was the instigator off the whole incident and had a go at anything that moved in the end up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spin king Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 he will more than likely cop a hefty fine for him and his mechanic. Don't think he will get a ban, if did then it would more than likely be suspended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are probably right if it had just have been Rene he attacked but he then went on and attacked Aaron Summers and then had a go at a member off the track staff he really let himself down today and i wouldn't rule out a ban. I have never seen anything like it it was that bad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't there today obviously, but I doubt it was worse than the Paul Cooper/Claus Vissing incident at Sheffield a few years ago, I think only fines were issued for that.

Can't comment as i never saw that but i suppose it will be what it is, some form off punishment will come his way whatever they decide is appropriate.

That s why I said fine for him and failure to control his mechanic which is what Vissing cop on that night. The money he earn't from the meeting will have gone in fines.

He's from Workington , been reffing a few years now . Didn't envy him his job today trying to sort sort out the guilty parties from the melee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair he was on the track immediately and up to the pits i know he had Bates in the potacabin not sure if anyone else were brought in after that would imagine the two team managers at some point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cue Ball Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 It may depend on if there were any mitigating circumstances- from what I have read, Bach had words with Bates after the race, but nobody seems to know what was said. It's not normally like Josh to lose his temper when he is riding well (which judging from his score he was) so something must have been amiss. Not Josh's biggest fan, mainly because he tends not to ride using his head, but he doesn't often get himself into bother Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pictures are now slowly appearing on Facebook etc and clearly show Bates getting off his bike and hitting Bach multiple times. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz: one question. How does Josh Bates have a fight with himself? Surely you should mention the Glasgow rider in question as well? Or was Rene Bach a complete angel who didn't have words with Bates after the race?
