f-s-p Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 Don't think there's much fear of Holder walking away with nothing, at the end of the day Holder deserves his ban. I wonder if he will be the only Holder to be banned. Not my point. If you make a ruling, thats it. Me thinks you cant after that find another rule for the same crime and give another ruling. Not my fight this one, have other problems... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Central Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 Seems a very sensible decision by the SCB and an equally appropriate sentence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bellevueace Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 After Holders slating of speedway in this country i would have thought this wouldnt bother him, he didnt have the courage of his convictions to walk away, the decision has been taken for him, bye bye.

Dave67 Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 Am I right in assuming the ban will start once he coughs up the 3k fine, ala Danny Bird. I.e. If he doesn't pay the ban will just roll on & start if & when he does? If so the fine is more painful than the ban. Unless he crowdfunds it or has a benevolent sponsor?

mrss Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 Ridiculous ruling to ban Holder again. He has served his punishment with the 28 day ban. He hadnt doctored his bike or taken any illegal substance. He simply refused to do something that he considered dangerous. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheReturn Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 . Unless he crowdfunds it or has a benevolent sponsor? I wouldn't be surprised if gullible idiots have already offered to donate towards it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The White Knight Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 speedway is dangerous for goodness sake Yes - but I think he meant that the Track conditions made it even more dangerous. (Holder that is). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
False dawn Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 .....Unless he crowdfunds it.... Now there's an idea. Maybe I could crowdfund my admission fee for Meltdown Thursday. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrss Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 Now the SCB have set a precedent I suppose they will ban Craig Cook for 9 months for hitting an official at the fours on Sunday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just using irony TWK TBH if Holder feels that way, perhaps speedway is not the game for him anymore, no good if you can't or won't give 100% 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Argos Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 (edited) Re his Ban, the length of it will all depends on when he plays his fine, this is what happened to Lee and Bird, you have 30'days to pay your fine, if you haven't then your Ban starts when you do.

Popular Post HenryW Posted August 11, 2017 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 nah not going to happen, monster joe already tweeted that SCB not as professional as FIM....Yeah, the FIM seem to be happy for riders to walk out their events whenever they want and for whatever reason, without handing down any punishment... reference Mr Hancock in Melbourne for more details on this. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
