Best you tell the Government then, as that was copied and pasted from their website...

 So how does Scott get round Section 83 of the Equality Act ?

Even if he gets his case off the ground the season will be over before it gets to a hearing.

True but isn't it a fact the BSPA want to break Jed Rathbone and see this  as one way of doing so. I for one don't believe this is all about Scott Nicholls and Eddie Kennett.

  • Indirect discrimination - putting rules or arrangements in place that apply to everyone, but that put someone with a protected characteristic at an unfair disadvantage.

Not relevant. The 9 'protected characteristics' in law you refer to are - age, disability, gender reassignment, race, religion/belief, sex, sexual orientation, marriage/civil partnership and pregnancy/maternity.

Disagree with this everyone hates Panthers/Rathbone theory.  This rule was in place when Nicholls had a deal lined up to ride for Lakeside.  Panthers hadn't a clue where to go with team buildingso thought they'd wait to see if this overturned most likely after speaking with Nicholls directly who felt who could get it overturned.

If Panthers really felt this way they'd be doing everything to track a sideto win trophiesand not just signing mates of the promotion

It’s got more todo with Jack Hoder missing the 4s and what went on between the BSPA and the Pboro Promotion  from that date on than it had todo with Scott Nicholls .

The non reversal in this New Year maybe but the reintroduction of the restriction was before Boro's involvement.

YOU take a “Bung” so they are Banned from the AGM so they have no say in the forthcoming Season, can’t say I have a great deal of sympathy for the Peterborough Promoters that they now find them selves in,and as for Scott taking legal Action forget it far to expensive and the Season would be over before it was brought to Court

I dont think money would be an issue if Scott had family backing to take on the establishment

I think speedway would run out of money before the Nicholls

Im not saying I believe thats whats planned - just that it wouldnt be the concern if it came to it as a matter of principle

If you have seen the thoughts of Guy Nicholls on Twitter you will know he doesnt hold high regard for how the sport is currently run

I'm told Jack Holder has offered his services for the first couple of weeks. 

He's looking for practise before Poland begins.

Captain Birdseye on the prowl again :rolleyes:

As Peterborough are in such a mess (of there own doing ) would Martin Smolinsk be a Possibility, I see he has signed for a Polish Team, but in all probability I would only get 2 or 3 meetings but riding for Peterborough he could get about 30 to 40, out of interest has anyone any idea what average he would come in on

would hazard  a guess they were chancing there arm again , they were after Lawson  way before christmas so couldn't have  been 100% confident in signing nicholls  . said it the other year and I say it again  you don't sign announce riders until you have your no1 in place lets face it I doubt clubs were falling over there selves  to sign  the likes of toft  grondal
