Whatever the rights and wrongs I am surprised Holder has the nerve to turn up in view of the furore he has caused.

 

Hindsight's a wonderful thing Rodders. What's done is done. If Hancock hadn't got crocked then none of this would have happened. Decisions were made quickly and I don't think anyone expected such a fall out but we all make mistakes. Give him a little slack perhaps, he's still risking life and limb for your team despite it all.

7.30PM start, weather is bright sunshine at the moment.

 

Peterborough at full strength and Workington are using RR for Jorgensen, they have Tom Woolley at no 7.

sorry about the start time . . 7.30 PM START .

Tony Steele had a trainee with him, Busy night for him with 8 reruns.

 

Interesting that Proctor wanted to discuss his options with the referee (in a very calm manner) following his exclusion for going on the centre green around the starting gate.

 

It appears with the 2 minutes being close he was told to go the quickest way to the tapes and the start Crew would raise the tapes for him, personally I understood the new rule was as long as you were on track and going towards the starting gate it was ok.

And referee having a mare. Must have been reading how not to officiate a speedway meeting on the way to the EoES!

Yes I thought ref was very poor missed rolling starts for Woolley and Williamson ,and was generally slow putting riders on 2 minutes , with 5/6 races to go and less than 1/2 hour before curfew one would have thought that he would have been a bit sharper on the button,one race he actually had riders on 2 minutes with no tapes in place

you see this all the time some refs allow riders to go round tapes some dont

and yest the 2 minute rule is on track and making your way to tapes

personally id like to see a line maybe 15 metres back from start line if riders arnt in this area then they are out

I thought that he needed to get a shift on, but that curfew, if it exists, must be somewhat flexible. The lights were on and someone was still going round at 10.20pm.

That would have been Olly Greenwood having a spin afterwards

To be honest since the ruling changed I haven’t seen anyone going around the starting gate not get excluded and we have had a few this season who have unfortunately tried it, not sure why riders still do it because they have all been told.

at workington riders aproach the start tapes and the track staff lift them maybe some tracks dont lift tapes for away riders in order to get them to go on centre green and try get them exclueded

Exactly what my mate said. Proctor clearly had a beef with Abbot and Costello at tapes as explained above, very amusing, but why he thought going round on the centre green was ok, buggered if I know. Much like the good old days with someone storming up the box for clarification, good on Proctor, apart from the morons in the crowd booing him. What is the point!
