Workington want 25k for Howarth or he is back at Workington to replace Cook for 1 year can see this getting messy.

Howarth puts in transfer request - if not agreed between all parties within 3 months can then go to arbitration and buying club (eg Sheffield) are told what to pay , unlikely to be 25k.

 

depends if this is what you classify as messy

Holder has been put up for sale by Ford for 25K. 

 

So Kyle for 25K is insane. Yes Holder isn’t the rider he used to be but still and insane price! 

A Ford Holder for £25000 is it a 4 by 4 ?

if Kyle doesn't want to ride for Workington he wont be, and if Workington try to stop him riding I think it could be classed as a restriction of trade, especially as Workington don't own him, in the way the no speedway clubs really own riders

bit of a silly statement there  saying worky dont own him . so who owns him . it was kyle who brought the whole thing up in saying , it depends on workington . so if we dont own him, why did he say that ?

But they do own his registration to ride.

Under what employment law

SCB regulations, which all involved parties have agreed to uphold.

From the preface of those regulations;

"The fact that rules made by a Sports Governing Body have legal authority and are upheld in our courts is
not always appreciated; therefore Promotions (including all its Members and/or Directors), riders, all
persons, licensed or otherwise authorised to enter, participate or officiate at Speedway Meetings are
legally bound by them."

They are self-employed but clubs own riders registrations which is offset against the BSPA bond which is why it is beneficial for clubs to have assets.

 

In this case Workington have Howarth as a club asset so any club wanting to have Howarth in there team would need to agree with Workington, hence why Howarth saying himself it is up to Workington.

They won't they will ask in all likelihood if he wants to ride for them but if the rider declines then he is circulated as available for loan or as may happen a full transfer.
