A facility is allowed for a rider in the initial declaration that doesn't start the season. If the team is redeclared, it's then that no facility is allowed. Expand Not exactly. All teams have essentially redeclared as it is the start of the season. Josh was in your declared 1 - 7 at the end of last season therefore you will be allowed a facility. You wouldn't be allowed a facility, for example, Charles Wright, if he was injured elsewhere before your first official fixture as he wasn't previously in your end of season 1-7. 16.5.2.2 No facility is permitted to replace a rider, who although included in a Re-declaration has not made an appearance for that Team since being re-declared. That is why Poole have had to sign Kildeman on a short term contract to replace the missing Chris Holder. They can't get a facility for Holder as he wasn't at Poole last season.

leander Posted April 2, 2018 Report Share Posted April 2, 2018 I stand corrected having just re-read the regulations:- 16.5.2 For an absent rider with a) an assessed MA b ) has been approved in a team’s declared line-up at the start of the season a 28-day Facility may be granted at MC’s discretion Though this seems to contradict 16.5.2.2 above 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4thbender Posted April 4, 2018 Report Share Posted April 4, 2018 Does anyone recall (as I do) the promise made to loyal, long-suffering fans after the shambles at the end of 2017 when the ambulance failed to turn up and the start was delayed by almost an hour? We were told that if we retained our re-entry tickets there would be half-price admission to the first match of 2018. I've not seen any mention of the offer in any promotional publications and there's nothing on the website. Is this an offer that has been conveniently disregarded?

RS50 Posted April 4, 2018 Report Share Posted April 4, 2018 (edited) Was it half price? I thought it was £5.00 off.l Admittedly I did not take too much notice being a season ticket holder. Edited April 4, 2018 by RS50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

graz gp Posted April 6, 2018 Report Share Posted April 6, 2018 Yes Charles was really on the gas. When he missed the gate he was flying around the boards, no fear very good to watch. He will be a great signing for the Tigers.utt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS50 Posted April 22, 2018 Report Share Posted April 22, 2018 Just heard that Todd Kurtz replaced Palm Toft at Leicester. As Palm Toft was replacing Bates does this mean Josh return Is some way off? Thought I heard it would be late April when he would be back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
