Okay you want names I shall give you a couple of names...Harris and Dean. So what you got???

I spent a fair amount of time talking to BWD on Friday, perfectly happy at Peterborough this year and was helped enormously this year with machinery and engines.

 

You are talking absolute bollox.

Those names match what was said on Thursday.

 

BWD allegedly told someone in the pits he only agreed to ride as he had finally been paid money owed and that others still waiting.

 

Whether he was just on a wind up or not who knows.

 

If you do let us know - with evidence and names/dates etc of course 😜

He was just being mischievious then - good on him - I like someone with a sense of humour.

Bradley made it clear on Friday when he spoke on the mike that he has been ill, he mentioned the forums and all the crap about him going back to Australia and holiday in Mexico and it was just that utter crap.He spoke to me afterwards and said he still wasnt 100% when he rode the second leg of the cup final at Ipswich but he wanted to give it a go.

And what did Bomber say on Friday?

 

It was noticeable that you evaded answering that part of the question.

 

All the best

Maybe he had no money

I am sure he would not have been asked to pay. This is not Belle Vue!!!!. Of course he could have been denied access to the buffet or if your theory is correct he could have had a few sarnies in lieu of wages.

Crap like this doesn’t help any club let alone one that that’s got an excellent reputation for paying its riders promptly.

 

Thought you'd be used to it now Dick, we've had the same cobblers for many many seasons. I'd say that riders being owed money at some point during the season is pretty standard in speedway where cashflow for those paying the bills is less than consistent. It's a useful forum filler though when things are quiet: just say that someone is owed money!

To be fair you are right but I do know that this sort of talk is damaging to clubs from previous experience.

 

I am sure if this had any substance I would have heard but I can honestly say it’s generally the opposite, Ged’s got a very good name for paying his riders spot on when it’s due.

Good to hear.

 

So you seem to be categorically stating that you know BWD wasnt owed money and it isnt the case he only rode in the 2nd leg once paid and that any comments intimating as such were in jest.
