E I Addio Posted April 28, 2018 Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 The way Lawson has been flying from the gate recently Bomber definitely weakens the Hammers. I remember Jon Cooks famous comment when Chris guested once before “Come on Bomber we know you can’t get out the starting gate but you’re hardly getting out of the pit gate tonight!” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBSC Posted April 28, 2018 Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 Aye definitely weakens them Bomber only scored 12 when he was here 2 weeks ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that case, Richard will not be eligible for the KO Cup legs against Ipswich next Thursday and Friday. 16.5.1(h) is sick or carrying a non-speedway injury for which a Medical Certificate must be supplied to the SCB within 48 hours of the sickness / injury occurring in which case the Rider will receive a mandatory 7 days suspension of his SCB Registration from the day of the meeting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The press statement supplied by Lakeside just refers to its being due to illness. Obviously, though, I hope this means he is not ruled out next week.

If the rulebook says you should be off for 7 days you should be missing for 7 days. Was it not brought in to stop riders picking and choosing their meetings (Lakeside are receiving a facility for him). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will just have to wait and see the "interpretation" of the rule book as usual and what Promotions ate involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSC67 Posted April 28, 2018 Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 Is this one from the Chris Neath book of excuses? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liam Posted April 28, 2018 Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 (edited) Another superb rule. If someone is genuinely ill but is ok five days later to ride I don’t see how they can stop him. Lawson needs to get in touch with Nicholls lawyer if they try and stop him earning a living. Edited April 28, 2018 by liam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is it a stupid rule? Last season there were lots of riders racing 1 night, ill another night and racing the next night. The rules have been changed to stop this as it's the fans who loose out when the riders pick what meetings they race in (the riders caused the rule change). The way they can get round it is you get away with your first illness and then get 7 days off for other times you are ill. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screm Posted April 28, 2018 Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 After last week Berwick have plenty of questions to answer, lets hope they answer them as they will need to be at their best to beat this Lakeside team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2ndbendbeerhut Posted April 28, 2018 Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 But if he now not ill how can Lakeside have a guest for a non speedway injury? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2ndbendbeerhut Posted April 28, 2018 Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 (edited) Because those are the rules.... to stop riders taking the mic by picking and choosing their meetings and denying suporters not seeing them. And having to use R/R. By doing this its a deterrent to the "dodgy burger" that has happened in the past. Yes in this case it means the public wont see the rider in 2 other matches but as a guest is now allowed for the top 3 the fans won't be short changed and will see 7 riders line up.
