id say protecting them for up coming meetings,which was a smart thing to do if the case

Dispite coming 3rd in heat 15 Rasmus rode a blinder in that heat,  an what a race it was

that's 1 thing ive seen all season regardless of being in1st or 4th rasmus has rode well all season long  with maybe 1 meeting when he looked a little off the pace

A speedway rider is doing a job that he gets paid for, like everyone eles. " A Boss can sack a person for not doing his job for all sorts of reasons.  Bad at the job. poor time keeping, lazy,  .  In Dan Philips case we simply had a rider not doing his job of scoring  points.  He was never expected to score loads of points because he was back from injury. He's had loads of time and you really have to be a Scunny regular viewer to see how bad at the job he had become! As a promoter Rob had fans moaning, missing meetings. Let this be a lesson to other teams. It could happen to your own team.

So perhaps if what you are saying is correct why did Godfrey re-instate Phillips then as you are implying he didn't have to .

Perhaps with Plymouth Belle Vue IOW and Birmingham all riding the options were no better

Who let all those NL teams ride on a Friday? :lol:;)

But the website said they were going to be using Anders Rowe (of Kent) last night.

so do you have  to run with 6 riders in your team or do you invite him back into the team .? ? ? ?

Similar to what happened with Shuttleworth last year for Workington - Have to use r/r or a NL guest if they're a reserve

it will only  happen to your team IF  Mr Godfrey is in charge of it ! guys a nugget. half carrot, half brain cell . (tic) tock .

if Mr godfrey is as you say a nugget,half carrot,half brain cell what does that make 90% of all the other promoters? maybe the rest should follow in his footsteps and maybe just maybe our beloved sport would not be in such dire straights like it is.

because ,im told[ but not straight from the horses mouth so to speak],that,the SCB threatened a fine for bringing speedway into distripute,so to avoid the fine Danny was put back in

how the hell taking a lad out of the firing line and giving another youngster the chance is doing that ill never know,it was clearly visable last night the lad is really struggling and with several NL riders calling desperate for the a change in the CL i makes it all the more stupid

 

fair play to Phillips for turning up i guess, so dispite being totally off the pace last night again credit due to him for that

he was excellent last night,gated like a train and mega fast once in front,and some of his line showed balls of steel,great to watch

with regard that heat 15,Auty and Allen will get the praise and rightly so but Rasmus deserves alot of credit even tho went from a clear first to 3rd,he did everything possible
