SteveLyric2 Posted October 4, 2019 Report Share Posted October 4, 2019 7 hours ago, racers and royals said: $64000 dollar question for Monday - has Jason Doyle successfully got out of a Polish contract commitment to be at the Polish Extraleague awards ceremony in Warsaw live on Polish TV ? With the season he's had at Torun who are no longer in the Extraleague, I doubt anyone is that bothered!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont think it will matter to the Poles when anyone races if they want first call on them. As wrong as that is. I have a similar vague recollection, I think it involved Kasprzak and a civic reception though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 (edited) I have a similar vague recollection, I think it involved Kasprzak and a civic reception though. If I remember correctly ~ although I'm probably wrong ~ I think KK put Coventry first in this case and missed the Civic Reception, which was quite surprising considering his reputation?

Steve Shovlar Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 This meeting looks like it’s got two hopes of being on tomorrow. No hope and Bob Hope. And Bob has left the arena. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lefty Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 Would the winners of this tie insist on having the 2nd leg of the final at their home track? Or does BT's schedule call the tune? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He rode for BV in 2009 and, as Neil Watson found, was a great guy to work with. He and I would meet in the office before every home meeting and go through his pay slips to make sure he was happy everything was up to date, then, more often than not, he’d go out and score double figures. But there is no doubt he is an enigma. When he rode at Poole in 2017 he just seemed to close up and no one - management, fans or fellow team members - could get through to him.

Such a shame That bottom sentance and half is true Gordon, nobody could work out what was wrong. Normally he was very playful and mischeivious, but for whatever reason all that stopped. On his night as we all know he's very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolves were involved in a Boxing Day meeting in the 60's. Can't see a problem with doing that ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
