The passing of Danny Ayres is a tragedy and we as fans have paid our respects by posting messages of condolence on here and other parts of social media, of course there will be other on here closer to the Ayres family who have paid their tributes personally. My post was a perfectly reasonable answer to a perfectly reasonable question posted the other day. How ever hard, the management at both Scunthorpe and Ipswich will need to sign a rider, when that will happen of course is up to each club. 15 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed It's right and respectful that Scunthorpe and Ipswich will want to wait until after Danny's Funeral on the 14th and possibly the post mortem, before making any announcements of team plans and replacements but as with any sport and facet of life as the saying goes "the show must go on" as it will with a lot of respects paid to Danny to come all over the UK no doubt. That's as it should be! Edited February 9, 2020 by HGould punctuation 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's as it should be! If it was my club I'd wait till after the funeral then press on with team plans. As upsetting as losing a rider is, they will eventually have to carry on with the sport! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teaboy279 Posted February 10, 2020 Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 I can imagine a facility where Danny's race jacket is not used for a month and covered by RR as a mark of respect would be allowed, and even the most anti Godfrey fans surely couldn't find fault in that? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s what happened after Lee Richardson died. In fact I think it was about two months before Lakeside signed a replacement and Lee’s position in the pits remained empty in that period as I recall.

That is exactly how it would be if Danny was the incoming rider. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebaron Posted February 20, 2020 Report Share Posted February 20, 2020 This is very difficult. How do we start to replace "The Greatest Showman" ? Yet somehow we must. I have one rider and one rider only in mind for this job. He would be there on his terms. He's a great guy, experienced and would carry the burden well. He would leave us with 0.01 to spare. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
